Juiciest Hamburgers Ever image

No more dry, lackluster burgers. These are juicy, and spices can be easily added or changed to suit anyone's taste. Baste frequently with your favorite barbeque sauce. If you find the meat mixture too mushy, just add more bread crumbs until it forms patties that hold their shape.

HAMBURGER PATTIES



Hamburger Patties image

Perfect burgers every time! There is quite a debate about the origin of the popular American hamburger. I will side with the Wisconsin theory, and attribute this recipe to the Midwest U.S. region.

Provided by PanNan

Categories     Meat

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lbs ground beef (80 - 85% lean, more lean is too dry)
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Sometimes I vary the seasonings- using a steak seasoning or Cajun seasoning instead of salt and pepper.
  • Mix ingredients with your hands using a light touch.
  • Don't be tempted to overmix.
  • If you do, it becomes too dense.
  • When charcoal grilling, add 1/2 cup water to the beef mixture to keep it from drying out.
  • For pan frying, don't use a nonstick pan- it won't brown as well, and heat some oil in the pan before adding burgers to keep the burgers from sticking and to help sear and form a nice brown, crispy exterior.
  • Either method will take about 10- 12 minutes of cooking time, depending on thickness of patty, temperature of heat source and your preference (we like ours medium cooked).
  • Note: when pan-frying don't be tempted to press down and squeeze all the juice out, just turn them more often (turn only once on the grill).

Best Hamburger Patty Recipe (Grilled or Stovetop) image

Best Hamburger Patty Recipe - Thick or thin, made on the grill or stovetop, this is the best and easiest all-purpose recipe for perfect hamburger patties every time!

Provided by Sommer Collier

Categories     dinner     Main     Main Course

Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds ground chuck
½ cup crushed saltine crackers (or Panko breadcrumbs)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Set out a large mixing bowl. Add in the ground beef, crushed crackers, egg, Worcestershire sauce, milk, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Mix by hand until the meat mixture is smooth, but stop once the mixture looks even. (Overmixing can create a dense heavy texture.)
  • Press the meat down in the bowl, into an even disk. Use a knife to cut and divide the hamburger patty mixture into 6 - 1/3 pound grill or skillet patties, or 12 thin griddle patties.
  • Set out a baking sheet, lined with wax paper or foil, to hold the patties. One at a time, gather the patty mix and press firmly into patties. Shape them just slightly larger than the buns you plan to use, to account for shrinkage during cooking. Set the patties on the baking sheet. Use a spoon to press a dent in the center of each patty so they don't puff up as they cook. If you need to stack the patties separate them with a sheet of wax paper.
  • Preheat the grill or a skillet to medium heat. (Approximately 350-400 degrees F.)
  • For thick patties: Grill or fry the patties for 3-4 minutes per side.
  • For thin patties: Cook on the griddle for 2 minutes per side.
  • Stack the hot patties on hamburgers buns, and top with your favorite hamburgers toppings. Serve warm.

ZESTY SIR - LIME BURGERS



Zesty Sir - Lime Burgers image

Make and share this Zesty Sir - Lime Burgers recipe from Food.com.

Provided by AmandaInOz

Categories     Meat

Time 20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs ground sirloin
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 egg

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
  • Form into 6-8 patties.
  • Grill on a hot BBQ grill or on the stove top to your liking.
  • Serve with your choice of bread and toppings.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: Use a combination of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef for the best flavor and texture.
  • Season the beef patties generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for a classic flavor profile.
  • Don't overwork the beef: Overworking the beef will make the patties tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Form the beef patties into uniform shapes: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a hot grill or pan: This will help to sear the outside of the patties and keep them juicy on the inside.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill or pan: Leave some space between the patties so that they can cook evenly.
  • Flip the patties only once: Flipping the patties too often will make them dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness: The internal temperature of the patties should reach 160°F for medium-rare, 165°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
  • Let the patties rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the patties, making them more flavorful.

Conclusion:

Zesty hamburger patties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you're serving them on a bun with your favorite toppings, or using them in a burger bowl or salad, these patties are sure to be a hit.
