Same here. All that flipping doesn’t give you time to take a drink from your adult beverage.

Yep, multiple flips just dries it out.

I was taught that too. And yes, as ryderann said, you have to have time to sip the adult beverage while grilling.

I've always just flipped once.

4-6 minutes on one side (depending on thickness) and then 4-6 minutes on the other side.

I also never squeeze them with the spatula. Keep all those juices in the burger.

The burgers I cook are thick and I cook them medium-rare.

I also hate the practice of having the cheese go on the burger while still on the grill. I put the cheese on only after the burgers come off the grill. The cheese still gets a little soft but doesn't turn into goo.

Interesting thread.

In the last 25 years, I’ve cooked thousands of cow and venison burgers on my George Forman grills. It cooks them perfectly. 5 minutes and 30 seconds cooks them just right for us, no need to flip, and I get grill marks. I measure my burgers in inches.

flip it before then to keep the juices inside

Me, too, but I will rotate it to get a cross-hatch grill mark.

I also don’t cook 1 centimeter thick burgers in 80 seconds.
