For burgers
Divide ground beef into 4 equal parts. Form into patties that are about 3/4 inch thick, without overworking and smashing the meat too much.
Season the exterior fairly generously with salt and pepper, the same way you would season a steak before pan searing. This helps create a nice brown crust on the outside of the burgers.
Preheat a large skillet (cast iron is my favorite) to medium high heat. When skillet is hot, add about 1 tablespoon avocado oil and two of the burger patties. Cook for about 3 minutes, undisturbed, on each side for medium rare burgers.
