About beef burger patties
If you're looking to make a great hamburger at home, you may want to consider starting with beef burger patties. These are pre-formed burgers you can purchase from your local grocery store, or better yet, have an Instacart shopper pick them up for you. Instacart saves you time and energy by doing your grocery shopping for you and even deliver it to your doorstep! So, now you've made shopping easier, and beef burger patties are about to make creating the perfect burger at home easier for you too.
You can find beef burger patties fresh in the meat section at the grocery store as well as in the freezer section. While freshly pattied burgers are great on the grill, the convenience of frozen beef burger patties can also be appealing. You can keep a bag of frozen beef burger patties on hand for those nights when your child surprises you by inviting a friend over or for those last-minute meals thanks to a late game or practice. Simply take out the number you need and fry them up directly from the freezer. Everyone's bellies will be happy.
Beef burger patty cooking tips
If you're making fresh ground beef burger patties from the butcher counter at your local grocery store, you should purchase them within a day or two of planning to make them. Keeping the time short in your refrigerator before cooking helps keep the beef burger patties fresh, offering better flavor. Fresh burger patties can be placed directly on a pre-heated grill or in a frying pan, whichever method you prefer. Let the burger cook until the bottom side is golden brown and then flip it over to finish it off. This usually takes about four minutes.
When cooking burgers, a meat thermometer will come in handy so that you can tell when they're done without having to chop one in half to test the pinkness level. For medium-rare burgers, it should reach an internal temperature of 130-135 degrees. If you prefer a medium burger, be sure to get the internal temperature up to 140-145 degrees. A medium-well burger will need to reach 150-155, while a well-done burger should be 160-165 degrees. Let your burger rest for about five minutes before serving.
Frozen beef burger patties cook slightly differently than fresh ones so that you avoid overcooking and ending up with a dry patty. For frozen beef burger patties, you should start with a frozen patty. Never thaw the patties prior to cooking. Remove any paper separators that may have been added to keep patties from sticking to each other and then place them right on the hot grill or in the frying pan to cook. You will need to flip frozen patties constantly, every three to five minutes, and the entire cooking process should take around 20 minutes.
Both types of beef burger patties can be seasoned before placing them on the hot grill or frying pan. Most people choose to season burgers simply with salt and pepper, but there are other options. You can add just about anything you're willing to taste, but popular options include onion powder, garlic salt or powder, Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce, A-1 or similar steak sauce, soy sauce, and citrus juice. Be sure to add your seasonings to your Instacart order, so you're all set to cook when your order arrives on your doorstep!

FAQs about beef burger patties
The main difference between a patty and a hamburger is that a patty refers to the flattened raw ground beef, while a hamburger is a sandwich that is created by placing the cooked patty into a bun and sometimes adding condiments and vegetables on top.
Everyone loves sinking their teeth into a big, juicy burger because they're more flavorful. To get a juicy burger, you need to help restore some of the lost moisture that happens during cooking. You can do this by adding a little bit of water to your ground beef if you make the patties yourself, or you can also add a little water to pre-formed patties by spritzing them with water. Another way to add water to pre-formed patties is to cook them with an ice cube on top. Gently press the cube onto the burger and let it melt, restoring the juices with water as it cooks.
Yes. Baked burgers are an excellent, hands-off way to cook burgers. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, season your burgers and place them on a lightly greased baking sheet. When the oven reaches 350, place the burgers inside. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and then bake another 5-10 minutes or until they reach the correct temperature.
