How to Make Bar Burgers
- Heat a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. (About 3-4 minutes)
- Gently form the ground beef into 6 equal patties (about ¼ lb each). Do not press down; maintain the visible grind marks.
- Carefully place patties on the hot griddle.
- Using a heavy spatula, firmly press down on each patty for 15-20 seconds to create a good sear and prevent shrinkage.
- Sprinkle the tops of the patties generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the edges are browned and the juices begin to rise to the surface. Do not press down while flipping.
- Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the burgers from the griddle and loosely tent with foil to keep them warm.
- While the burgers are cooking, spread the cut sides of the buns lightly with softened butter.
- Place the buttered buns, cut-side down, on the griddle for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
- Place the cooked burgers on the toasted buns and top with your favorite toppings.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious bar burgers!
