Before we dive into the cooking process, let’s take a look at the ingredients you’ll need:


Steakhouse BBQ Grill Hamburgers

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs ground chuck (80/20 beef)
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4-6 hamburger buns
  • Optional toppings: cheese slices, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, condiments

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Now, let’s get into the step-by-step instructions to create these mouthwatering burgers:

  1. Prepare the meat:
    In a large bowl, gently mix the ground chuck with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Be careful not to overwork the meat, as this can lead to tough burgers.
  2. Form the patties:
    Divide the meat into 4-6 equal portions, depending on your preferred burger size. Shape each portion into a patty about 1-inch thick, making a slight depression in the center with your thumb. This helps the burgers maintain their shape during cooking.
  3. Chill the patties:
    Place the formed patties on a plate or tray lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps the burgers hold together better on the grill.
  4. Preheat the grill:
    Heat your grill to high, aiming for a temperature of about 450-500°F (232-260°C). Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  5. Grill the burgers:
    Place the chilled patties on the hot grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your desired doneness. Avoid pressing down on the burgers with a spatula, as this squeezes out the juices.
  6. Add cheese (optional):
    If you’re making cheeseburgers, add a slice of cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking. Close the grill lid to help the cheese melt.
  7. Toast the buns:
    While the burgers are cooking, lightly butter the inside of your hamburger buns and toast them on the grill for about 30 seconds, or until they’re golden brown.
  8. Rest and serve:
    Once cooked, remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  9. Assemble and enjoy:
    Place each burger on a toasted bun and add your favorite toppings and condiments. Serve immediately and savor your homemade steakhouse-quality burger!

There you have it – a foolproof method for creating steakhouse-worthy BBQ grill hamburgers at home. The key is to use high-quality meat, season it well, and cook it at the right temperature. With these tips and techniques, you’ll be grilling up burger perfection in no time. Happy grilling!
