Making good hamburger patties may seem like a straightforward process, but
more goes into cooking impressive burgers than just slapping a disk of grilled
meat between a bun. While you can vary the type of meat and seasonings, or even
make stuffed hamburger patties, following these simple steps leads you to juicy,
great-tasting burgers every time.
Start by setting out a clean sheet pan, optionally lined with a piece of
waxed paper or parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Portion the patties to fit the size of the intended burger bun. The higher
the fat content of the meat, the more hamburgers shrink as they cook. If you use
85/15 lean/fat or higher, make the patties slightly larger than the buns. Keep
patties made with leaner meat to the actual size of the buns.
Additionally, keep all the patties consistently sized so they cook at the
same rate. Otherwise, you might end up with some overcooked and some undercooked
burgers. Use a kitchen scale if you have one, or form a ball of the ground meat
in your hand and hold it to get a feel for the size; repeat to make all the
burgers the same. Either way, it's common to get four patties out of a pound of
beef.
When you shape the patties, press down in the center while you simultaneously
pat the sides, turning the burger in your hand to keep it even. This prevents
the patty from cracking around the edges. You should end up with a solid,
compacted disk of meat.
