This Hamburger Pattie Recipe-2 delivers bold beefy flavor, a tender interior, and a perfectly seared crust—ideal for backyard grilling, stovetop cooking, or smash-style burgers. Simple ingredients, chef-level technique, and consistently juicy results make this patty a go-to classic.


Why This Hamburger Pattie Recipe Works

  • Perfect fat ratio for juiciness without greasiness

  • Minimal handling keeps patties tender

  • Balanced seasoning enhances beef flavor instead of masking it

  • Versatile cooking methods: grill, skillet, or griddle

This recipe is ideal for cheeseburgers, gourmet builds, or classic diner-style burgers.


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)

  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (for pan or griddle cooking)


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.

4. Cook the Patties

Grill:

  • 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.

  • 80/20 beef is ideal—leaner meat dries out

  • Don’t press patties while cooking—it releases juices

  • Season just before cooking for maximum flavor

  • Use cold meat to improve texture and searing

  • Smoky BBQ: Add ½ tsp smoked paprika

  • Steakhouse Style: Mix in 1 tbsp melted butter

  • Spicy Kick: Add cayenne or crushed red pepper

GRILLED HAMBURGER PATTIES



GRILLED HAMBURGER PATTIES


A classic, smoky, tender hamburger patty recipe designed specifically for grilling. Includes seasoning tips, shaping techniques, cooking temperatures, and serving ideas.


Ingredients (Makes 6 large patties or 8 medium patties)

  • 2 pounds ground beef, 80/20 (80% lean, 20% fat recommended for juiciness)

  • 1 small onion, finely minced or grated (optional but adds moisture)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard (or Dijon for sharper flavor)

  • 1 tsp kosher salt, or to taste

  • 1 tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika (adds grilled smoky depth)

  • ½ tsp onion powder

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional for mild spice)

  • 2 tbsp cold water or beef broth (keeps patties tender)

  • Vegetable oil or melted butter, for brushing before grilling


Instructions


1. Prepare the Meat Mixture

  1. Place ground beef in a large cold mixing bowl.

  2. Add minced onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and seasonings.

  3. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons cold water or broth—this helps create a softer, juicier patty.

  4. Gently mix with your hands, lifting and folding rather than squeezing.

    • Overmixing creates compact patties that become tough on the grill.


2. Forming the Perfect Patties

  1. Divide mixture into 6–8 equal portions.

  2. Using lightly damp hands, shape each into a round patty about ¾–1 inch thick.

  3. Press a thumb-sized indentation in the center of each patty.

    • This prevents puffing up on the grill.

  4. Set patties on a tray, cover, and refrigerate 20–30 minutes to help them firm up before grilling.


3. Prepare the Grill

For a Charcoal Grill:

  1. Light charcoal and let it turn gray and ashy, about 20–25 minutes.

  2. Bank coals to one side to create direct and indirect heat zones.

  3. Oil the grates lightly with tongs and a paper towel dipped in oil.

For a Gas Grill:

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high (around 400°F / 205°C).

  2. Brush the grates clean and oil lightly.


4. Grill the Hamburger Patties

  1. Brush each patty lightly with oil or melted butter.

  2. Place patties on the hot side of the grill over direct heat.

  3. Grill for 4–5 minutes without pressing down (pressing squeezes out juices).

  4. Flip gently and cook an additional 4–5 minutes.

  5. If flare-ups occur, move patties temporarily to indirect heat.

  6. For cheeseburgers, add cheese during the last minute, cover grill to melt.


5. Internal Temperature Guide

Use a meat thermometer for accuracy:

  • Medium-rare: 130–135°F (54–57°C)

  • Medium: 140–145°F (60–63°C)

  • Medium-well: 150–155°F (65–68°C)

  • Well done: 160°F+ (71°C+)

Ground beef should be cooked to 160°F for food safety, though many grillers choose medium by preference.


6. Resting the Patties

  • Once cooked, allow patties to rest 5 minutes.

  • This redistributes juices and improves tenderness.


7. Serving Suggestions

Buns

  • Toasted brioche rolls

  • Sesame seed buns

  • Potato buns

  • Sourdough rounds

Cheeses

  • Cheddar

  • American

  • Swiss

  • Pepper jack

  • Provolone

Toppings

  • Crisp lettuce

  • Tomato slices

  • Sautéed mushrooms

  • BBQ sauce

  • Special sauce (mayo + ketchup + relish + mustard)

  • Garlic aioli

  • Chipotle mayo


8. Extra Flavor Variations

Smoky BBQ Patties:

Add 1–2 tablespoons BBQ sauce into the meat mix.

Spicy Grill Patties:

Add ½–1 teaspoon chili powder + extra cayenne.

Herb-Infused Patties:

Add 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, chives, or basil.

Butter-Boosted Juicy Patties:
