Equipment

  • Air Fryer (Here's the air fryer I like best on Amazon)

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef 85/15
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Montreal steak seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Break the ground beef apart into a mixing bowl so the seasoning can distribute evenly.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the beef. Sprinkle the Montreal steak seasoning and salt evenly over the top.
  • Gently mix the beef until the seasoning is just combined. Do not overwork the meat, or the burgers may become tough.
  • Divide the beef mixture into 3 equal portions, about 150–160 grams each. A kitchen scale works well for evenly sized burgers.
  • Shape each portion into a disc-shaped burger patty.
  • Place the patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry at 400°F for 8–10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
  • Serve on buns, in lettuce wraps, or with your favorite burger toppings.

Notes

  • No flipping is required for this recipe.
  • Cook time may vary slightly depending on the air fryer and patty thickness.
  • Montreal steak seasoning contains salt, so reduce the added salt if desired.
  • For cheeseburgers, add cheese after cooking and close the air fryer basket for 30–60 seconds to melt.
  • Use an instant-read thermometer for the best results.
  • Serve these air fryer burgers on buns, in lettuce wraps, or over a burger bowl with your favorite cheese, sauces, and toppings.
