Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, leaves removed and chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 4 units hamburger buns
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 4 slices sliced tomato
- 4 slices cheddar or Swiss cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, parsley, rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients gently with your hands or a wooden spoon until just combined. Over-mixing can result in dense burgers.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about ¾ inch thick. Use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing up during cooking.
Cover the patties with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Heat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan to prevent sticking.
Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (130–135°F for medium-rare, 140–145°F for medium, 150–155°F for medium-well). Add cheese slices during the last minute of cooking if desired.
Remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for 3–5 minutes to lock in the juices.
Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster for extra flavor and texture.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a patty, a slice of tomato, and the top bun. Feel free to add extra toppings, such as onions, pickles, or condiments of your choice.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries, salad, or grilled vegetables.
