To cook, place the patties on a preheated grill or in a hot skillet. Cook for several minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. Avoid pressing down on the patties while they cook, as this can release valuable juices. Once cooked through, remove from heat and let rest briefly before serving. They are excellent served on buns with your favorite toppings or enjoyed on their own.
