Reverse Seared Burgers

You may have heard about reverse-searing a steak. It’s the process of cooking the center slowly and gently in a low oven and then searing it in a hot skillet afterward. Well, it turns out this technique works wonders on burgers as well. By slowly raising the interior temperature of the patty, you’ll be able to have much more control over doneness. And, as an added bonus, the oven dries out the burger’s surface allowing you to sear on a thick, brown crust before the center has time to overcook. Here’s how to do it for a couple patties, but this technique works super-well when cooking for large groups as well. Just toss an entire sheet of burgers in the oven ahead of time and then sear in batches when folks get hungry.
