Hamburgers, Tender and Moist. image

Although many folks use this method of cooking burgers, I have found that most do not...I enjoy a good home-made burger but all too often they end up being dry and hard and not very tasty...The solution simply, is water (or any liguid you would like to flavor the burger with)...

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb hamburger, ground beef, etc
1/4 cup water
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Put hamburger and water into a mixing bowl, along with any seasonings you like --
  • Mix together (I use my hands) --
  • Divide into fourths, thirds, or halves, depending on how large of a burger you want --
  • Flatten to shape the burgers (I stick 'em between two sheets of wax paper and press with my hand) --
  • Cook the burgers just like you would normally --
  • They will be very soft and hard to handle, so be careful placing them into the pan, or grill --
  • GENTLY flip the burgers when you think they are about half done. They will be firmed up good by the time they are done cooking.
  • Cook til juices run clear (for well done) but do NOT press on the burger while cooking --
  • Works great whether cooking on a grill or the stovetop.
  • Put the cooked burger into your favorite bun with your favorite condiments and,.

HAMBURGERS

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 hamburgers

Number Of Ingredients 16

24 ounces ground chuck
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Spice Mix, optional, recipe follows
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 slices cheese, such as Cheddar, American, Saga blue cheese, and Swiss, optional
4 soft hamburger-style buns, split
4 slices beefsteak tomatoes, optional
Assorted lettuces and greens, such as iceberg, romaine, or watercress
Assorted mustards, such as whole-grained, Dijon, or French's, optional
Mayonnaise, optional
Ketchup, optional
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
Hot Sauce, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place a roasting rack on a foil-lined baking sheet in the oven.
  • Using your hands, break the meat into small pieces and combine evenly but loosely on a parchment or waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Spread the meat out and season it generously with salt and pepper. If desired, add the spice mix at this time.
  • Divide the meat into 4 portions (about 6 ounces each). Using your hands, form each portion into a ball-shape by gently tossing it from 1 hand to the other. (Don't over work or press too firmly on the meat.) Gently form each portion into a patty about 3 1/2 inches wide and 1-inch-thick.
  • Preheat a large cast iron skillet over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Raise the heat to high and add the oil. Add the patties and cook, turning once, until well-browned, about 2 minutes each side.
  • Using a spatula, transfer the hamburgers to the roasting rack in the oven and continue cooking to desired doneness, 8 to 9 minutes for medium-rare, 10 to 11 minutes for medium, and 13 to 15 minutes for well-done. If you are using the cheese, top the hamburgers during their last couple of minutes of cooking to melt.
  • Transfer the hamburgers to a plate, let rest for a couple minutes before serving. Meanwhile, toast the hamburger buns. Assemble the hamburgers with the condiments and toppings of your choice. Serve.
  • When cooking on a countertop grill, turn on grill, then place burgers on the heated grill.
  • Timing for a countertop grill:
  • For Medium-Rare: Cook for 3 minutes covered and then unplug the machine and continue to cook covered for 2 to 3 more minutes.
  • For Medium: Cook for 4 minutes covered and then unplug the machine and continue to cook covered for 4 more minutes.
  • For Well: Cook for 5 minutes covered and then unplug the machine and continue to cook covered for 5 more minutes.
  • Combine all ingredients.

JUICIEST HAMBURGERS EVER



Juiciest Hamburgers Ever image

No more dry, lackluster burgers. These are juicy, and spices can be easily added or changed to suit anyone's taste. Baste frequently with your favorite barbeque sauce. If you find the meat mixture too mushy, just add more bread crumbs until it forms patties that hold their shape.
