\nLooking for the perfect burger recipe for\u00a0 your Labor Day cookout? The one below from Food Network star Bobby Flay will bring amazing flavor and win raves with your backyard bbq guests! Fire up your charcoal grill<\/a>, have plenty of cold beverage and friends, and let the party begin!<\/p>\n

Bobby Flay’s Basic Burger<\/p>\n

Shape 6 ounces of 80% lean ground beef chuck into a uniform patty, no more than 3\/4 inch thick (don’t overwork the meat). Make a depression in the center with your thumb so the burger won’t bulge; the indent will rise as the patty cooks. Preheat a grill to high. Brush the burger with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, turning once (7 minutes for medium-rare). Avoid pressing with a spatula! Add cheese for the last minute of cooking.<\/p>\n

For a special Labor Day treat, add the toppings to make Bobby’s Philly Burger. Simply add Provolone cheese, pickled hot peppers and roasted red peppers, and saut\u00e9ed onions to your grilled burgers.<\/p>\n
