How LONG do you cook a hamburger on outdoor electric grill?
I can't give you a specific cooking time for your hamburger. Here's why:
* Grill Type and Power: Outdoor electric grills vary in power and heating efficiency.
* Burger Thickness: A thin patty will cook faster than a thick one.
* Desired Doneness: Do you like your burger rare, medium, or well done?
* Grill Temperature: Are you using a high, medium, or low setting?
Here's a general guide and tips:
* Start with a medium heat setting.
* Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper doneness:
* Rare: 125-130°F (52-54°C)
* Medium-Rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)
* Medium: 140-145°F (60-63°C)
* Medium-Well: 150-155°F (65-68°C)
* Well Done: 160°F (71°C) or higher
Tips for Cooking:
* Pre-heat the grill for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
* Don't press down on the burger! This will squeeze out the juices.
* Flip the burger only once, when it's nicely browned on the bottom.
* Consider adding a lid to the grill for faster cooking.
* Rest the burger for a few minutes before slicing.
By starting with a medium heat and using a thermometer, you can adjust the cooking time to your preference and ensure the burger is cooked safely and to your liking.
