Method
- 1.
Shape the beef patties — In a bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into patties slightly wider than the burger buns.
- 2.
Grill and melt the cheese — Heat the grill to high and brush the patties lightly with vegetable oil. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness, placing a slice of cheddar on each patty in the last minute so it melts.
- 3.
Toast the burger buns — Slice the burger buns in half and toast the cut sides on the grill for about 1 minute until lightly golden.
- 4.
Dress the bun bottoms — Spread ketchup, Dijon mustard and mayonnaise on the toasted bun bottoms. Layer with lettuce, tomato and red onion.
- 5.
Assemble the cheeseburger — Place a cheese-topped patty on each bun base, add pickle slices, then close with the top bun and serve immediately.
