Notes

  • Use 80/20 beef for the juiciest texture.
  • Avoid overmixing the meat mixture.
  • Cover loosely with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  • Leftovers reheat beautifully in the air fryer.
  • Add shredded cheese to the center for a fun twist.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
