Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce.
Gently mix the ingredients together using your hands, ensuring that the seasonings are evenly distributed without overmixing the beef.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape into patties, each about 3/4-inch thick, creating a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb. This helps the patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up.
Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the patties on the grill or in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side, until a nice crust has formed.
Flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (an instant-read thermometer should read 160°F for medium done).
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Close the grill lid or cover the skillet with a lid to help melt the cheese.
Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the cheeseburger patties on buns with your choice of toppings and condiments.
