Fire Up the Grill With Great Burgers
(NewsUSA) – Nothing signifies the start of grilling season like a big, juicy burger hot off the fire. America’s love affair with the great taste of hamburgers has been going strong for more than 100 years.
While some ‘burger purists’ would argue that the only condiments a burger requires are ketchup, mustard and a few pickles, other more adventurous ‘burger aficionados’ enjoy spicing things up. Omaha Steaks

Notes
Whatever type of burger you choose, keep these tips in mind:
- Cook burgers to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit -- the center may still be slightly pink, but the juices will run clear.
- Avoid patting down burgers with a spatula because this will push out the juices and cause flame-ups.
- If serving with cheese, melt on burgers for 1 to 2 minutes before removing from the grill.
- To toast hamburger buns, either place face-down on the grill or face up in the broiler or toaster oven for approximately one minute.
- Try other hamburger 'bun' options including lettuce leaves, sliced French bread, tortillas or pita bread.
