These grilled burgers are tender and juicy with a smoky flavor. Serve on buns with your favorite toppings.
To ensure tender burgers, avoid overmixing the ground beef mixture, as excessive handling can lead to a tough, dense texture. For best results, form patties just before grilling and make a small indentation in the center of each to prevent them from bulging in the middle during cooking. Ensure your grill is properly preheated to high heat and the grates are well-oiled to achieve a good sear and prevent sticking. For enhanced flavor, consider incorporating finely minced onion or fresh herbs like parsley into the beef mixture. Always use an instant-read thermometer to confirm the internal temperature, ensuring food safety and optimal doneness. Toasting your buns on the grill before serving adds another layer of texture and flavor.
