Instructions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.

2. Whisk together egg, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.

3. Add ground beef and bread crumbs and mix with your hands or a fork until well blended.

4. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.

5. Place patties on the preheated grill. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
