Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground beef (95% lean)
- 4 Whole wheat hamburger buns
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 12 slices Sliced pickles
- 2 tablespoons Mustard

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape each part into a patty approximately 1/2 inch thick.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat hamburger buns on a separate pan or toaster.
Once cooked, allow the burger patties to rest for a couple of minutes.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked patty.
Add a tomato slice on top of each patty, then 3 slices of pickles.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of mustard and ketchup on the top half of each bun.
Place the top bun over the assembled ingredients and serve immediately.
