Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Use your hands to mix the ingredients thoroughly until evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Shape the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty that is slightly larger than the burger buns, as they will shrink while cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them over. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a leaf of lettuce, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, pickles, mustard, and ketchup. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the double chili burgers immediately with additional condiments on the side if desired.
