Classic Beef Burger Recipe

 Sure thing! Here’s a classic burger recipe that you can customize to your taste:


### **Classic Beef Burger Recipe**


#### **Ingredients:**


**For the Patties:**

- 1 ½ pounds ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat is ideal for juiciness)

- 1 teaspoon salt

- ½ teaspoon black pepper

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

- 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)

- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)


**For Assembly:**

- 4 burger buns

- 4 slices cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choice)

- Lettuce leaves

- Tomato slices

- Onion slices (raw or grilled)

- Pickles

- Ketchup

- Mustard

- Mayonnaise


#### **Instructions:**


1. **Prepare the Patties:**

   - In a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings (garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce). Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.

   - Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾-inch thick. Press a small dimple into the center of each patty with your thumb to help them cook evenly and prevent puffing up in the middle.


2. **Cook the Patties:**

   - Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, lightly oil it.

   - Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer them more well-done. For cheeseburgers, add a slice of cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

   - Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking.


3. **Toast the Buns:**

   - While the patties are resting, split the burger buns and toast them lightly on the grill or in a toaster for added texture.


4. **Assemble the Burgers:**

   - Spread condiments like ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.

   - Add lettuce leaves, tomato slices, onion slices, and pickles as desired.

   - Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top of the veggies.

   - Top with the other half of the bun.


5. **Serve:**

   - Serve the burgers with your favorite sides, like fries, chips, or a salad. Enjoy!


Feel free to add your favorite toppings or mix-ins to personalize your burger. You can also experiment with different types of cheese or buns to find your perfect combination.
