Juicy Basic Burger
Ingredients
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
Instructions
1
Preheat your outdoor grill to its highest temperature setting, ensuring it is scorching hot before proceeding.
2
Using a paper towel or a clean cloth, lightly brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
3
In a medium-sized bowl, combine an egg, salt, and pepper in a smooth, even mixture.
4
In a separate bowl or on a clean surface, combine ground beef and bread crumbs; use your hands or a fork to thoroughly blend the ingredients until they are well combined.
5
Using your hands, shape the mixture into four patties that are approximately 2.5 centimeters thick.
6
Carefully place the patties onto the preheated grill, ensuring they are centered and evenly spaced.
7
Cover the grill with a lid to trap heat and promote even cooking. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the burgers reach your desired level of doneness.
8
For optimal results, use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of the burgers; they should read at least 71 degrees Celsius (160 degrees Fahrenheit).
9
Serve the hot burgers immediately and indulge in your delicious creation!
