Tips:
- Choose lean ground beef. This will help keep the burgers healthy and prevent them from becoming too greasy.
- Use fresh, flavorful ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the burgers will be.
- Don't overcook the burgers. Overcooked burgers are dry and tough. Cook them until they are just cooked through, or to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the burgers rest before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the burgers with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
