Ingredients

• 1 pound ground lean beef 
• 1 large egg 
• ½ cup minced onion 
• ¼ cup fine dried bread crumbs 
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire 
• 1 or 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced 
• About 1/2 tsp salt 
• About 1/4 tsp pepper 
• 4 hamburger buns (4 in. wide), split 
• About 1/4 cup mayonnaise 
• About 1/4 cup ketchup 
• 4 iceberg lettuce leaves, rinsed and crisped 
• 1 firm-ripe tomato, cored and thinly sliced 
• 4 thin slices red onion

Instructions
In a bowl, mix ground beef, egg, onion, bread crumbs, Worcestershire, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until well blended. Divide mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty about 4 inches wide.
Lay burgers on an oiled barbecue grill over a solid bed of hot coals or high heat on a gas grill. Close lid on gas grill. Cook burgers, turning once, until browned on both sides and no longer pink inside, 7 to 8 minutes total. Remove from grill.
Lay buns, cut side down, on grill and cook until lightly toasted, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Spread mayonnaise and ketchup on bun bottoms. Add lettuce, tomato, burger, onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Set bun tops in place! Enjoy!
