Adam Cooks: The Perfect Basic Burger

From Allrecipes.com



Ingredients:
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
buns/toppings of your choice

Directions:
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.

In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, salt and pepper. Place ground beef and bread crumbs into the mixture. With hands or a fork, mix until well blended. Form into 4 patties approximately 3/4 inch thick.

Place patties on the prepared grill. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes per side, or to desired doneness.

Comments:
I used lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup. Adam used cheese, onion, barbecue sauce. Yeah, we're totally different. But it works. Aside from the fact that I ended up with the top half of the burger in my lap, these were good. Then again, that could just be my clutzy side's fault. Grr.
