The Best Grilled Burger {And Secret Sauce Recipe}

Two BBQ’s in a weekend. Did I mention we love to BBQ? And also I think there is a rule somewhere that you have to have a BBQ on Memorial Day. The hubs said he wanted to grill some burgers, so I wanted to put this one to the test. I know that it is harder for a burger to stay in tact on the grill, so I put down aluminum foil sprayed with some cooking spray to grill the burgers on. Then once they started to get cooked, remove the aluminum foil so that the burgers could get that charbroiled taste. Well the burgers still ended up in pieces. Grrrrr. Once we got the pieces onto the bun, the flavor of the burger was delicious. And the secret sauce is sooooo good.

What is the secret sauce

This sauce is something that everyone needs in their life. It is just that good. And the best thing about it is it’s extremely simple. This mixture consists of some of your normal go to dips and combines them together to make a unique flavor that you just won’t be able to get enough of.

What do you need to make the best burger patty

There are few things in this world that can top a perfectly good burger patty. And this is one of those recipes that is at the top of the list. Perfect for your bbqs, weeknight dinners, or even lunch, these burgers are quick to make and filled with flavor.

The savory taste of a juicy burger is made with these ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef- I used 85/15- you want a fattier meat to make a juicier burger!
• Monterey jack cheese- I prefer to use this, if you have something else on hand or like, this is a simple substitution
• BBQ sauce- Helps create that savory flavor
• Salt- Just to taste
• Cracked black pepper- Also just to taste
• Onion powder- Helps give a bit of a smoky flavor

How to Make the Best Burger Patty

This is definitely a great go-to recipe when you are in charge of hosting the next family bbq. Easy to throw together especially if needing to make plenty to feed everyone!

1. Combine the ground beef, grated cheese, bbq sauce, and seasonings.
2. Shape patties that are about 1 inch thick. With the 1 pound of ground beef I made 5 large patties.
3. Turn the grill up to high and let it get hot.
4. Reduce heat to medium-high and place the burgers on the grill. Allow this side of the patty to cook for about 4-6 minutes, but make sure it doesn’t burn. Then flip the burger over and cook until done.
