How to Grill Good Burgers on the Arteflame Grill

Master the art of grilling good burgers with our step-by-step guide tailored for the Arteflame grill. Perfectly combining traditional grilling with a touch of griddle-style searing, this method ensures your burgers are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.

Ingredients for Good Burgers:

• 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 mix for the best balance of flavor and juiciness)
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• Optional seasonings: garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce for an extra flavor kick
• Cheese slices (optional, select based on your preference)
• High-quality burger buns
• Fresh toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles
• Condiments: ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, etc.

Grilling Good Burgers: Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare the Burger Patties:

   • Combine the ground beef with salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings in a bowl. Mix gently to avoid compacting the meat, which is key to a juicy burger.
   • Shape into ¾-inch thick patties, pressing a thumbprint in the center to prevent puffing up during grilling.

2. Heat Up the Arteflame Grill:

   • Clean your grill to start with a fresh surface.
   • Light it up and wait for the coals / wood to reach a consistent temperature, setting up zones for both searing and indirect cooking.

3. Grill to Perfection:

   • Sear the patties on the grill’s grill grate for 1-2 minutes to develop a flavorful crust.
   • Move them to a cooler area on the flat top to finish cooking to your desired doneness, using a meat thermometer for precision.

4. Cheese Topping (Optional):

   • Add your favorite cheese slice to each burger a minute before it’s done to melt beautifully over the meat.

5. Toast the Buns:

   • Butter the buns and toast them lightly on the grill, keeping an eye to avoid burning, for that perfect crunch.

6. Assemble Your Good Burgers:

   • Build your burger with the patty, toppings, and condiments on a toasted bun, creating the ultimate good burger.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Present your good burgers hot off the Arteflame grill, accompanied by your favorite sides.

Tips for Grilling Good Burgers:

• Always aim for high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
• A meat thermometer is your best friend for ensuring perfectly cooked burgers.
• Resting your burgers after grilling locks in the juices, elevating the taste.
• Using the flat cooktop keeps your burgers from charring.
