Best Burgers For 4th Of July Grilling

We are one week away from the biggest holiday of the summer, the one that celebrates our nation's independence. It's more likely than not that your celebration will involve food and cooking out. For TikTok Tuesday I rounded up some videos showing the best burgers for 4th of July grilling. People who like to grill, love to give tips. And let's face it, there are lots of home cooks who could use a few tips.

On the surface, burgers seem so simple. But it is an art to cook them just right. There is also an art to selecting and seasoning the beef. Some people mix ingredients such as onions and bacon inside of the beef rather than putting it on top after it has cooked. Then there are the best ways to form the patties. So-called smash burgers are all the rage right now so I have a recipe featuring some of those as well. As you can see, this simple grilled meat can take many twists and turns before it hits your plate.

Grilling burgers is an essential part of most 4th of July celebrations in the United States. But not all burgers are created equally.

Even if you are accomplished at cooking and or grilling, sometimes it's nice to get new ideas. My social media feeds have been full of grill tips and juicy burgers. So I gathered the top five videos that showed up last night and put them here. You don't need to have a TikTok account to watch these. Simply scroll down and hit the little arrow to play from this site. Also, if chicken is on your grilling radar this holiday rather than burgers. I've got something for you as well.
