1 pound ground beef (80/20 for juiciness) For maximum juiciness.
to taste salt Use kosher or sea salt for best flavor.
to taste pepper Freshly cracked black pepper recommended.
4 burger buns Choose sturdy buns (brioche, potato roll, or sesame).
Toppings (lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickles, onions, etc.) Customize with your favorite toppings.

Preheat your grill to high heat, about 450–550°F.
In a bowl, gently mix ground beef with salt and pepper. Avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the beef into 3–4 patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty.
Chill formed patties briefly if they feel soft.

Grill the patties for 3–4 minutes on one side without pressing down.
Flip the patties, add cheese if desired, and cook for another 3–4 minutes until internal temperature reaches 160°F.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for 30–60 seconds.
Assemble your burgers with desired toppings and serve hot.

For variations, consider oven-roasting patties or using alternative proteins. Avoid overcrowding the grill for even cooking.
