At 11:45 each day Dana shares a cooking or grilling tip from one of our listeners!  Jim had some great advise!

Bang-on Burgers: Hamburger is probably the most abused meat on the grill. If you press hamburgers with a spatula, stop right now! That spit and sizzle may sound exciting, but your burgers’ juiciness is going up in smoke.
Choose lean meat, make your patties ahead of time,  chill for at least 30 minutes to keep them from breaking apart while on your bbq.  Preheat the grill to medium, then sear one side. Never ever ever press them flat! A one-inch burger takes approx 6-7 minutes per side. Flip and, if you wish, add barbecue sauce a few minutes before they’re ready, or a slice of cheese in the last minute.
