Provided by Lauren Allen

Categories Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds ground chuck (80/20)*
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
6 buns (, toasted, if desired)
6 slices cheddar cheese (, or your favorite cheese)
6 Lettuce leaves
1 Beefsteak tomato (, sliced)
1/2 of a Red or white onion (, thinly sliced)
6 Pickle slices

Steps:

Make burger seasoning by combining all spices in a bowl. Set aside.
Divide ground chuck into 6 equal portions and gently from into 1/2 inch thick patties that are wider than the burger buns (as they will shrink). Use your thumb to press an indentation into the center of each patty. Cover and set aside.
Preheat grill to medium high heat. Just before cooking, sprinkle seasoning over the patties, then place on hot grill, indent-side up. Close grill lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the bottom of the burger is seared and juices are accumulating on top of the burger. Flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes or until the beef reaches 160 degrees F.
Place cheese on burgers during the last minute of cooking. Remove to a plate and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving in a bun, with toppings.

Juiciest Hamburgers Ever image

No more dry, lackluster burgers. These are juicy, and spices can be easily added or changed to suit anyone's taste. Baste frequently with your favorite barbeque sauce. If you find the meat mixture too mushy, just add more bread crumbs until it forms patties that hold their shape.

Tips for Making the Best Juicy Texas Burgers:

Use high-quality beef: Opt for ground chuck or a blend of chuck and sirloin for a juicy and flavorful burger.
Season the beef well: Generously season the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika before forming the patties.
Form the patties gently: Handle the ground beef gently when forming the patties to avoid compacting them, which can lead to dry burgers.
Make a thumbprint in the center of each patty: This will help prevent the burgers from puffing up in the middle while cooking.
Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will allow the burgers to cook evenly without burning the outside.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure doneness: Cook the burgers to an internal temperature of 160°F for medium-rare or 165°F for medium.
Let the burgers rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, resulting in a more flavorful and juicy burger.
