The BEST Classic Burger Recipe!

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 hamburger buns
Vegetable oil (for grilling)
Hamburger toppings (optional): lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, cheese
Instructions:
Prep the patties: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Avoid overworking the meat, which can make the burgers tough.
Form the patties: Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty that's slightly wider than your hamburger bun (they will shrink a bit while cooking). Make a shallow indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to help prevent them from bulging in the middle while cooking.
Heat the grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F). Lightly brush the grates with oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the burgers: Place the patties on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare burgers, or longer for desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 160°F for medium-rare.
Toast the buns (optional): While the burgers are cooking, you can toast the hamburger buns for a bit of extra flavor. Slice the buns in half and place them cut-side down on the grill for a minute or two, until lightly toasted.
Assemble the burgers: Once the burgers are cooked to your liking, place them on the bottom buns. Add your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and cheese. Top with the bun halves and enjoy!
