Ingredients
  

Burger Patties
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Assembly
  • 4 burger buns
  • Lettuce, tomato, cheese optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Spatula
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Plate

Method
 

  1. Combine ground beef with salt, pepper, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce gently to keep texture tender.
  2. Divide into portions and shape into patties without overworking the meat.
  3. Heat skillet over medium-high heat and cook patties until a crispy crust forms.
  4. Flip and cook to desired doneness while keeping the inside juicy.
  5. Rest briefly, then assemble burgers with buns and preferred toppings.

Notes

Avoid overmixing for tender patties. Cook longer for crispier edges or less for softer centers. Patties freeze well before cooking. Handle gently during shaping. Customize toppings and seasoning. Store leftovers in refrigerator up to three days and reheat carefully.
