Everything about the beef burger starts with the beefy patties, and it happens that, at times,
this aspect is overlooked when one is making burgers at home. One may grab the best in, make the special sauce and even buy extra juicy beef but fail to shape and cook the patties.

Step 1: Start With the Right Beef

The perfect beef burger starts with the identification of the excellent beef. The best burger is
made from freshly ground and high-grade beef chuck in an 80/20 mix of meat and fat. This is the secret to making the best beef burgers, as poor quality meat would produce unpalatable beef burgers.

Step 2: Mixing the Ingredients

After gathering the ingredients, these ingredients should be mixed in various proportions to
ensure that the end product is well prepared.

While mixing, ensure that the mixture ratios are correct as per the instructions on ingredients and descriptions to ensure that the proper burger patties can be made.
Mix the ground beef, onion, egg, breadcrumbs, ¼-teaspoon pepper, Worcestershire, and garlic in a bowl. This should be done until when the mixture is well blended.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions once the mixture has blended well and effectively, and then shape each portion into a patty of about four inches wide

Step 3: Flattening the Patties

Once the mixture is well mixed and perfectly blended, it is time to flatten the patty balls.

Flatten the balls into ¾-inch thick patties in an effective way. The cake should be at least as wide as the bun and about ¾ to one inch thick.
While flattening, remember to flatten the top and sides of each patty to ensure that the thickness is the same throughout.
For a thin ball, the patties could be modeled after those in popular burgers restaurants, or the balls should be made less than ¾ inches.
Line the flattened balls with an inverted baking sheet and with parchment paper

Step 4: Get Cooking

Preheat the pan to medium or medium-high temperature over direct heat. Ensure that the grate is
oiled with olive oil or neutral-flavored oil like canola and vegetable.

Continue heating until the oil has begun to smoke, as this means it is hot enough to proceed with the other instructions.
Add the burgers into the smoking oil, which by this time is enough while ensuring that burgers are at room temperature while seasoning them with pepper and salt.
Put the burgers on the pan and then wait for them to be while remembering that the less touching, the better the burger would be.
For a juicy burger, remember not to press down. During this time, it is possible to cover the pan for better outcome and even cooking.

Step 5: Cooking Burger

Once the burgers have been laid on an oiled pan over a high/medium gas heat, the lid may be
closed, as mentioned above in step 5.

After that, cook the burgers until they are browned on both sides while ensuring that none is pink inside. To know whether it is pink inside cut to test. After 7 to 8 minutes, remove the burgers from the pan.
Remember that if you want to ensure that the burger is bacteria-free, you need to cook the burgers to completion.
A perfect burger secret is making a divot of the burger with your thumb to help its shape while cooking. These patties may be made ahead and then chilled in the fridge.

Step 6: Checking the Doneness

Check the doneness by making a small incision on one of the burgers. Moreover, the burgers should have a brown and crunchy feeling on both sides after cooking for 10 minutes on each side.

Step 7: Topping

If one wants to add cheese, move the burgers to the oven and grill it for three to four minutes at a temperature of 160C. The cheese should melt gently over the patty with a golden look.
After that, place the patties on the burns, add other toppings, such as tomatoes, lettuces, spices and then serve
