Homemade Hamburger Patties

Homemade hamburger patties are easy to prepare and incredibly delicious. Without a word of a lie, this recipe produces one of the most delicious patties I have ever tasted. The most essential ingredients are the hamburger, breadcrumbs, egg, and milk, as these are what allows you to form Patty and hold it together. The remaining ingredients simply add the flavor. We have added Tabasco sauce for some additional zip. This, of course, is totally optional. It is best when cooking these burgers to flip them only once. Cook them for about three minutes on one side, and flip them to the other side and continue to cook for the same time. If you want your burger a little on the rare side, reduce the cooking time by a little bit. Alternatively, if you want them well done, increase the cooking time to about 4 minutes. The cooking time will change a little according to the size and thickness of the burger. You can grill for a little longer using an outdoor grill. These burgers are also great done in the oven, as well.

These burgers also freeze nicely for future use. If you want to do this, simply place a piece of wax paper in between each burger, wrap them well in Saran Wrap, and place them in the freezer. This recipe will give you 4 large burgers or 5 or 6 smaller burgers. If I’m going to freeze them, I usually make up a double batch. In other words, I’ll use about 3 pounds of ground beef. I also like to use a fairly decent quality, lean ground beef.

Use these homemade burger patties to cook your homemade hamburgers. You can also serve them as a hot hamburger or solo with a side dish of fries or mashed potatoes.
