Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Form ground beef (preferably chuck) into 6-ounce patties and make an indentation in each. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness. For cheeseburgers, top with 2 slices cheese during the last minute of cooking; cover the grill to melt.

I made burgers similar to these in my college training, and tweaked them a little to satisfy picky eaters at home! Moist and juicy burgers guaranteed every time. Garnish the burger with a slice of pancetta, ancient grainy mustard, red onion slices, iceberg lettuce, and Swiss or blue cheese.

Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ⅓ pounds ground beef
½ cup bread crumbs
1 shallot, minced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 egg
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pinch kosher salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
6 slices pancetta
6 hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, shallot, Dijon mustard, egg, garlic, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Refrigerate mixture to incorporate flavors, 20 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Form ground beef mixture into 6 patties.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat; lay pancetta slices in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook until pancetta begins to sweat, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pancetta from skillet and keep warm.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Cook patties on the preheated grill until burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-well burgers. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • Place 1 burger into each of the buns; top burger with a pancetta slice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beef: Use a blend of ground chuck and ground sirloin for a juicy and flavorful burger. For a leaner burger, use ground turkey or chicken.
  • Season the beef well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt and pepper, as well as your favorite herbs and spices. Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder are also great additions.
  • Form the patties gently: Don't overwork the beef, or the burgers will be tough. Just mix the ingredients together until they are evenly combined, then form them into patties that are about 3/4 inch thick.
  • Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the burgers while keeping the inside juicy. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them even more flavorful.

Conclusion:

Grilling burgers is a great way to enjoy a delicious and satisfying meal. By following these tips, you can make sure that your burgers are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So fire up the grill and get started!
