  • Yield

    Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

3 pounds ground beef chuck (20% fat), or vegetarian alternative such as Lightlife® Plant-Based Burgers
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
8 slices American cheese (optional)
8 potato rolls, split and grilled
Burger toppings

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Form beef (if not using pre-formed vegetarian patties) into eight 4"-diameter, 3/4"-thick patties (don't pack too tightly). Using your thumb, make a small indentation in centers to help keep patties flat as they cook.

    Step 2

    Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Season patties with salt and pepper and grill until lightly charred on bottom, about 4 minutes. (Resist the temptation to press down on patties.) Flip and top with cheese, if using. Grill patties to desired doneness, about 4 minutes longer for medium. Serve patties on rolls with desired toppings.
