Classic Burger Recipe
Summer is for grilling and you can use our classic burger recipe to feed a crowd. Enjoy this juicy and flavorful beef burger!
Serving5 Servings
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef, (I used 85/15 beef)
- 1 egg, beaten
- ¾ cup bread crumbs
- 3 Tablespoon evaporated milk
- 2 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- dash of cayenne pepper
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients. Mix together using your hands until ingredients are barely combined (be sure to not overmix because then the hamburgers will become dense).
- Form the mixture into 8 patties. Be sure to make them a little larger than the patties that you plan to use because ground beef shrinks when it cooks.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Lightly oil the grill grate and place patties on top of grill.
- Grill patties until no longer pink on the inside or until they reach desired doneness (I usually grill mine for about 5 minutes on each side).
- Place cooked burger on a hamburger bun and top with favorite toppings.
