Finely crush breadcrumbs and add to a large mixing bowl. Add the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, egg, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix with a wooden spoon and combine till everything is mixed. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape into a 4-5” (10-12cm) patty roughly 1” (2.54cm) high. Set burgers on a platter and refrigerate for 1 hour to firm before cooking.
When ready to cook, set burgers on a greased barbeque grill over medium-high heat. Grill burgers for 3 minutes. Flip over and continue to grill for 3 additional minutes for medium/rare; 6 additional minutes for medium and 7 minutes for well done.
Remove the burgers and let rest while you grill the buns. Add the burgers to the buns and dress with toppings.
Chef Note: For a perfectly grilled burger, flip once and only once! Constant turning will toughen and dry out the meat. Grilling for 3 minutes on one the one side before flipping creates a nice sear and helps to seal in the juices.
