In a mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of ground beef, 1 tablespoon of grated onion, and 3 dashes of Worcestershire sauce. Gently mix the ingredients until just combined.

Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty, roughly ¾-inch thick. Make a ½-inch indent in the center of each patty.

Cover the formed patties and place them in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium heat. Sprinkle the chilled patties generously with salt and black pepper.

Once the grill or pan is hot, place the patties on the surface. Cook for 4 to 6 minutes per side until an internal temperature of 160°F is reached.

Transfer the patties to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Toast hamburger buns lightly, then place each rested patty on a bun and add your favorite toppings.
