How do you properly pan fry a hamburger patty?

Asked by Zone36 (416points) January 19th, 2010

I don’t have a griddle or a grill. Every time I make them they either get burnt or end up drying out.

I have a teflon pan and nothing else.

Let’s just say I’m making about 4oz patties.

What temp should I start at or finish at?

Should I cover them?

How long should it take each size?

How can I get them nice and brown on the outside without burning?

How can I get them cooked through without drying out?

Should I also get rid of fat after each patty?

Using Fluther
