Step 1

Put the Lean Ground Beef (455 g) in a big mixing bowl.

Step 2

Carefully use your fingers to mix in Salt (to taste) , Freshly Ground Black Pepper (to taste) , and Onion Powder (to taste) . Don't knead, mangle, squeeze or squidge. Keep the meat fluffy and pebbly.

Step 3

Form beef into loosely packed patties. Gently pat each handful into a ball and make a dent in the middle of each burger patty.

Step 4

Add the Vegetable Oil (as needed) to the pan and grill. Don't press on your burgers or you'll lose the juiciness of the burger to the pan. Flip burger a couple of times to distribute said juiciness.

Step 5

Add cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, caramelized onions, whatever floats your boat and dig in.
