How to make cheap yummy burgers!

Is money running thin this week? Do you need a inexpensive, cheap way to feed your family for a night? Guaranteed they will LOVE this! I prefer to use oatmeal, but bread crumbs works just as well. So easy to make. I tend to burn water, but can make these with ease.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1/4 cup warm tap water
• 1/3 cup dry oatmeal or bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 or 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

1. * Place the raw hamburger in a bowl.
2. * Add the water, oatmeal, onion, garlic, salt and pepper.
3. * Use your hands to mix and mash the stuff all together until everything is blended evenly.
4. * Shape the mixture into patties with your hands.
5. * Make four large patties or 6 smaller ones.
6. * Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes.
7. * Place the patties onto the dry preheated skillet.
8. * Sear them on one side, cooking until they are a nice dark brown.
9. * Then flip them over with a pancake turner and turn down the heat to medium low.
10. * Cover the pan with a lid or a pizza pan.
11. * Allow the burgers to cook slowly for at least ten minutes.
12. * Turn them over again, recover and cook for five more minutes.
13. * They should be a lovely crusty brown on the outside, and gray colored inside, all the way through to the center.
14. * Drain the burgers on paper towels or brown paper bags for a moment or two before serving.

Tips & Warnings

• These can be served on buns with all the normal burger fixing. However, they are equally good plain, as individual meat loaves. Serves 4.
• Great with mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, etc.
