You flip those patties too often
Cooking your burgers while flipping them just once is more than enough to ensure they’re cooked evenly. Many people flip patties as if there was no tomorrow, so don’t be that guy. Flip once and let the grill leave an impression on the meat.
You’re not greasing your grill
If the patties stick to the grill, it’s game over. This means you have to prep your grill before the big night. For starters, scrape all those burnt bits and then grease your grill with cooking oil to make sure the patties cook evenly without sticking.
You can never have enough cheese!
With so many types of cheese out there, why settle only for the yellow stuff? Visit your local cheesemonger and get some real cheese. Cheese alone can take a so-so burger to contemplative levels. An aged cheddar, some blue cheese, a proper provolone, each cheese has a unique personality.
