Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Season burger patties with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side, smashing slightly for crispy edges. Top each patty with a slice of cheese during the last minute of cooking.
Step 3: While the burgers cook, toast buns in a skillet with a little butter or oil until golden.
Step 4: Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 5: Layer each burger with two cheesy patties, sliced onions, pickles, and any other toppings you like.
Step 6: Wrap the burgers in foil for a few minutes to steam slightly—just like Five Guys!
Step 7: Serve hot with fries or chips for the full fast-food-at-home experience.
Storage Information:
Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave and reassemble fresh burgers when ready to eat. Avoid storing with buns to prevent sogginess.
