What You’ll Love About Burger Patties

Serve them to friends and family, both gluten free and not, because everyone enjoys biting into the crispy outside while letting the juicy hamburger patty flavors inside flood across their taste buds. It’s an eye roll back, mouth smiling moment.
Tips for Making the Best Burger Patties
Use hamburger that is 80/20 for the juiciest results, the extra fat will bind the burger together too
Use a large spoon (not cereal spoon size) to press indents into the center of each patty to prevent the center from puffing up
Use a skillet that can handle high heat, like the Perfect Pan to achieve a crispy sear on the outside
Let the hamburger patties rest off the heat for 5 mins so their juices re-absorb for the ultimate flavor experience
Use a hamburger patty press so each patty cooks at the same rate
What to Serve with a Burger Patties
Special sauces, cheeses, veggies, fried eggs, the whole nine yards! Plus, grab toasted buttery buns or fresh, crispy, lettuce leaves to lovingly embrace your juicy, tantalizing, creations.
Create a partnership on the plates between the burger patties and french fries, pasta salads, or fresh fruit for the best flavor fusions.

Description
Juicy, lightly crispy, burger patties, smothered with your fav toppings, then piled on a delicious bun or wrapped in crispy, refreshing lettuce leaves. These burger patties are going to be a shining star on your recipe-go-round.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef, 80/20 blend
- Seasonings of your choice
- Butter, or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Preheat a pan, like the Perfect Pan, to Medium High
- Add butter or oil to pan
- Gently break up ground beef into 4 equal sections
- Form each section into equal balls
- Flatten each ball out into patties, use a beef patty maker to create equally sized patties
- Using a tablespoon silverware spoon, add an indent to the center of each burger patty to create a 2 inch indent
- Season the tops of each patty, you do not need to mix seasoning into the ground beef
- Add the patties to the frying pan once the pan is sufficiently hot, it should sizzle if you shake a drop of water onto its surface
- Cook the patties for 4 mins on each side to achieve medium, you may have to adjust for your stovetop and personal taste
- Remove the patties to a dish or cutting board to rest for 4-5 mins to attain even more juiciness
Notes
It’s important that the pan be heated up well before before you add the beef patties to gain that slightly crispy outside. Also, making them all similarly sized will ensure that they finish cooking at the same time.
Try not to flip the burgers over more than 1-2 times. I flip it once, time it for 4 mins, then flip it back one last time to add cheese slices if anybody wants them. Then I just wait 20-30 seconds and remove them to a resting plate.
