I try as best as i can to steer away from ground meat of any kind, but a few times a year i have to have my addiction to burgers satisfied. I use 100% ground beef. Haven't gone crazy with experimenting. Tips are appreciated.

Coarse burger buns.
Light sour cream on bottom bun.
Ready made salad mix; Romano lettuce, grated carrot, red onion on the sour cream.
Ketchup + mustard on top bun.
Cheddar cheese - it being so rare i make burgers, i take the expense to buy cheddar. It lifts the burger up one level.

Many may disagree with this, but push the burger slightly down in the center so it is not too thick. This helps in the burger being too thick, it contracts when cooked, so having it a little bit thinned and expanded helps to 1) cook it faster, and 2) covering the entire burger bun. It will still be moist and juicy.

Salt+pepper the burger properly on both sides. Fry in non-stick pan in olive or canola oil + diary butter, medium heat. Flip until it has a nice roasting crust on both sides, turn heat down to low and let cook until done through. May take 10-15 minutes. Use spatula to open in center to check.

Place burger on bottom bun.

Lay 4 cheese slices in the pan with the oil+butter and move the pan in circles so the cheese melts in the fat. When melted, pour over the burger so it is coated with melted cheese and you get some of the fat down on the burger bun. Place top bun on burger. "Go ham" ^^

I have never made a burger in my whole life, like, ever, but I would use mayonnaise instead of sour cream.

Sour cream just doesn't sound right.

I'd probably turn down that burger given the treatment you've described

Probably wouldn't be bad... i just like the consistency and taste of the sour cream - it contrasts that of the oil+butter...

And btw ^^

Probably - That means there's a chance you'd taste it. That's good enough for me ^^

Definitely if i had the possibility. And though i strongly dislike Gordon Ramsay .. i can quote him; "Don't be scared to use a pan" ^^ From the episode Kitchen Nightmares UK - La Parra de burriana. I recommend that one ^^

Switch to brioche buns, toast the insides on whatever, and you should have yourself a perfect burger
