  1. Little too rare for a burger, for my taste.. however, when done correctly, reverse sear on a really thick burger is definitely the BEST way to get a juicy, tender interior, with an amazing crust. This method takes time and patience, but compared to cooking it quickly, like on a gas grill, it's difficult to get the best of both worlds like that.. great crust is easy, but it's either raw, or dry on the inside, and they usually shrink a lot, or become tough.. but honestly, the best solution to avoid any of these problems is to just cook a less massive burger! Quick, easy, juicy, crusty, tender, delicious!

  2. I love a rare steak but 120° is the minimum for a steak because you are cooking off the surface bacteria. You need to cook ground beef to at least 160° in the middle because the bacteria is ground into the meat during processing. You would think America's test kitchen would know better.
