- Season the beef well: Use a generous amount of Jamaican jerk seasoning to give the burgers a bold and spicy flavor. You can also add other spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, to taste.
- Don't overmix the beef: Overmixing the beef will make the burgers tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Form the burgers gently: Use your hands to gently form the beef into patties. Avoid pressing on the burgers too hard, as this will also make them tough.
- Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the burgers while keeping the inside juicy.
- Don't overcook the burgers: Overcooked burgers will be dry and tough. Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or 4-5 minutes per side for medium.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more flavorful.
