Heat a well seasoned, large cast iron skillet over high heat for 1 minute.

Section the beef into fourths. Form each fourth into a patty. Press an indent in the center so it stays flat while cooking. Season with salt and pepper.

Add two patties at a time to the hot cast iron. Cook for 3 minutes on the first side. Cook for 2 minutes on the second side. Top each patty with a slice of cheese and set off to the side.
-
Cook the remaining two beef patties the same way.

Add a bit of oil to a skillet. Cook the eggs until the white is no longer jiggly and translucent. Sunny side up, with a runny yolk is the preferred burger egg.

Pop the buns under the broiler for a minute to toast them.
