How to cook Angus burgers?

Question

I need instructions on how to cook angus burgers. How long do they usually take to cook all the way through, I'm not an awesome cook when it comes to meat..I spent my entire life as a vegintarian. I can never seem to know when the meat is done and I have to make a "test" burger to split open. Is there a better way? Thanks

Answer 1

You could get a meat thermonmeter and pull the burgers off when they hit about 145 to 150 degrees F in the center. (The time depends on how thick the burger is.) Then you put them in a foil pouch to let them rest and let the juices re-distrubute for 5 to 7 minutes. The temperture should increase by about 5 degrees while they rest, so food illness is decreased.

Answer 3

Angus is just a type of ground beef. They cook the same way as hamburgers. I would say maybe you don't want to cook them all the way through, but if you do, cook until the juices run clear. I would say maybe about 4 mins on each side. Make sure your flame is low, you don't want to char the outside of them before the inside is done. And watch for flareups, if you cook until the fat runs out, it will flare up and give an off flavor to the burger. Lastly, you could purchase a food thermometer...140 degrees for medium, and 165 for well done. Good luck, and email me with any questions!

OH YEAH! One more thing...you don't have to make a 'test' burger, you could always just crack it open a little to see the inside, and then serve crack side down on the bun!

Answer 4

I usually cook burgers until they quit bleeding on both sides, then maybe just a little longer. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the burger.

Answer 5

If cooking on the bar-b-q cook on one side until blood appears, turn over wait until juices run clear. Do not keep turning.

Answer 6

Angus is just hamburger, there's nothing special about it.
