  3. Heat grill to medium-high.
  4. Divide hamburger mix into 4 equal balls.
  5. Form patties by slapping the burgers back and forth from one palm to the other until they are about an inch thick.
  6. Grill burgers to desired doneness, turning every few minutes and adding cheese after the last flipping of the burgers
  7. Serve on the buns, with the onion/mushroom mixture, a dollop of sour cream, and a thin slice of cream cheese.

Notes, tips, and variations edit

  • The suggestion to flip the meat a number of times comes from a book concerning the science of cooking. The theory is that the juices in meat rise to the surface of the meat and are then lost during grilling. By turning the meat regularly, you reduce the capacity of the juices to rise out of, and run off, the meat.
  • The egg and oats combine to bind the hamburgers and help prevent them from falling apart on the grill.
