Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1 tbsp Burger rub
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 slices american cheddar, or jack cheese
  • 4 leaves iceburg lettuce

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer to the highest broil setting. (400-450 if using an Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi, 400 for other air fryers)
  • In a bowl, mix ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, and burger rub.
  • Using a kitchen scale (or by sight), divide ground beef into four equal balls.
  • Flatten the balls and press firmly to form patty shapes.
  • Place patties in broiler/air fryer basket (only place as many as you can fit without having them touch too much.)
  • Set timer for 10 minutes, and broil on high (for IP it is 400 degrees, 450 for Ninja Foodi).
  • Flip burger using long handled tongs - be careful as air fryer will be HOT.
  • Set timer for 5 minutes and broil more.
  • Check burgers internal temp - if 145+, and you're aiming for medium well done, add cheese. If under 140, broil additional 5 minutes.
  • When five minutes is up, open lid and add cheese slices. Close lid and let continue cooking for 5 minutes in air fryer heat.
  • When done cooking, remove and let sit for five minutes before serving.
  • Wrap in lettuce - either as a double-decker burger, or single patty burgers.
  • Enjoy!
