Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

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

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

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

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the cheese is melting, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Place the lettuce, tomato slices, cooked patties with melted cheese, onion slices, and pickles on top. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
