Cheese Burger on a skillet

I like to season my patties with Garlic powder, seasoning salt and onion powder. Sometimes I add chopped onion in there too. I use 93/7 hamburger meat. Most people use 80/20 for the fat, but I try to make things healthier when I can. Plus everyone always compliments our burgers. So we must be doing it right! I make 4 patties from a pound of meat. 

Use a nice skillet  to make sure you get that nice brown caramelization on the patty. It gives it great flavor.  Do not touch it for 4 min then flip and leave for another 4 min. That will give you a no pink patty. If you want it medium then do 3 min by 3 min. Rare then 2 by 2. Always check by temp as well to see if its where you want it. 

Melt the cheese with a metal bowl on top or a lid for the last 30 seconds. Add the toppings of your choice. This time I added;

Make sure to toast your bun. I did mine in the toaster on the bagel setting, but if you are doing this on the grill just set it on the grill.
