Discover the secret to making the juiciest and most flavorful burgers with this sous vide burger recipe. By cooking the burgers in a water bath at a precisely controlled temperature, you'll achieve a perfectly cooked patty with a heavenly texture. Serve it on a toasted bun with your favorite toppings for the ultimate burger experience.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 slices of cheese (optional)
• 4 hamburger buns
• Toppings of your choice (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, etc.)

Directions

1. Preheat the sous vide water bath to 135°F (57°C).
2. In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
3. Divide the ground beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 1 inch thick.
4. Place each patty in a vacuum-sealed bag or a ziplock bag, making sure to remove any excess air before sealing.
5. Once the water bath is heated, carefully lower the sealed bags into the water, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cook for 1 hour.
6. After the cooking time, remove the bags from the water bath and pat the burgers dry with a paper towel.
7. Heat a grill or a skillet over high heat. If using a skillet, add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
8. Sear the burgers for about 1 minute per side to develop a nice crust.
9. If desired, place a slice of cheese on top of each burger and let it melt.
10. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.
11. Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the bottom buns and adding your favorite toppings.
12. Serve the sous vide burgers immediately and enjoy!
