These were so good and easy. I used ground round, sea salt and black pepper. I had a little rack from the dollar store so I bent it to fit my frying pan. Topped with sliced, white onion and American cheese. I love the fact this recipe does not leave you with a greasy mess to clean up. Thanks for posting and this is now my "go to" burger recipe! Happy Independence Day!

These were really good and so easy to make. I did have to cook mine a bit longer to get them done. I cooked mine for ten minutes but they were so juicy. I didn't measure the seasoning salt or pepper, I just sprinkled it on. I also used burgers I had made when we bought our side of beef. I will make them like this more often.
