Cooking Tips

• For extra flavor, you can add diced onions or minced garlic to the ground beef mixture.
• Make sure to let the patties rest after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute and keep them moist.
• If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the patties on a stovetop grill pan or in a skillet.
• Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking, such as adding sliced pickles or cheese.

Storage and Serving

• These burgers are best served immediately while they are still hot and juicy.
• If you have leftovers, store the patties and coleslaw separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
• To reheat the patties, you can grill them for a few minutes or warm them in a skillet.
• Serve the reheated patties on fresh buns with a fresh batch of coleslaw.
