How to Grill Hamburgers on Charcoal
We use a charcoal grill to cook hamburgers. My number one tip for grilling burgers on charcoal is to use a charcoal chimney starter. There is nothing worse than biting into a hamburger and having it taste like lighter fluid. A chimney charcoal starter is super easy to use and leaves no residue on your food. All you are going to taste is a delicious burger. Don’t miss our instructional video below:
How to Cook Hamburgers without a Grill
Don’t have a grill or don’t want to deal with the hassle of setting up the grill for burgers? You can easily cook the hamburgers inside. Our preferred method is using a cast-iron skillet: https://www.plainchicken.com/cast-iron-skillet-burgers/. SO easy and the burgers are ready to eat in under 10 minutes.

What to Serve With Hamburgers
When it comes to serving up the perfect burger, I’ve got some delicious suggestions to complete your meal. First off, you gotta have a side of crispy, golden french fries. Another classic option is some coleslaw and baked beans. If you’re feeling adventurous, try grilling up some corn on the cob or serving a vibrant green salad with a homemade dressing. The possibilities are endless! So fire up the grill, flip those patties, and get ready to enjoy the perfect burger with these sensational sides. It’s a meal that will have everyone asking for seconds!
