Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • Optional toppings: cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Mix the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it can toughen the burgers.
  3. Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, making them slightly larger than the buns, as they will shrink during cooking.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a stovetop, preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Grill the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. If using a stovetop, cook for the same amount of time in the skillet or grill pan.
  6. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheese, if desired, and allow it to melt.
  7. Remove the burgers from the grill or skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.
  8. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill for a minute or two, until lightly toasted.
  9. Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun. Add your preferred toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise.
  10. Serve the not-your-average hamburgers immediately and enjoy!

Interesting Facts

  • Adding breadcrumbs and milk to the ground beef mixture helps keep the burgers moist and tender.
  • Worcestershire sauce adds a savory and umami flavor to the burgers.
  • To prevent the burgers from puffing up in the center while cooking, make a slight indentation in the middle of each patty.
  • Grilling the burgers enhances their smoky flavor, but you can also cook them on a stovetop if needed.
  • Experiment with different types of cheese and toppings to personalize your not-your-average hamburgers.
