Time to break out the grill or cast iron pan, and get your summer started. Spending time with the family with a backyard BBQ is the ultimate summer activity. In its simplest form, all you need for a burger is a meat patty and a bun. Purists insist that a burger should contain no fillers. No eggs or breadcrumbs. Just well-seasoned beef with the right amount of fat to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out. It’s not too hard to upgrade your bun with some lettuce, tomato, onion, garlic mayo, or even a fried egg. The messier, the better! Sometimes you just need to ditch the cutlery and fancy plates and just dig in and enjoy. Isn’t that what summer is all about? BURGER: • 2 lbs. ground beef • 2 tsp.
