 Categories: Beef, Breads
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      1 lb 80/20 ground chuck
      1 ts Oil
      1 ts Kosher salt; divided
      1 ts Coarse ground pepper;
           - divided
      4    Hamburger buns; split

MMMMM---------------------OPTIONAL TOPPINGS--------------------------
           Mayonnaise
           American cheese; sliced
           Tomato; sliced
           Dill pickle slices
           Lettuce
           Ketchup
           Yellow mustard
 
  Place a 9" cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, gently
  shape beef into 4 balls, shaping just enough to keep together (do not
  compact).
  
  Increase burner temperature to medium-high; add oil. Add 2 beef
  balls. With a heavy metal spatula, flatten each to 1/4- to 1/2"
  thickness; sprinkle each with 1/8 ts salt and 1/8 ts pepper. Cook
  until edges start to brown, about 1-1/2 minutes. Turn burgers and
  sprinkle each with additional 1/8 ts salt and 1/8 ts pepper. Cook
  until well browned and a thermometer reads at least 160°F, about
  1 minute. Repeat with remaining beef.
  
  Serve burgers on buns with toppings as desired.
