Divide ground beef into four equal-sized balls. Place one ball on a cutting board or clean surface.
Lightly oil the bottom of a flat plate. Press the plate firmly down onto the beef ball to smash it into a thin patty.
Season the top of the raw patties with salt.
Squeeze a generous amount of yellow mustard onto each patty and use a spoon to spread it evenly across the surface.
Season the mustard-covered side with freshly cracked black pepper.
Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place a patty mustard-side down into the hot pan.
While the first side cooks, season the top side of the patty in the pan with more mustard, salt, and pepper.
