Beefburgers with Sauces are a classic and customizable favorite. Whether you’re making them for a casual meal or a BBQ, having a variety of sauces and toppings can take your burgers to the next level. Here’s a basic recipe for making delicious beefburgers and some suggestions for tasty sauces to complement them.
Beefburger Recipe
Ingredients:
- 500 g (1 lb) ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat for juicy burgers)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
- 4 hamburger buns
- Lettuce leaves
- Tomato slices
- Onion slices
- Pickles
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Patties:
- In a bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt, pepper, and optional garlic and onion powders. Avoid overmixing to keep the burgers tender.
- Divide the beef into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1-inch thick. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the center of each patty; this helps the burgers cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up in the center.
-
Cook the Patties:
- Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness, or longer if you prefer them more well done. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature if needed (63°C or 145°F for medium).
- During the last minute of cooking, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in the skillet until golden brown.
-
Assemble the Burgers:
- Place each patty on the bottom half of a bun. Add your desired sauces and toppings, then top with the other half of the bun.
