Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 4 pieces slices of cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 4 pieces sliced tomato
- 4 rings sliced onion
- 4 tablespoons ketchup
- 4 tablespoons mustard
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick, ensuring the edges are slightly thicker than the center to prevent puffing.
Step 3
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and allow it to heat until shimmering.
Step 4
Place the burger patties into the skillet, leaving space between each one. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on the first side, undisturbed, to develop a proper sear.
Step 5
Flip the burgers using a wide spatula and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium doneness, or to your preferred level. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each burger in the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
Step 6
While the burgers are cooking, spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides of the burger buns. Toast them on a separate skillet or grill pan over medium heat until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese. Top with a slice of tomato, an onion ring, and a drizzle of ketchup and mustard, or other condiments of your choice. Finally, add the top bun.
Step 8
Serve the Sizzle Burger Hamburgers immediately while hot. Enjoy!
