Classic Burger Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Patties

   Divide the pound of Angus beef into two equal portions (8 ounces each). Gently form each portion into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center to help them cook evenly. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Grill the Patties

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the beef patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Grill for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium doneness.

3. 3

   Prepare the Buns

   While the patties are grilling, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them lightly on the grill until golden brown.

4. 4

   Assemble the Burger

   On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce, the grilled patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and onion. Top with ketchup and mustard, then place the top half of the bun on each burger.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of sides.
