Get ground beef or ground chuck with 20% fat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Use high heat and cook fast. If you leave burgers on the grill too long, they dry out.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t pack the patty too tight, and don&#8217;t smash the juice out of the burger with your spatula. Juicy is best!<\/li>\n<li>Flip the burger once. \u00a0When you see the juices form on top, the inside meat is getting cooked.<\/li>\n<li>A typical burger takes about 10 minutes to cook: \u00a05-6 minutes on one side, then another 3-4 minutes after flipping.<\/li>\n<li>Personal favorite &#8211; add sea salt instead of regular salt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you prepare for the rites of summer by getting out your BBQ grill to cook hamburgers, Santa Maria tri-tip or hot dogs for Memorial Weekend, we&#8217;d like you to take a moment to remember and recognize two summers ago in 2011.
