Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 pieces gluten-free burger buns
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 4 tablespoons ketchup
- 4 teaspoons mustard
- 4 tablespoons gluten-free mayonnaise
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until seasoned evenly.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, slightly larger than the buns, to allow for shrinkage during cooking.
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the toppings: wash the lettuce leaves and slice the tomato and red onion thinly.
Toast the gluten-free burger buns on the grill or in a pan until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers: Spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottoms of each bun. Top with the lettuce, a burger patty with melted cheese, slices of tomato, and red onion. Add a tablespoon of ketchup and a teaspoon of mustard on top of the patty.
Finish with the top bun. Serve immediately, with your favorite gluten-free sides.
