Start by collecting everything you need. It’s essential! Freshness is key, especially with those veggies and that beautiful beef. You want top-notch ingredients to recreate that special In-N-Out vibe at home.

Form your beef into even patties. Season them with just a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Too much seasoning can mask the natural flavors of the beef.

Heat up your grill or skillet until it’s smoking hot. Place your patties on it, and resist the urge to press them down. Flipping them only once allows those juices to stay locked in. Cook for about three minutes on each side for that perfect medium.

Lightly butter the insides of your burger buns and place them on the grill for a minute or two until golden brown. This simple step will elevate your burger experience.

Begin with the bottom bun. Layer on the lettuce, then place the patty, cheese, and fresh tomato slices. Top it off with In-N-Out sauce and whatever other toppings your heart desires (like grilled onions or jalapeños!). Then, cap it with the top bun.

You can’t have an In-N-Out burger without those crispy fries. Slice your potatoes into strips, rinse to remove some starch, and fry them in hot oil until they achieve that golden-brown hue.

Grab your creation and take a huge, satisfying bite. Let the flavors burst in your mouth. Don’t forget to pair your meal with a classic shake or soda!
