Experience the classic taste of an American burger, made with juicy beef patties, melted cheddar cheese, and a medley of fresh toppings, all sandwiched between toasted hamburger buns.
Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef. 1/2 tsp salt. 1/4 tsp black pepper. 4 hamburger buns. 4 slices of cheddar cheese. 4 lettuce leaves. 4 slices of tomato. 4 slices of red onion. 4 pickle slices. Ketchup and mustard for topping.
Instructions: Preheat grill or stovetop pan to medium-high heat. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Season each patty with salt and pepper. Place the patties on the grill or pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty and cover to melt the cheese. While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, a slice of red onion, and a pickle slice. Spread ketchup and mustard on the top half of the buns, then place them on top of the assembled burgers. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
