People who eat hamburgers or other sandwiches served on a bun typically prefer toasted bread. A toasted bun adds flavor to your burger and it only takes you a minute to get the bun perfectly brown. Read on to learn about several methods that you can use to toast hamburger buns.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Place them on the grill right before your burger is done cooking. This is the most popular way that people toast their buns. Simply put the buns face down on the top rack of your grill. Close the lid and less than a minute later, the buns will be toasted.

  2. Step 2

    Use the broiler to toast hamburger buns. If you are cooking indoors, put the buns under your oven's broiler. They should be face-up and when put on a broiler setting will only take a few seconds to toast.

  3. Step 3

    Toast hamburger buns in a toaster oven. If you only have one or two buns to toast, you can use your toaster oven.

  4. Step 4

    Consider putting the buns in your regular toaster, if the buns will fit in the slots.

  5. Step 5

    Purchase a conveyor toaster. Mini conveyor toasters are a great tool to use to toast hamburger buns. You simply place the buns face down and allow them to travel through the toaster. This is a good method if you have a large number of buns that need to be toasted.

Tips & Warnings
  • Hamburger buns can burn easily. Make sure you watch them carefully the entire time that you are toasting them.
  • Certain toasters come with a bun warmer attachment that can be used to toast hamburger buns.

on 4/17/2009 What about oven toasting when you don't use a broiler? Should you toast them with the centers facing up or down on a cookie sheet? What about if you butter them? Speaking of butter, does that decrease the toasting time?
