Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

Burgers

  • 1 lb Ground Beef 93/7
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tbsp BBQ Sauce
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Burger Fixings

  • 4 Sliced Cheese
  • 1 Beefsteak Tomato Sliced
  • 1/2 White Onion Sliced
  • 1 Lettuce Head
  • 4 Hamburger Buns
  • Pickles
  • Mayo
  • Mustard
  • Ketchup

Instructions

Preparing Patties

  • Combine all spices and sauces with egg and ground beef, mix until combined.
  • Form into 4 equal patties (1/4 lb patties), use parchment paper to separate and freeze for 30 minutes. (This isn't necessary but I find it helps the burgers set better, especially if using 93/7 lean beef).

Making Burgers

  • Preheat air fryer at 370° for 2 minutes.
  • Place patties in the air fryer and using your finger, indent the center to help the patties from puffing up in the middle.
  • Cook for 5 minutes at 370°, flip the patties and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Top with your favorite fixings!
