Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound hamburger 80/20 blend or 85/15 blend
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 Hamburger buns
Optional Topping Ingredients
- Cheese slices Use your favorite, we like cheddar cheese
- Tomato slices
- Leaf lettuce
- Onion slices
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, gently mix the ground beef, salt, pepper and garlic salt.
- Divide the dough into four 4-ounce patties. Make them a bit bigger than the hamburger buns because the burgers will shrink when cooked.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat to medium-high heat for about two minutes. Add the olive oil.
- Add the patties, and cook for about 4 minutes for medium-rare and 5 minutes for medium. Flip the burgers, top with cheese slices if using and cook for another 4 minutes.
Building the burgers
- If you like, toast the burger buns.
- Top the bottom bun with the hamburger or cheeseburger, pickles slices, tomato slice, and lettuce then add the top bun.
