Ingredients

  • 1 pound grass fed ground beef 90/10 is likely what you'll find
  • 1 Tablespoon Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts garlic salt and black pepper
  • 4 slices mild cheddar cheese
  • 4 hamburger buns toasted
  • assorted toppings as desired

Instructions

  • Preheat. Preheat your grill to medium heat (350 degrees F).
  • Make the patties. Divide the ground beef into equal 1/4 pound patties that extend about 1/2 inch wider than the size of the buns. The larger patties account for the slight shrinkage that occurs during the cooking process.
  • Season. Season the patties on all sides with Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts garlic salt and black pepper.
  • Grill. Place the patties on the grill grates and cook for 4-6 minutes per side (flipping only once) and cook to desired doneness. The FDA recommends cooking ground beef to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, but I prefer my burgers to medium and remove them at 135-140 degrees F. If you want cheese on your burgers, be sure to add it during the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Assemble. Remove your burger patties from the grill and assemble on your toasted buns with desired toppings.
