Burger Patties

Buns

Method

Preparing the Patties

1

Mixing the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the patties tender.

2

Forming the Patties

Divide the mixture into two equal portions (approximately 1/3 pound each) and shape them into thick patties. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.

Grilling the Patties

3

Preheating the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

4

Cooking the Patties

Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, or until a nice sear forms. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium doneness.

Preparing the Toppings

5

Slicing the Peppers

While the patties are grilling, slice the red and green bell peppers into thin strips.

Assembling the Burger

6

Toasting the Buns

If desired, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

7

Layering the Ingredients

On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer the shredded lettuce, followed by the grilled burger patty, sliced bell peppers, green chiles, and top with BBQ corn salsa. Place the top half of the bun over the salsa.
