This easy cookout dish is perfect for a busy weeknight meal or a more casual weekend cookout. Try to keep the thickness of your patties to an even consistency to avoid uneven cooking. Using a flattop griddle or grill pan will help keep your burgers at their juiciest. If you opt for a charcoal grill, make sure to spread the coals evenly and keep the grill closed during the cooking process to avoid flare ups. In addition to traditional toppings like lettuce and tomato, you can also add a slice of avocado or a spoonful of caramelized onions. If you like, toast the hamburger buns right alongside the burgers.

Uncooked 93% lean ground beef
