1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon brown mustard (French’s “Hearty Deli” is good)
1 sesame seed hamburger bun
1/4 pound ground beef
1 slice American cheese
1-2 tomato slices
1-2 lettuce leaves, chopped
1/2 tablespoon ketchup
2 tablespoons chopped onion
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and the brown mustard. Set aside.
Grill the face of each of the buns on a griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
Roll the ground beef into a ball and pat it out until it’s approximately the same diameter as the bun.
Cook meat on hot griddle or frying pan for about 5 minutes per side or until done. Be sure to lightly salt and pepper each side of the patty.

On Bottom Bun
beef patty
American cheese slice
1-2 tomato slices
