  • Season the pork well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other desired spices.
  • Use a binder: Add an egg or bread crumbs to help hold the burgers together.
  • Form the burgers gently: Overworking the meat will make the burgers tough.
  • Make a well in the center of each burger: This will help prevent the burgers from shrinking and bulging in the middle.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help prevent the burgers from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the burgers are cooked through: The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers.
