Postpone any urge to order food if you are close to going home!
Instead, use your precious college dollars to buy quality ingredients on your way home, i.e. lean beef, humanely raised--less fat, more flavor, better all around for you and the environment. And with the classic, thin "diner-style" cheeseburgers, one pound will give you roughly 5 patties--so, why not invite some friends over while you are at it!
One of the best executions of this concept I experienced at Gott's Roadside Diner in Napa, California. If you are going to indulge in red meat once in a while...do it in style with the best...make it totally worth it! Expect no less!

4. Use a large-bottom bowl or rolling pin to flatten to 1/4" inch thick. Salt & Pepper!
5. Heat your skillet on MED-HIGH with a drizzle of olive oil and 1 tsp butter.
6. Make sure all patties have room in the skillet.
7. Use a spatula / flipper to create pressure on the patties while you sear the meat, approx 1-2 minutes until carmelized.
8. Flip the burger and brown another 1-2 minutes. Turn the heat off.
9. Add your cheese.
10. Build a better burger!
