Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form into 2 equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

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

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns and toast them lightly on a separate skillet or on the grill.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite side, such as fries or chips.
