Savor the classic American hamburger, featuring juicy ground beef, melted cheddar, and fresh toppings nestled in a soft bun. Ideal for a weekend barbecue or a cozy weeknight dinner with family and friends.

Ingredients

  • 453.6 g ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 4 hamburger buns buns
  • 1 cup lettuce
  • 1 large tomato
  • 1/2 cup pickles

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    While the grill is heating, divide the ground beef into four equal portions and gently form them into patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

  3. 3

    Season both sides of the patties with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them. If you're using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  5. 5

    As the patties cook, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Assemble your hamburgers by placing the cooked patties on the bottom half of each bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and any other desired toppings.

  7. 7

    Finish by placing the top half of the bun on each assembled hamburger.

  8. 8

    Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic hamburgers!
