If you have the perfect way to cook a burger you're not alone. There is no secret that your 'Secret Recipe' stands above your neighbor's or best friend's.

Three questions for each - How do you cook your burgers? Do you season the meat? Do you grind your own or do you use prepared ground beef?

Seasoned. Nothing fancy. Salt and pepper go a long way.
Prepared ground beef. Too much inconsistency in fat/meat ratio when grinding yourself.
