The 3 ingredient burger: 80/20 ground beef (chuck), Salt, American cheese

I have a hard time believing that "overworking" the beef will have any noticeable impact on the outcome.

Unfortunately, this is science. Mixing activates the proteins, and the beef gets more sticky the more you mix it.

Makes it more like meatloaf than ground beef. It's a good tip.

Except American cheese is disgusting. Use cheddar, and chopped bacon on top.

Cheddar

American cheese is fine on a burger. It simply melts better than cheddar

American cheese for an American burger. Also, cast iron is better, but flat top is better than a grill.

Supercoug

7/1/19 12:22pm

We talking like cast iron on top of a stove or something else?

7/1/19 12:24pm

I have a cast iron pan that has a lid with it. Cook on a stove top.

Supercoug

7/1/19 12:25pm

I fully disagree. A grill is greater then a flat top

Why?

If using a gas grill it may not be

You must be Canadian or French. An American Burger demands American Cheese!

I've come around to the thin patty. If you need more meat you just double up.

A burger cooked over flame is fine... Its just not great.
