Adding bread and milk to the beef creates burgers that are juicy and tender even when well-done.
Directions
1. Using large chimney starter, ignite 6 quarts charcoal (about 100 briquettes) and burn until covered with thin coating of light gray ash, about 20 minutes. Empty coals into grill; build modified two-level fire by arranging coals to cover half of grill. Position cooking grate over coals, cover grill, and heat grate for 5 minutes; scrape grate clean with grill brush. Grill is ready when coals are medium-hot (you can hold your hand 2 inches above grate for 3 to 4 seconds).
2. Meanwhile, mash bread and milk in large bowl with fork until homogeneous (you should have about ¼ cup). Stir in salt, pepper, garlic, and steak sauce.
3. Break up beef into small pieces over bread mixture. Using fork or hands, lightly mix together until mixture forms cohesive mass. Divide meat into 4 equal portions. Gently toss one portion of meat back and forth between hands to form loose ball. Gently flatten into ¾-inch-thick patty that measures about 4½ inches in diameter. Press center of patty down with fingertips until it is about ½ inch thick, creating slight depression in each patty. Repeat with remaining portions of meat.
4. Lightly dip wad of paper towels in oil; holding wad with tongs, wipe cooking grate. Grill burgers on hot side of grill, uncovered, until well seared on first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Using wide metal spatula, flip burgers and continue grilling, about 3 minutes for medium-well or 4 minutes for well-done. Add cheese about 2 minutes before reaching desired doneness, covering burgers with disposable aluminum pan to melt cheese.



Many cooks who use ground meat in their recipes want to drain off the excess fat that accumulates in the pan as the meat browns. Pat Brown of Telluride, Colorado, tilts the pan so the fat will accumulate on one side and blots it with wadded-up sheets of paper towel that she holds with tongs. This way, no meat spills from the pan, and a maximum amount of fat is removed. If using a gas burner, be sure to deep the oily paper away from the flame.
