Steps:
- Using your hands, break the meat into small pieces and combine evenly but loosely on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread the meat out and season it generously with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Place a roasting rack on a foil-lined baking sheet in the oven.
- Divide the meat into 4 portions (about 5 ounces each). Using your hands, form each portion into a ball-shape by gently tossing it from one hand to the other. (Don't over work or press too firmly on the meat.) Gently form each portion into a patty about 3 inches wide and 1-inch-thick.
- Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Raise the heat to high and add the oil. Add the patties and cook, turning once, until well-browned, about 2 minutes the first side, and 1 minute the second side.
- Using a spatula, transfer the hamburgers to the roasting rack in the oven and continue cooking to desired doneness, 5 minutes for very rare (blue), 6 to 7 minutes for rare, 8 to 9 minutes for medium-rare, 10 to 11 minutes for medium, and 13 to 15 minutes for well-done. If you are using the cheese, top the hamburgers during their last couple of minutes of cooking to melt.
- Transfer the hamburgers to a plate let rest for a couple minutes before serving. Meanwhile, toast the hamburger buns. Assemble the hamburgers with the condiments and toppings of your choice. Serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your hamburgers.
- Grind your own beef. This will give you more control over the quality of the meat and the fat content.
- Season the beef liberally. Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt, pepper, and other seasonings.
- Form the patties loosely. Don't pack them too tightly, or they will be tough.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.
- Flip the burgers only once. Flipping them too often will make them tough.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the burgers. They are done when they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help them retain their juices.
Conclusion:
Logan County Hamburgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your burgers are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So fire up the grill and give Logan County Hamburgers a try!
