Burger Dos and Burger Don'ts

Many think making a burger is simple science, there is actually a method to it!

Burger Dos:
• Grind your own meat if you can. If not, have your butcher grind beef that is   
   20/80 ratio.
• Preheat your skillet on high.
• Toast your bun with butter.
Burger Don'ts:
• Overwork patties by compressing the meat. Instead, use a food scoop or ice 
   cream scoop to make a 4-ounce ball.
• Overseason meat. You're not making a meatloaf.
• Never press on the patty while it's cooking; you'll push out the juices.
