Delicious Beef Burgers for Your Grill

These classic backyard beef burgers are made with ground beef mixed with seasonings and can be customized with various toppings. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields 4 burgers.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt adjusting to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 hamburger buns
American or cheddar cheese slices (optional)
Lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles for toppings
Ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise as desired

Instructions

Prepare the Patty Mixture: In a bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently without overworking the meat.
Shape the Patties: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center to help them cook evenly.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

Grill the Burgers: Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them and cook an additional 3-4 minutes until the patties reach your desired doneness, adding cheese on top in the last minute if desired.
Toast the Buns: If desired, toast the hamburger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
Assemble the Burgers: Place the cooked patties on the bottom halves of the toasted buns, add your favorite toppings, and cover with the top halves of the buns.
