Ingredients
- 1 pound ground sirloin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
- 4 hamburger buns
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, ketchup, mustard
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground sirloin, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, breadcrumbs, and beaten egg. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty that is approximately 1/2-inch thick.
- Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the patties to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
- While the burgers are cooking, prepare the hamburger buns by toasting them in a toaster or under the broiler. If desired, add cheese to the tops of the burgers during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
- Place a cooked patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with desired toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, and mustard. Add the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
