THE BEST GRILLED BURGERS
When summer nights call for a grilled burger, this one is our go-to. We season only the outside of each patty right before grilling to help a build a nice crust. Our trick for forming the patties is a real time saver, especially if you are cooking for a crowd. You can also form them the day before; place in an airtight container with parchment paper in between to help with party-day prep.

Steps:
- Form the ground beef into four 8-ounce patties. A quick and easy way to do this is to divide the meat into 4 piles. Place a pile on the top of a deli container lid. Take a second deli container lid and place the top of it against the meat. Press down evenly and firmly and watch as a perfect patty forms. Repeat with the remaining meat. Make an indentation in the middle of each patty with your thumb to keep the burger from shrinking as it cooks.
- Sprinkle each patty on both sides with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with oil. Grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 4 more minutes for medium-rare. For cheeseburgers, top with 1 slice cheese during the last minute of cooking if desired; cover the grill to melt. Remove to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
- While the burgers cook, place the onion slices on the grill (try to keep them together in a disk). Cook until they are golden on one side, about 4 minutes, then flip with a metal spatula and sprinkle generously with salt. Cook on the other side until the onions are lightly charred and softened through, about 4 minutes, and transfer to a plate.
- Right before serving, toast the buns cut-side down on the grill. Top the bottom bun with a burger patty and layer with grilled onion, lettuce and a slice of tomato. Spread the inside of the top of each bun with some mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup. Arrange the pickle chips on top. Flip over to top the burgers and secure with a toothpick if desired.

Steps:
- 1. If you have a big mixer, such as a KitchenAid, toss in the ground beef, onion, and other ingredients. (Be sure to set on a low setting to start due to the liquid ingredients. If you don't have a mixer, prepare to get your hands dirty.)
- 2. Mix all the ingredients until blended. Stir midway through with a spoon/fork to ensure that it has reached the bottom completely.
- 3. Take about 1/4lb of mixture to make patty and roll in the palm of your hand pressing gently to form the patty. The thicker the patty, the longer cooking time. (I usually press it to right around the size of my hand.) Don't forget, the patties will shrink up as they are cooked, so don't make them too small. Place each on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Place the cookie sheet of patties in your freezer just until they are firmed up. (You don't want them frozen, only firm enough to through on the grill without them falling apart.)
- 4. Place on medium heat grill and cook until your desired doneness. Medium well is usually about 8-10 min depending on the thickness of burgers.
- 5. Remove from grill. Fix up your buns with preferred garnishes. Remember, you have lots of flavoring in the burger already, so you may not need as many condiments as you normally would. Enjoy!
GRILLED BURGERS
Sour cream makes these burgers delightfully moist, and thyme and black pepper give them zip. These sandwiches are a terrific taste of summer served with tall glasses of lemonade or iced tea. -Jesse & Anne Foust, Bluefield, West Virginia

GRILLED HAMBURGERS
We cook a lot of burgers indoors on a fat-slicked iron skillet, and you can do that on a grill as well. (Here's our burger guide for more information and inspiration.) But sometimes you want a smoky grilled burger. For that, a charcoal grill is best, but a gas grill can do the trick, too. Resist the temptation to press down on the burgers with a spatula, which only spews juice and fat on the fire, causing the flames to flare up and the burger to lose flavor. If you feel your burger is cooking too quickly, use the cooler sides of the grill to rest them. And remember: lowering the top on the grill helps cheese melt.

Steps:
- Start a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill. (Check out our grilling guide for how.) Form the patties into 3/4-inch burgers, being careful not to make them too loose or too large, then make a deep depression in the center of each burger with your thumb. Season both sides of the each burger aggressively with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Place burgers on a hot grill and cook, without moving, for about 3 minutes. Use a spatula to turn the hamburger over. If using cheese, lay slices on the meat. Continue to cook until the burgers are cooked through, about another 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the burgers from the grill and allow to rest for a few minutes while you toast the buns. Top the burgers as you desire.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground beef: Look for ground chuck or sirloin with a fat content of 80% to 85% for a juicy and flavorful burger.
- Season the beef simply: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all you need to create a delicious burger. Don't overdo it with the seasonings, as you want the beef to be the star of the show.
- Form the burgers gently: Handle the ground beef as little as possible to prevent it from becoming tough. Use your hands to gently form the burgers into patties that are about 3/4-inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.
- Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: This will create a nice crust on the outside of the burgers while keeping them juicy on the inside. Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, 4-5 minutes per side for medium, or 5-6 minutes per side for well-done.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them even more flavorful. Let the burgers rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Top the burgers with your favorite toppings: Cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles are all classic burger toppings, but you can get creative and add your own favorites.

The perfect grilled burger is a thing of beauty. It's juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. With a little practice, you can learn to make grilled burgers that will impress your friends and family. Just follow these tips and you'll be on your way to grilling up the best burgers ever.
