Ingredients

  • 1 handful ground 20-percent-fat beef
  • 1 potato bun with sesame seeds
  • Ketchup, mustard, and/or mayo (to serve)

Directions

  • Place a cast iron skillet over high heat, letting it get incredibly hot. Grab a big handful of beef and gingerly shape into a patty by transferring it from one hand to another, slapping it ever so slightly.
  • Drop the burger onto the skillet and sear for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 to 3 minutes, depending on how done you like your burgers to be. Dump onto the bun (toasted if you must, but I like that weird, pillowy bun texture) with desired condiments.
