Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

• 4 hamburger buns

• 4 slices of cheese

• Lettuce, tomato, onion, and condiments of your choice

Instructions

• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well with your hands.
• Divide the meat into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties that are about 1/2 inch thick.
• Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
• If using cheese, add a slice to each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover the skillet or grill to melt the cheese.
• Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.
• Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on each bun and adding lettuce, tomato, onion, and condiments of your choice.

Notes

• When shaping the burger’s patties, avoid overworking the meat as this can result in tough burgers. Avoid touching the meat at all costs.
• Before cooking, press your thumb into the center of each burger to prevent it from puffing up.
• To avoid the burger’s patties sticking to the skillet, make sure to heat it up before adding the patties.
