I Made Ina Garten’s Burgers, and They Were Perfectly Juicy

Ina Garten has come up with multiple different burger recipes during her decades-long career.

Ahead of Labor Day weekend, I decided to give one of her burger recipes a try. The recipe for smashed hamburgers with caramelized onions called to me because of its simplicity — a number of the ingredients I needed were already in my pantry. Plus, unlike other burger recipes, I didn’t need a grill. 

I recently moved into a new apartment, meaning my cooking utensils and pantry staples were severely lacking. However, I had most of the things I needed to start cooking — a testament to Ina Garten’s flair for simple, yet delicious, recipes.
