I loosely form a big 8oz patty with freshly ground beef and season with salt and pepper. I cook it like I do a steak. Sear on a hot cast iron skillet to get a nice crust and cook in a 500 degree oven for about ten minutes. Gives me a perfect medium well burger every time. I honestly think that the less you mess with a burger the better. Oh and I cook it on a rack in the oven so it doesn't cook in it's grease. I think having it ground not too long before cooking makes a big difference.

That Siracha/Mayo sounds freaking amazing dude. I'm trying that this weekend.

Can honestly say I've never heard of anyone ever doing this. That's just waaaaaay too much heat on a burger for me. Especially if you're going through all the trouble to get ground meat that fresh.

I've tried this recently and makes for a better burger in my opinion. I do mine 1.5 min on each side at med/high heat in a skillet with a little bit of butter and olive oil in the pan (just enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan) to get a crust on the outside of the burger and 5-10min in an oven at 400 degrees. The crust makes the difference to me and the burger comes out medium.
