Answer 2

I am not convinced that barbecuing is best although I want to believe that. Just frying seems to do a good job in a medium hot pan. But when I do barbecue one of the things I have learned to do is NOT compress the home made (there is no other kind!) patties. A lot of people squeeze and shape and press down like they were Schwarzenegger - this closes up the spaces in the meat that would otherwise be permeated with heat and smoke. In fact, I sometimes pinch and fork the uncooked burger until it has a loose texture (or grind it myself and very gently form loose patties).

I add three ingredients (never bread crumbs or egg unless I want miniature meatloaves!): garlic salt (or freshly squeezed garlic and some sea salt), a bit of cayenne and - here is the weird one - a bit of freshly grated nutmeg. Not so much of the latter that anyone can really say "ah, nutmeg" .- perhaps 1/4 teaspoon in total in a pound of beef.

Just two other tips

1. Don't use meat that is really really lean. You need some fat to give flavor. One trick I tried once was grinding my own burgers using pretty lean chuck roast and adding some good quality, relatively lean smoked bacon to the grinder so that you could see the "marbling".

2. Have the barbecue night and hot for searing when you put the patties on.

Bon appetit!

Must be grilled first, add spices and mustard mixture on both sides while cooking.
