THE BEST GRILLED BURGERS

When summer nights call for a grilled burger, this one is our go-to. We season only the outside of each patty right before grilling to help a build a nice crust. Our trick for forming the patties is a real time saver, especially if you are cooking for a crowd. You can also form them the day before; place in an airtight container with parchment paper in between to help with party-day prep.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds ground chuck (80/20)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grates
Four 1-ounce slices Cheddar (optional)
1 large red onion, cut into four 1-inch thick rounds
4 leaves green leaf lettuce
4 slices beefsteak tomato
4 seeded hamburger buns
Mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup, for serving
8 dill pickle chips
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.

Steps:

  • Form the ground beef into four 8-ounce patties. A quick and easy way to do this is to divide the meat into 4 piles. Place a pile on the top of a deli container lid. Take a second deli container lid and place the top of it against the meat. Press down evenly and firmly and watch as a perfect patty forms. Repeat with the remaining meat. Make an indentation in the middle of each patty with your thumb to keep the burger from shrinking as it cooks.
  • Sprinkle each patty on both sides with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with oil. Grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 4 more minutes for medium-rare. For cheeseburgers, top with 1 slice cheese during the last minute of cooking if desired; cover the grill to melt. Remove to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • While the burgers cook, place the onion slices on the grill (try to keep them together in a disk). Cook until they are golden on one side, about 4 minutes, then flip with a metal spatula and sprinkle generously with salt. Cook on the other side until the onions are lightly charred and softened through, about 4 minutes, and transfer to a plate.
  • Right before serving, toast the buns cut-side down on the grill. Top the bottom bun with a burger patty and layer with grilled onion, lettuce and a slice of tomato. Spread the inside of the top of each bun with some mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup. Arrange the pickle chips on top. Flip over to top the burgers and secure with a toothpick if desired.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 8 burgers, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 1/2 lbs 80% ground beef, the best grade and freshest you can get at least choice
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • From the package VERY gently form into 8 burgers. Do not over press, squeeze or mix the meat in anyway. Save that for meatloaf.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Grill over high heat covered, I use charcoal,for 4 to 6 min per side depending on your preference, flipping at the halfway point. Add cheese at the flip if you wish. Serve on toasted buns with ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc. I like mine plain.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beef: Use a blend of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef for the best flavor and texture.
  • Season the beef liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce for a classic burger flavor.
  • Don't overwork the beef: Mix the ingredients together just until combined, otherwise the burgers will be tough.
  • Form the burgers gently: Use your hands to gently shape the beef into patties, avoiding compacting the meat.
  • Make a well in the center of each burger: This will help prevent the burgers from puffing up in the middle while cooking.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat: This will help sear the burgers and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
  • Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes per side: Depending on thickness of burger. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the burgers reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you'll be able to grill up delicious burgers that will be the hit of your next cookout. So fire up the grill and get grilling!
