• For best results form a divot in the center of each burger before cooking, this helps them cook evenly. Also never press on a burger while it cooks, you'll get some flame and smoke but only at the expense of losing juice that belongs in the burger.
• Chimichurri Sauce:.
• Whisk everything together.
• You may serve immediately but this condiment is at its best after a day or two of refrigeration.
