Best Juicy Burger Recipe

After two marathon posts yesterday on the backyard bbq shoot, I had to keep it simple today!  I'm sharing my favorite burger recipe that's perfect for backyard grilling.  I first tasted this recipe when my girlfriend made it several years ago, and it's been a staple ever since.  These burgers are moist and delicious every time!

"Big Juicy Burgers"
12 oz. V8 juice
3 slices white bread, torn into pieces
3 lbs. ground beef
1 large egg
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Microwave v8 juice in a glass bowl for 1 minute; add bread pieces and let cool.  Combine with hands.
Combine bread/juice mixture, beef, and remaining ingredients and shape into patties.
Grill patties over direct medium heat 8-10 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
Serve on buns with condiments and enjoy!

Good idea adding the bread! What type of beef do you use (how fatty)?

Jen, I like to use 80% lean. It's just enough fat to add flavor, but not so much it shrinks too much when cooked.
