Method
- Divide the beef into 4 equal portions and gently form thin patties slightly wider than the buns; season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until very hot.
- Cook the patties for about 3 minutes per side for medium doneness, pressing lightly once so they sear evenly.
- Lay a slice of cheddar on each patty during the last minute and cover briefly so the cheese melts.
- Butter the cut sides of the buns and toast them on the griddle until golden.
- Spread ketchup and mustard on the buns, then stack lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and the cheeseburger patty.
- Close the burgers and serve immediately.
