Cooking burgers in the oven is an alternative method to achieve evenly cooked and juicy patties. Unlike grilling or pan-frying, which require constant monitoring and flipping, oven-baked burgers offer convenience without sacrificing taste and texture.
The duration of oven cooking for burgers depends on several factors, including patty thickness, oven temperature, and desired doneness. As a general rule, a 1-inch thick patty cooked at 375F (190C) will take approximately 15-20 minutes to reach medium doneness. Adjusting the cooking time and temperature allows for customization based on personal preferences and the number of burgers being cooked.
