Servings

4 burgers 1 x

Ingredients

1 – 1 1/4 pounds ground beef
3 tablespoons steak sauce (such as A1)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano (or 3/4 teaspoon dried)
1 – 2 tablespoons finely minced onion

Instructions

Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl , mixing thoroughly with your hands or a wooden spoon.
Shape into 4 patties by hand, making the center of each just a little thinner than the edges. Refrigerate until ready to grill.
Start grill, and when it’s good and hot, grill the burgers to the desired doneness, flipping once. They’ll take about 4 minutes on each side, more or less, depending on how you like them cooked.
To make cheeseburgers, top with slices of American cheese or sharp Cheddar cheese after you flip them. Top with additional favorites such as lettuce, tomato, onion, cucumber, green pepper – whatever your heart desires!
