Recipe by Dawn Perry Adding onion delivers moisture; forming thicker patties prevents them from cooking too fast and drying out. Both steps are key when working with grass-fed ground beef.

Instructions

  1. Using your hands, gently mix onion, beef, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Gently shape into four 1 1/2"-thick patties (loosely formed patties will be more succulent).

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat. Season patties with salt and pepper, place in skillet, and immediately reduce heat to medium. Cook 4 –6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve on buns with desired toppings.

  3. DO AHEAD: Patties can be formed 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

A meal like this Perfect Grass-Fed Beef Burgers that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
