Grill the Burgers:
Place the patties on the hot grill. Cover and cook for 6–8 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads at least 160°F (70°C).

Storage Tips

Refrigeration:

Cooked beef patties can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.

Freezing:

You can freeze cooked patties for up to 4 months. Wrap each burger in foil to prevent sticking, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. Label with the date before storing.
