Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground beef: Opt for ground beef with a fat content of 80/20 or 85/15 for juicy and flavorful burgers.
- Season the beef well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning for a classic Italian flavor profile.
- Don't overmix the beef: Overmixing can result in tough burgers. Mix the beef just until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Form the burgers gently: Handle the beef gently to avoid compacting it. Form the burgers into patties that are about 3/4 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.
- Make a thumbprint in the center of each patty: This will help prevent the burgers from puffing up in the middle while cooking.
- Preheat your grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) before cooking the burgers.
- Grill the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side: Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F for medium-rare, 165°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Conclusion:
These grilled Italian hamburgers are a delicious and easy-to-make weeknight meal. With their juicy beef patties, flavorful Italian seasoning, and gooey melted cheese, they're sure to be a hit with the whole family. Serve them on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. Enjoy!
