When making burgers, handle the meat as little as possible: a few pats with wet hands is all that's necessary to shape the patties. All-Time Favorite Burgers
How to Make It
Step 1
Light a grill. Shape the meat into 4 patties and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Wrap each hamburger with 2 slices of pancetta.
Step 2
Grill the burgers over a medium-hot fire for about 4 minutes, or until nicely browned on the bottom. Flip the burgers and top them with the Gorgonzola. Grill for about 4 minutes longer, or until nicely browned and cooked through.
Step 3
Meanwhile, brush the cut sides of the buns with the butter and grill them, cut side down, until lightly toasted.
Step 4
Set the burgers on the bun bottoms and top with the lettuce, tomato and onion. Serve at once.
