Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix it gently with your hands until just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing during cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them over. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, slice the hamburger buns in half. Place them cut-side down on the grill or skillet for about 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden and toasted.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place the cooked cheeseburger patty on top, followed by pickles, lettuce leaves, and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with additional ketchup and mustard on the side, if desired.
