Burger Preparation

Prepare the Patties
In a large bowl, gently mix the ground Angus beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.

Assemble the Burgers
