Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 pound ground beef 80/20 blend for juiciness
  • 1 teaspoon salt to enhance flavor
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper for a bit of kick
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder adds depth of flavor
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce for umami richness
  • 4 hamburger buns for serving
  • Your favorite toppings lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc.

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Grill or stovetop skillet
  • Spatula
  • Meat thermometer (optional)
  • Serving plates

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce.
  2. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side.
  5. If using a meat thermometer, check for an internal temperature of 160°F for medium.
  6. During the last minute of cooking, place the buns on the grill to toast lightly.
  7. Once cooked, place the patties on the toasted buns and add your favorite toppings.
  8. Serve the burgers with sides like fries or a salad.

Notes

Let the patties rest for a couple of minutes before serving to retain their juices.
