Recipes for the Grill or Broiler- the BEST BBQ Recipes:
After forming the patties, make a slight depression in the center of each one. The result will be hamburgers off the grill that are evenly thick, evenly cooked, and no chewy edges.
Invest in good meat. For the juiciest hamburgers the meat should have a fat content of at least 18%. Leaner meats provide for tough, dry burgers.
Mix your seasonings in very gently. The more you handle the meat, the tougher your end burger will be. In a large bowl, spread the meat lightly with your fingertips and gently mix in the seasonings just until loosely mixed.
And, lastly:Resist the urge to press down the patties when you are grilling. This juice that forms is your key to added flavor and moisture.
Don't forget to keep a spray bottle of water and a container of salt near your grill for flare-ups!
