Ingredients

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix ground beef with buttermilk, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for 24-48 hours to allow the beef to ferment and develop flavor.
  3. After fermentation, form the mixture into 4 equal patties.
  4. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness.
  5. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill.
  6. Assemble the burger with a patty and tomato on each bun.
  7. Check that the ground meat reaches 71°C (160°F) throughout before serving.
