Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup minced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 burger buns
- Your favorite burger toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, etc.)
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, minced onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
- Using your hands, gently mix the ingredients until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it can result in tough burgers.
- Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Make sure the patties are slightly larger than the size of your burger buns, as they will shrink a bit during cooking.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a stovetop, preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Grill the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. If using a skillet, cook for the same amount of time on each side.
- During the last minute of cooking, place the burger buns on the grill or skillet to toast them lightly.
- Remove the cooked burgers and buns from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Assemble your burgers by placing a patty on each toasted bun. Add your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.
- Serve the best burgers ever with a side of fries or a salad, and enjoy!
