Guy Fieri's 4-Step Burger Blueprint for Perfect Barbecue
Celebrity chef Guy Fieri shares a four-part approach to building the ultimate burger: start with seasoned 80/20 ground beef and smash it on a hot griddle for deep caramelization, finish with American cheese melted using steam from a dome for perfect melt, and assemble on a toasted buttered brioche bun with LTOP (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles) prepared thin for crisp texture and balanced flavor.
