Mouth Watering Healthy Hamburgers


Quite a healthy hamburger recipe, consisting of your choice of fresh lean ground beef or ground sirloin. I'm not very fond of pink slime, so I go for the ground beef that allows me to see the meat that I'm getting. This homemade burger recipe does not compromise to be a healthy burger by using ground turkey. Though it would still taste great even turned into turkey burgers made with fresh ground turkey.

Perfect at any time of year so you don't have to wait for grilling season to grill this burger recipe on the backyard BBQ for it to taste great. The flavors in this hamburger recipe allow for it to be one of the most versatile hamburger recipes, making it great for multiple meal ideas, and will fit in great with all your other super bowl recipes.  

Fast Food Burger Joints Don't Want You To See This Burger Recipe


Since this burger recipe goes great with french fries you can put those fast food hamburger joints on the back burner. Which may be a good idea since fast food hamburgers are dry, tasteless, and especially since many fast food restaurants have been rumored to use pink slime in their meat. 

If you are accustomed to dry burgers from fast food like what McDonald's serves, I suggest you try this juicy homemade hamburger recipe at your own risk! As once you've had a burger this juicy you'll never want to eat another dry fast food burger again.

Hamburger Tips to Make the Best Burgers


These 4 tips to make hamburgers will ensure your burgers will fill the buns and be mouthwatering juicy every time you use this burger recipe, and may even make a dry hamburger recipe a bit more juicier, so be sure to keep these tips in mind whenever you try out new hamburger recipes.

  • To keep your family or friends from asking the dreaded question "where's the beef?" because your hamburger patties shrank into a meat ball while they are cooking; as you are forming the raw ground beef into hamburger patties flatten the patty from the center of the hamburger patty to the outer edges in a circular motion to disperse the meat evenly throughout the hamburger patty until the whole hamburger patty is about 1/4 inch thick. This will give you a nice thick juicy patty that will not become a meat ball when you cook it. If you happen to have a hamburger patty press which makes the patty making process a breeze, you can just put the meat in and press it flat.

  • If you are only able to cook one or two hamburgers at a time keep the rest of your meat in the refrigerator to keep it chilled and your ground beef or ground sirloin will keep the form of the hamburger patty much better, which will prevent you from having to dry out your hamburgers with flour or bread crumbs, and is a much safer food handling practice.

  • To keep your burger as juicy as possible do not use the spatula to press down on the burgers as they are cooking.

  • One last tip to make the best juicy burgers is to only flip your patties once while they are on the BBQ grill or in the pan. So wait until you see that your 1/4 inch thick quarter pound hamburger patty is cooked half way through then give it a flip and while the other half of the hamburger is cooking, maybe add some cheese,mushrooms, or green chili to top it off.

The Juiciest Hamburger Recipe

Cook Time for this Juicy Burger Recipe

Prep time:  15 minutes
Cook time:  8-10 minutes per hamburger
Ready in: 1 hour 55 minutes
Yields: 8 quarter pound juicy hamburgers

Ingredients
  • 2 lbs Ground Beef or Sirloin
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Johnny's Seasoning Salt
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder or 1/2 c freshly chopped onion
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder or 2 cloves of fresh minced garlic or sliced thin
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
    No need for bread crumbs or flour in this juicy hamburger recipe, all they do is dry the hamburger out, and you get enough dry burgers at Burger King, Sonic, and McDonald's.

Instructions on How to Make the Best Juciest Burgers 


  • If you are grilling with a gas or electric grill, heat your grill to high heat of about 360ºF so that when you place your hamburger patty on the grill, it will sear the meat quickly and be less likely to stick to the grill. If you are using a frying pan to help prevent sticking put a little extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) to thinly coat the bottom of the frying pan and then heat up the pan to a medium high heat of about 350ºF.  When you are grilling these juicy hamburgers with charcoal set your coals up so you have a medium high heat area on the grill (where you can hover your hand a couple inches above the grill and within a few seconds it should be too hot to handle) and a medium heat area (where you can hover your hand a couple inches above the grill for at least a minute without it being too hot to handle).

  • In a large bowl mix the eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Johnny's Seasoning Salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper together thoroughly.
    Add the 2 lbs ground beef or ground sirloin in with the Worcestershire sauce and seasoning mixture then mix until eggs are completely mixed into the ground beef or ground sirloin.

  • Section the seasoned ground beef or sirloin into 8 and form into 8 hamburger patties For mini juicy burgers - just section the ground beef or ground sirloin into 16 smaller sections then form into 16 hamburger patties.

  • Place the hamburger patties on the grill or frying pan and sear the meat on medium high heat for about 4 minutes on each side (the burgers should look browned about half way through like the picture on the right before you flip the patties). After you have flipped the patties and let the burgers sear for a few minutes lower the temperature to a medium heat of about 250ºF, add cheese, green chili, or other heat friendly toppings of your choice, and cook the hamburgers for an additional 2 minutes.
