    Are you planning on firing up the grill for your Fourth of July celebration? Here & Now resident chef Kathy Gunst brings hosts Jeremy Hobson and Peter O’Dowd tips and samples of beef, turkey-feta and vegetarian burgers.

    Classic Burger

    This is the simplest of recipes, but there are certain “tricks” that can make the difference between a great burger and just a good burger.

Ask for freshly ground beef, with at least 20 percent fat so you have a juicy, flavorful burger. Yes, it will cost you a few bucks more than the store-bought variety — but the flavor payoff is huge.
