Method

Preparing the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick.

Grilling the Burgers

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    After flipping, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for another 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the burgers are cooking, wash and prepare the lettuce, slice the tomato, and thinly slice the onion.

  2. 7

    Toast the Buns (optional)

    If desired, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  3. 8

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a layer of lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, slices of tomato, and onion. Add ketchup and mustard to taste, then top with the other half of the bun.
