The All-American Burger
Independence Day
What's more comforting than a classic burger — thick, juicy,
done to a T and capped with melted cheese?
Each year on July 4th, Americans celebrate our freedom
and independence with barbecues, picnics, parades,
fireworks, and family gatherings.
These days anything goes when it comes to throwing it on the BBQ;
grilled veggies, shellfish, even fruit! Looking for something a little more
traditional and all-American for this special weekend? How about a juicy,
hearty, and satisfying hamburger!
On the average American
eats three hamburgers every
week. They also say that 72%
of all these more than a billion
burgers are prepared and eaten
somewhere other than home.
Now if you are like me, you
prefer homemade hamburgers.
F ollow th ese tips and
you 'll soon he on your way to
grilling the perfect burger:
•
Be sure your ground meat
is fresh. It should be bright
pink without any unpleasant odor or dark spots. .
• Avoid over-mixing ground meal because it becomes tough with
handling.
• Grill ground beefburgers over high heal to scar the outsides and seal
in their juices.
• Since it's the fat that gives burgers their natural juiciness and flavor,
when using extra-lean meats, add moist ingredients for juiciness, extra
I L
I
seasonings for flavor, and grill them more slowly over medium heat.
• I'se a spatula or tongs when turning burgers to help retain their shape.
• Avoid pressing down on the burgers while they're grilling; this
squeezes out the juices and makes them dry and tough.
• Never cook burgers to the point of dryness, but be certain they are fully
cooked. The meat should show no signs of pinkness inside, the juices
should run clear, and the temperature should register 160 F in the center.
