Method

Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, making them slightly larger than the burger buns.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    During the last minute of cooking, place the burger buns cut side down on the grill or skillet to toast.

Toppings

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Slice the tomato into thick rounds and the onion into rings.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a cooked patty, followed by lettuce, tomato, and onion. Place the top half of the bun on the assembled burger.
