Bar Burgers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs hamburger
6 hamburger buns
2 tablespoons butter
kosher salt
pepper

Preparation

Heat griddle or cast iron pan on medium high heat.
Without disturbing grind marks, carefully divide hamburger into 6 sections.
Place hamburger sections on hot griddle.
Press hamburgers down onto griddle with a heavy spatula. Use pressure. this causes the hamburgers to stick to the griddle and prevents shrinkage.
Sprinkle tops with salt and pepper and any other spices you may want to use.
When the edges look cooked and juices rise to the top, turn over but dont press down again.
When bottoms are browned, and burger is to desired doneness, remove from griddle and set aside.
Cover with foil or wax paper.
Spread cut sides of buns lightly with butter.
Place butter side down on griddle until lightly browned.
Place burgers on buns and top with your favorite toppings.
