Instructions 

  • Set ground beef on the counter for 20 minutes before you are ready to cook to allow it to warm up and come to room temperature. This helps with even cooking!
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, salt and black pepper.
  • Quarter the meat into 4 equal sections. Pat the meat into a ball, lay the meat on a flat surface, and use the palm of your hand to flatten the ball into a disk. To keep the hamburgers from puffing up, use a measuring spoon or your thumb to press an indent in the middle of each burger. Season all sides of the patties with the burger seasoning.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the grill to 400°F. Make sure your grates are clean. Rub the grates with oil (or use cooking spray) so meat does not stick. You want a high heat at first so you get a nice sear.
  • Place the patties on the grill, leaving room between them. Do not press down on the burgers - that can lead to dryness! Cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  • Then move the patties so they are not over a direct flame and cook them for about 2 minutes more, until desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to make sure to cook to 150°F, medium well done. (140°-145°F medium). To toast the buns, add them to the cooler side of the grill a couple of minutes before the burgers are ready.
  • If adding cheese: Once the burgers are done, turn off the heat and place cheese on top. Close the lid for 30 seconds to let the cheese melt. Remove patties immediately from the grill.
  • Carefully wrap burger patties in foil and let them rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Serve on a toasted bun with all of your favorite toppings!
