Taco Burger FAQ's
What is the best meat for making a great Taco Burger?
These taco burgers are great using 85/20 ground beef. The perfect ratio for a great burger. Ground Turkey and chicken are also great options for these burgers.
Can these burgers be made ahead of time?
For a great burger, my recommendation is to make these right when you want to enjoy a good juicy burger. Reheating a burger can cause it to dry out and the flavors won’t be as delicious!
Can the taco burgers be frozen for a make ahead burger?
Form the burgers into patties! Use a Foodsaver or freezer bags. Place wax paper between each burger before freezing. Burgers can be stored 3-4 months in the freezer.
How long does it take to grill burgers?
- Medium-rare: Grill the burger for three minutes then flip and grill another four minutes.
- Medium: Grill the burger for three minutes then flip and grill another five minutes.
- Medium well: Grill the burger for four minutes then flip and grill for another five minutes.
- Well done: Grill the burger for four minutes then flip and grill for another six minutes.
