Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 4 bun hamburger buns
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter for toasting buns
  • 4 slice cheddar cheese
  • 4 leaf lettuce
  • 1 piece tomato, sliced
  • 0.5 piece red onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 slice pickle chips
  • 0.25 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a bowl, gently mix the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form 4 patties about 0.75 inch thick with a slight dimple in the center.
  • Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat and add the oil.
  • Cook patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 160°F.
  • Top each patty with a slice of cheese during the last 30 seconds to melt.
  • Spread butter on the cut sides of the buns and toast in the skillet until golden.
  • Assemble burgers: bun, patty, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and desired condiments. Serve immediately.

Notes

For juicier burgers, avoid overmixing the meat and let the patties rest 5 minutes after cooking. Swap cheddar for American or pepper jack if you prefer.
