Sure! Here's a recipe for a delicious classic cheeseburger!

**Classic Cheeseburger Recipe**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for the best flavor)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- 4 burger buns
- Lettuce leaves
- Tomato slices
- Pickles
- Ketchup and mustard (to taste)

**Instructions:**

1. **Prepare the Patty:** In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into 4 equal-sized patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

2. **Grill the Patties:** Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them.

3. **Add Cheese:** After flipping, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the burger reaches your desired doneness.

4. **Toast the Buns:** While the burgers are cooking, you can lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in the skillet for added flavor.

5. **Assemble the Burger:** On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cheeseburger patty, tomato slices, and pickles. Add ketchup and mustard to taste, then top with the other half of the bun.

6. **Serve:** Enjoy your classic cheeseburger with your favorite sides!
