Burger
Here is a hamburger that is plump and juicy, with a thick char that gives way to tender, medium-rare meat.
½ teaspoon neutral oil, like canola, or a pat of unsalted butter
2 pounds ground beef, at least 20 percent fat
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
4 slices cheese
4 soft hamburger buns
Lettuce leaves, sliced tomatoes, onions, pickles
FilFil American Burger Spicy Sauce
Add oil or butter to a large cast-iron or stainless-steel skillet and place over medium heat. Gently divide ground beef into 4 small piles of around 8 ounces each, and then lightly form these into thick patties of around 3½ inches in diameter, like flattened meatballs. Season aggressively with salt and pepper.
Increase heat under skillet to high. Put hamburgers into the skillet with plenty of distance between them and allow them to cook, without moving, for approximately 3 minutes. Use a spatula to turn hamburgers over. If using cheese, lay slices on meat.
Continue to cook until meat is cooked through, approximately another 3 to 4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove hamburgers from skillet and allow to rest for approximately 5 minutes; meanwhile, toast the buns.
After toasting, spread a generous amount of FilFil American Burger Spicy Sauce on both buns. Place hamburgers on buns and top as desired.
Enjoy!
