Ingredients

Scale

Ground Beef

  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)

Cheese

  • 4 slices American or cheddar cheese

Burger Buns

  • 4 soft, fresh burger buns

Seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Toppings

  • Lettuce
  • Tomato slices
  • Pickles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Patties: Start by combining the ground beef with your chosen seasonings in a bowl. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, then form into patties that are slightly wider than your buns.
  2. Grill or Cook the Patties: Heat your grill or skillet 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. Add the Cheese: In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty and cover the grill or skillet to let it melt perfectly.
  4. Toast the Buns: While the cheese melts, toast your burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
  5. Assemble the Burgers: Place the cooked patties on the bottom half of the buns, then stack on your favorite toppings and condiments. Finish with the top half of the bun.

Notes

  • Don’t Overmix: Keep your meat mixture loose to ensure tender burgers.
  • Rest Before Serving: Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain juices.
  • Heat Control: Adjust your cooking temperature based on the thickness of your patties.
  • Experiment with Toppings: Don’t be afraid to mix and match your favorite toppings for a unique flavor.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: For perfectly cooked burgers, aim for an internal temperature of 160°F.
