It's a mixture of all the things you'd probably put in/on a hamburger, spread on the halves of the hamburger buns. It's so easy that kids can make it, although they'll need adult help with the broiling. Men love it too, so it would be great for a poker game or Superbowl party. Get "moosh-ing" and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef. An 80/20 blend of ground chuck and ground sirloin is a good option for burgers, as it provides a good balance of flavor and juiciness.
  • Season the ground beef simply. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all you need to create a delicious burger. Don't overdo it with the seasonings, as you don't want to overpower the flavor of the beef.
  • Form the burgers gently. Don't pack the ground beef too tightly, as this will make for a tough burger. Instead, form the burgers loosely and gently, using your hands.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent the burgers from drying out. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Top the burgers with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. You can also get creative and add your own unique toppings, such as avocado, bacon, or a fried egg.

Conclusion:

Open-face hamburgers are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a casual get-together or a weeknight dinner. With so many different topping options, there is sure to be an open-face hamburger that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy meal, give open-face hamburgers a try.
