Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 6 pieces Hamburger buns
- 6 pieces Cheese slices (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Cooking oil (for greasing the grill)
- as needed Toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, condiments)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375–400°F (190–200°C). Clean and lightly grease the grates with cooking oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to avoid dense patties.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.
Once the grill is ready, carefully place the patties on the grill. Cook for 4–5 minutes on one side without moving them to create a nice sear.
Flip the patties and cook for another 4–5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for medium-well. If adding cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last 1–2 minutes of cooking to let it melt.
While the patties cook, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill for 1–2 minutes until golden and slightly crispy.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun and layering with your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and condiments of your choice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade grilled hamburgers!
