Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
2. Crack the egg into the mixture and blend thoroughly with clean hands until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
1. Divide the beef mixture into six equal portions.
2. Shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick, ensuring they are slightly larger than the hamburger buns as they will shrink during cooking.
1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Place the beef patties in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. If using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat and follow the same cooking time.
3. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty, allowing it to melt.
1. While the patties are cooking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in another skillet over medium heat.
2. Split the hamburger buns and place them cut-side down in the skillet. Toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Alternatively, you can toast the buns on the grill with the cut side facing down.
1. Place each cheese-topped patty on the bottom half of the toasted buns.
2. Add any additional toppings of your choice, such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, or sauce.
3. Cover with the top half of the buns.
1. Serve your beef burgers hot with your favorite side dishes, such as fries, coleslaw, or a fresh garden salad.
Tips:
- For a juicier burger, avoid overmixing the ground beef mixture.
- To ensure even cooking, make indentations in the center of each burger patty before cooking.
- For extra flavor, you can add your favorite herbs and spices to the ground beef mixture.
- If you prefer a more caramelized bun, add a little butter to the pan before toasting the buns.
- To prevent the burgers from falling apart, make sure to chill the patties in the refrigerator for at least 15-30 minutes before cooking.
- For best results, cook the burgers on medium-high heat to get a nice sear on the outside while keeping the inside juicy.
Serve these scrumptious beef burgers on toasted buns with a slice of melted cheddar cheese for a meal that's sure to satisfy. Whether you are cooking for family or friends, these burgers are guaranteed to impress.
