- Mix the patty ingredients, and then gently form four patties of equal size, each about 4 inches wide and 1 inch thick. With your thumb or the back of a spoon, make a shallow indentation about 1 inch wide in the center of the patties to prevent them from forming a dome as they cook. Grill the patties over direct medium heat, with the lid closed, until cooked to medium doneness 160°F , about 10 minutes, turning once. During the last 30 seconds to 1 minute of grilling time, toast the buns, cut side down, over direct heat.
