Ingredients:

1 1/3 lb. ground chuck or ground lean beef,
2 Tbs. finely chopped yellow onion,
1 tsp. minced garlic,
1 tsp. salt,
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper,
1 or 2 dashes of Worcestershire sauce,
4 slices cheddar or Swiss cheese (optional),
4 hamburger buns, split.
Sliced tomato for serving,
Sliced sweet white onion, such as Maui, Vidalia or Walla Walla, for serving.
Torn lettuce for serving,
Sliced dill pickle for serving,
Ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard or other condiments of your choice for serving.

Directions:

Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat.

In a large bowl, mix together the beef, yellow onion, garlic, salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Form the mixture into 4 patties using BurgerMate.

Grill the hamburgers directly over medium-high heat, turning once, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Check for doneness by cutting into a hamburger near the center or testing with an instant-read thermometer. No pink should show on the inside, and the internal temperature should register at least 160°F on an instant-read thermometer. If making cheeseburgers, place a slice of cheese on top of each hamburger during the last 3 minutes of cooking.

During the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking, toast the hamburger buns, cut side down, on the grill. Serve the hamburgers on the buns with tomato, white onion, lettuce, dill pickle and condiments. Serves 4.
