Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
4 slices cheddar cheese
4 pieces hamburger buns lightly toasted
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

Fixings

4 leaves lettuce washed
1 large tomato sliced
1 medium onion sliced
1/2 cup pickles sliced
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup mustard

Instructions

1 Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
2 Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and shape each into a patty. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
3 Place the patties on the preheated grill or skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side.
4 Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each one. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.
5 While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.
6 Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked patty with cheese, sliced tomato, onion, and pickles.
7 Spread ketchup and mustard on the top half of each bun, then place on top of the assembled burger.
8 Serve immediately, accompanied by your favorite side dishes.
