Kitchen tip: Why medium ground beef? The extra fat in the medium ground beef will drip off while grilling, but keep your burgers from getting dry while they cook.

The name says it all! We stand behind the great taste and simplicity (it only takes 15 minutes to prepare) of our triple-tested best burger recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp regular or Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 500 g medium ground beef
Instructions
- Preheat barbecue to medium. In a large bowl, whisk egg with mustard, Worcestershire, salt and pepper. Crumble in beef and gently mix together. Shape into 4 burgers, each about 1 in. thick. Using your thumb, make a shallow depression in centre of each. This helps the patties keep their shape during cooking.
- Oil grill. Barbecue burgers, with lid closed, until cooked through, 6 to 8 min per side.
