If you were to look into my freezer you would think that I was planning for a natural disaster. I have more racks of ribs, pork chops, and chickens that I can count. My biggest fear is to not have ribs when I want them. I realize this is nuts...therefore I have started to clean out my freezer for Spring. A couple of days ago I found a box of burgers left over from one of my backyard get-togethers. Though I normally prefer to make my own burgers, I will occasionally buy a box when I have to feed an army.
The key to grilling store bought burgers is the toppings. Here's my "go to" combination. You'll notice that I usually don't use tomatoes.
1) Cheese (Obviously)
3) Thick slice of white raw onion OR fried onions (I used both)
4) Pickles
Here's another little tip. When grilling for a party, I will put the coals on to one side of the grill. That helps me control the heat a little better. Burgers like these tend to flare up and you will burn them unless you have a cold side of the grill to slow down the cooking process.
