Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until combined. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty after flipping. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties 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, layer lettuce, a cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, onion rings, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately while hot and enjoy your Classic Watch Burger!
