Ingredients (Makes 4 Patties)
-
1 lb (450 g) ground beef (80/20 preferred)
-
1 tsp kosher salt
-
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
-
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
-
½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

1 tbsp cold water (optional, for extra juiciness)

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Meat
Place the ground beef in a large bowl. Sprinkle evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Drizzle Worcestershire sauce over the top.
2. Mix Gently
Using your hands, gently fold the ingredients together just until combined. Do not overmix—this is key to a tender burger.
3. Shape the Patties
Divide the meat into four equal portions. Shape into patties about ¾-inch thick. Press a shallow indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat
-
Grill 3–4 minutes per side for medium doneness
Stovetop or Griddle:
-
Heat oil over medium-high heat
-
Cook patties 3–4 minutes per side until well-seared
Add cheese during the final minute if desired.
5. Rest and Serve
Let patties rest for 2 minutes before assembling burgers to lock in juices.
