1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion soup mix, and water.
2. Form the beef into patties, this should make 4-6 patties depending on the size, try to keep them 1/2 inch thick.
3. Place on the grill at 450 degrees F or stovetop in a skillet on medium heat.
4. Next, cook on both sides about 10 minutes each or until well done or to your preference, at least 165 degrees F.
5. Rest 2-3 minutes before serving.
6. Serve with your favorite toppings.

Tips for Making Onion Soup Mix Burgers:

• Use a quick read thermometer; for well-done burgers, they should be cooked until the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees F.
• Rest before serving – To let the juices penetrate the burgers, be sure to let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
• Do not overmix – If you overmix, it can lead to tough burgers.
• Use 80/20 ground beef or ground chuck – Leaner ground beef will also lead to drier burgers. This means that I don’t recommend using ground turkey; the meat will not be as juicy, but as always you can absolutely try it!
• Add cheese to make these cheeseburgers! If you want a smoky cheese, try provolone cheese.

This is the onion soup mix that we use and it is gluten-free, please remember that the Lipton Soup Mix is not, so if you need gluten-free, use the homemade version.

It’s so easy and uses ingredients right from your pantry, which means you do not need to go out and buy the mix; however, if you prefer, by all means, use Lipton Onion Soup Mix Packets.  It’ll work just as well!
