Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Yellow onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 Cheese slices (optional, cheddar or your choice)
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 Tomato slices
- 4 slices Pickles (optional)
- 0 to taste Ketchup
- 0 to taste Mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated, but do not overwork the meat to avoid tough burgers.
Step 2
Divide the mixture into 4 even portions and gently shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4-inch thick. Use your thumb to create a slight indentation in the center of each patty; this helps the patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, place the burger patties into the pan, indentation side up.
Step 4
Cook the patties for about 4–5 minutes on the first side, then flip them. Cook for an additional 3–4 minutes for medium doneness, or longer if you prefer your burgers well done. If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.
Step 5
While the burgers cook, lightly toast the burger buns in a separate pan or on the grill for about 1–2 minutes until golden.
Step 6
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked burger patty. Top each patty with a tomato slice, pickles (if using), and your choice of condiments like ketchup and mayonnaise. Finish with the top bun.
Step 7
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes and enjoy Tanya's Fabulous Burgers!
