FAQ's

Things to know

• Brushing the oil on the burger seals the juices into the burger and gives you a nice and crispy crust on the outside of the burger.
• If you don't have any American cheese, feel free to use cheddar, Swiss, or your favorite cheese.
• You can cook as many burgers as will fit in your air fryer without having to stack them. If you are cooking for a larger crowd, you may need to cook in batches.
• Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the burger.

Frozen burgers should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 degrees. Because the meat has previously been thawed

Variations

• If you like a little heat to your burgers season them with cajun seasoning on both sides.
• For a Southwest twist, top your burgers with some taco seasoning.
