• Worcestershire sauce – Even a small amount gives your burger a deep beefy and smoky flavor.
• Dijon mustard – Adds a little tangy and loads of flavor to your burgers with just one tablespoon.

How to make Easy Homemade Hamburgers

Enjoy the flavor of fresh hamburgers any time of the year. You can cook these on a pan or the BBQ, to enjoy quick and easy burgers any time of the year. And it’s ready in only four simple steps. How great is that!

Step 1: Combine Patty Mixture

It all starts with making the patty mixture. And with only a handful of ingredients, this burger comes together really easily. So, let’s begin.

In a large bowl, add ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Gently and evenly mix to make the patty mixture. You want to be careful not to over mix the patties. You only want to mix it until everything is well combined.

Step 2: Shape Patties

Easy Homemade Hamburgers makes four juicy burgers. So, you’ll want to divide the patty mixture into four equal portions and form each one into a patty shape. Try to make the patties as equal as possible. This helps all of the burgers cook more evenly when it is time to cook.

Gently press your thumb in the middle of the patty to make a small dimple. This will help the burger cook more evenly.

Step 3: Cool in the Fridge

Before cooking your burger, store burgers in the fridge. Even a few minutes in the fridge with help it hold together better while cooking. This is why you don’t need any egg to bind them. Simply let the patties cool in the fridge and your burgers will be full of flavor while keeping their uniform burger shape.

Step 4: Cook

In a large pan over medium heat, add non-stick cooking spray and cook burgers for 3 to 5 minutes per side. Cook until an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

While they are cooking, avoid pressing down on the patties. It doesn’t help them cook faster. Instead, pressing on the burger causes the patty to loose its natural moisture and you want to keep those juices in. So when it’s done, you have juicy and tasty burgers.

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN THE BEEF IS READY?

When your Easy Homemade Hamburgers are finished cooking, you’ll want to make sure that it is fully cooked and safe to eat. The best way to do this is by using a meat thermometer. The recommended internal temperature of ground beef is 160°F (71°C).

WHAT TO SERVE WITH EASY Homemade Hamburgers?

Sure, burgers are satisfying all on their own. Top them with tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, and a bun, and you have a tasty meal. But, if you want to add a salad, you may also enjoy Avocado Mediterranean Salad, Avocado Caesar Salad, or Creamy Dill Cobb Salad. And if you enjoy a fruity dessert salad, Blueberry Cantaloupe Salad is so refreshing
