Frequently asked questions (FAQ's)
I prefer to use ground chuck when I am making burgers. I've found that it sticks together well and turns out nice and juicy every time.
Yes! You can mix and shape the burger patties up to 24 hours in advance. Place them on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet, cover tightly, and refrigerate until you're ready to cook.
You can also freeze the uncooked patties for up to 3 months. Just thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before baking, grilling, or cooking on the stovetop.
Absolutely, this burger is terrific using ground turkey or ground chicken as a base.
No. The mayonnaise and breadcrumbs help bind the patties while keeping them tender and juicy, so there's no need to add an egg to this recipe.
Deb's tips for the best burger
Do not over-mix the meat when adding the seasonings. Mix until combined so you don't end up with tough burgers.

I have to say I've never even thought of putting mayonnaise IN the burger instead of on the bun. Has to help keep them from being dry. My husband only eats mayo if he doesn't know it. Definitely going to try this recipe.
