The are so delicious with the homemade buns. Give this one a try.

All-American Hamburger

Method: Grill (gas or charcoal)

TIME: Prep/Total Time: 20 min.
Ingredients:

2 tablespoons diced onion
2 tablespoons chili sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1 pound ground beef
4 slices American or cheddar cheese, halved diagonally
2 slices Swiss cheese, halved diagonally
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted (recipe below)
Lettuce leaves, sliced tomato and onion, cooked bacon, ketchup and mustard, optional

Directions:
In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into four patties.
Grill, covered, over medium heat for 6 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with two triangles of American cheese and one triangle of Swiss cheese. Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato, onion, bacon, ketchup and mustard if desired. Yield: 4 servings.

Hamburger Buns

1 cup water
2 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. salt
3 cups bread flour
3 tbsp. dry milk
1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast

Place all ingredients in your machine in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer. Select the Dough cycle and press start.

When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle. If dough is too elastic, cover and let rest 10 minutes before shaping.

Divide dough into 9 equal pieces. Form each piece into a smooth ball. Place on large greased baking sheet. Flatten balls into 4-in. rounds; cover. Let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, 20 to 30 minutes. Lightly beat egg white and 1 tbsp. water. Brush on buns. Sprinkle with sesame seed.

Bake at 375ºF. for 12 to 15 minutes or until done.

This recipe yields up to 9 buns.

The best recipe I know is my mom's:

For each pound of ground beef, add 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce and 1 tsp. of garlic powder. Mix well in a large bowl, using your hands. Shape into patties and grill. Top with your favorite toppings: cheese slices applied while the burger is still on the grill, tomatoes, onions, dill pickle slices, bacon, mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard are the typical American choices, since I don't know where you're from.

Not fancy, but just right!
