Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, gently combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, beaten egg, bread crumbs, and bacon bits. Season generously with garlic salt. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Divide the mixture into four equal portions, and gently form into patties, ensuring they are uniform in thickness for even cooking. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. Place the patties onto the preheated grill. (1 minute)

05

Step

Cook for approximately 5 minutes per side, or until the patties are firm to the touch and no longer pink in the center. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). (10 minutes)

06

Step

Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving on toasted buns with your favorite hamburger toppings. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the ground beef mixture.
To prevent the patties from shrinking while grilling, gently press a small indentation into the center of each patty before cooking.
Experiment with different toppings such as caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, or a tangy aioli to customize your burgers.
