Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees F. If you don't have a preheat function you can let it run at that temp for ~5 minutes.
  • In a medium to large sized bowl combine all ingredients and mix well. I like to use my hands!
  • Divide mixture into 4 equal parts and form each part into a patty. I like to use a burger press for even patties.
  • OPTIONAL: place your patties in the fridge for ~20 minutes, or pop them in the freezer for about 5. This will help them stay together a bit more and especially help fattier meats (like 70/30 or 80/20) get nice and juicy, but if you have to skip this step no biggie!
  • Spray the basket for your air fryer and place patties inside, ideally not touching, but it's okay if they do just a bit.
  • Cook your burger patties for a total of 10 minutes, flipping your burgers once halfway through. If you like them crispier you can crank up the air fryer to 400 for 1-2 minutes.
  • NOTE: If adding cheese add for the last 1 minute.

Notes

You can really use any kind of ground meat you like. Ground chicken or turkey would work, too.
You can use any kind of fat percentage of meat. The more fat it has the more juicier your result will be. I typically like a percentage somewhere in the middle of ~10% fat. an 80/20 will give you the juiciest!
Feel free to dress up your burgers however you like! I like to have mine on a bun with some copcycat chick fil a sauce or on a big mac in a bowl hamburger salad!
