Quarter Pounder with Cheese Recipe

While McDonald’s keeps their Quarter Pounder with Cheese recipe a secret, you can whip up a delicious homemade version that captures its essence! Here’s what you’ll need:

Ingredients:

For the patties:

  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 lean)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

For the assembly:

  • 2 hamburger buns
  • 2 slices American cheese
  • 2 dill pickles, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1/4 small white onion, thinly sliced Vegetable oil

Instructions:

  • Form the patty: Mix ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Divide into two equal portions and shape into thick patties slightly larger than your buns. Press a small indentation in the center of each to keep them flat while cooking.
  • Cook the patty: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat with a light coating of oil. Cook each patty for 4–5 minutes per side, or until done to your liking.
  • Assemble the burger: Toast the buns, spread ketchup and mustard on both sides, then layer on a patty, a slice of cheese, pickles, and onions. Finish with the top bun, and enjoy your fresh, homemade burger!

Tips:

  • For that authentic McDonald’s taste, try using a blend of chuck and sirloin ground beef.
  • No griddle? No problem a large frying pan will cook the patties perfectly.
  • Adjust the ketchup and mustard amounts to match your personal flavor preference.
  • Want to make it your own? Add toppings like lettuce, tomato, or even BBQ sauce for a customized twist.
