Step 1
Start by heating your grill to high. In a bowl, combine the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, chopped basil, garlic salt, and a bit of pepper. Mix everything gently, then shape the mixture into four patties. Give the grill grates a light coating of oil to prevent sticking. Place the burgers on the grill and cook for about 6 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Aim for an internal temperature of 160°F, or cook them to how you like. Once done, pop the burgers onto buns and enjoy!
