Burger Patties

Buns

Method

Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing while cooking.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt the cheese.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns and Toppings

    While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce leaves. Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster if desired.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burgers

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