Notes

  • I used 80/20 ground chuck for these burgers. Don't put the hamburgers on the grill until it reaches about 400 degrees.
  • The calories shown are based on the recipe making 6 burgers, with 1 serving being 1 burger (no bun). Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate. **We are not dietitians and recommend you seek a nutritionist for exact nutritional information.**
