Instructions
- Add the ground beef, worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder and pepper to a large bowl. Mix the ingredients together with your hands until combined (without overworking the meat).
- Divide into four equal parts, about 4-oz. each. Shape into 1/4 - 1/2-inch patties.
- Press your thumb into the middle of the burger to create a divot (so it doesn’t puff up in the middle when it cooks). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes if time allows.
- Mix the softened butter and mustard in a small bowl.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. Spray basket with cooking spray and place burger patties in a single layer. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Flip the burgers and brush with the butter mixture. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until desired doneness (see notes below for cooking times). Add cheese the last minute of cooking.
- Serve on a bun (or lettuce wrap for lower carb) with red onions, tomato, lettuce and lots of special sauce and eat up! :)
Notes
- Getting the internal temperature right is the most important part of cooking a burger! Remember, cooking time will vary amongst different air fryers, burger thickness and how you like your burger cooked. The best way to ensure desired doneness is to check your meat with an instant read thermometer.

- Ingredient notes:
- Ground beef: I know 96/4 beef is too lean for some people (me too sometimes) so just want to say, 90/10 ground beef is still lean and works great here - don't let that deter you from the recipe!
- Special sauce: If possible, make sauce in advance and give it time to chill in the fridge. This will allow the flavors to come together more. 24 hours of chill time is great, but if 30 minutes is all you can do, some chill time is better than none!
- Nutrition notes: Burger patties, cheese, buns and toppings are all included in nutrition. Everything but the special sauce is included so you can add as much or as little as you wish. Nutrition calculated with Martin's buns and Kraft cheese.
