Notes
When grilling Teriyaki Burgers, it's best to flip them multiple times to ensure even cooking and a great-tasting burger. You can also use a Thermapen to check the meat's internal temperature. The meat is cooked until it is cooked through. The meat is juicy and juicier than a regular hamburger. Make sure the beef is cooked thoroughly, as it will affect the flavor of the whole dish.
