Instructions
Preheat your air fryer for 5 minutes at 375°F.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix them lightly-- make sure not to pack the beef together too tightly.
Divide the beef mixture into four patties-- press them down until they are no thicker than ½”.
Place the burgers in the preheated air fryer basket and cook for 7 minutes. Check for doneness and cook longer if necessary. Internal temperature should reach 160°F.
If making cheeseburgers, place one slice of cheese over each burger and cook for an additional 1 minute. Serve on buns with your desired toppings.
Notes
If you like well-done burgers, cook a bit longer. If you like your burgers cooked medium, cook for a bit less time. A meat thermometer should be used to check internal temperature for doneness.Store any leftover cheeseburgers in the fridge for up to two days.
