A most requested recipe for juicy burgers, whether you grill or pan fry them. Dissolving the salt and pepper in ice water distributes the spices evenly throughout the meat just as some sausage makers do when making sausage. Cook time depends on how well done you like your meat.

This recipe is really good. I did add garlic powder and instead of using 2 T of water, I used only 1 T. water and 1 T. Worchestire sauce for more flavor. I also added a small pat of butter in the middle of the burger as well. The recipe is very moist and delicious!

    Marie what a JUICY burger! My family really enjoyed these burgers! I added onion, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro to the ground beef and cajun seasoning, liquid smoke and garlic powder to the water. I grilled them indoors. YUMMY! I will definitely only use this method for burgers from now on.
