How To Cook The Very Best Burger

When you have the basics down, it isn’t hard to make The Very Best Burger. Just let your cooking surface and the beef make the magic happen! Follow these five steps carefully and you’ll get Burger perfection every time.

It all starts with getting the best beef. At Schweid & Sons we pride ourselves on our Burger blends. We suggest The Signature Blend or The Butcher’s Blend 5.3oz patties.

1. Keep Burger refrigerated until ready to cook.
2. Lightly season both sides of each Burger with kosher salt (optional).
3. Starting with a clean and oiled grill, cook Burgers over high heat for 8-10 minutes or until the desired temperature is reached.*
4. To keep them juicy, flip each Burger only once halfway through and do not press down on Burgers while cooking.
5. If cooking Burgers on the stovetop, we recommend using a cast-iron skillet and following the instructions above.

*The USDA recommends cooking Burgers to a minimum internal temperature of 160°F (71.1°C).
