Tips, Tricks, and Hints

Want to make burgers at home tonight but don't have a working grill like me. (I tried to grill out when it was 5 below and this is what I get) The way to make a perfect burger without cooking it on a grill is to use the oven method. I use half pound burgers so they are about an inch thick, you will need to adjust if not cooking such large carnivorous portions. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Pull out your favorite cast iron skillet and put it on a burner on High heat. Season your meat thoroughly on both sides with salt and pepper. Add your patties to the scorching hot pan. Cook for two minutes on both sides until you have reached a nice sear. Turn off the burner and put the pan directly into the oven. Let the burgers cook on both sides for 10 min. After cooking remove the burgers from the oven (BE CAREFUL THIS PAN IS HOT!) Move the patties to a plate and let rest for 10 min. This is how to achieve a perfect medium on your burger. Adjust your timing if you like your burgers any other way. (And according to my dad then just forget that you put them in the oven for a few hours and they will be cooked to perfection. He likes a charred burger.) You can find a picture of this burger on the side panel ----> that way. Enjoy!
