Instant Pot Hamburgers

So, what in the world made me think to steam a hamburger in my Instant Pot? I was craving my husband’s famous potato packets (recipe coming soon), and I was sad because it’s still too cold to break out the grill. Then I thought hey, I can make those in my Instant Pot! But we usually have them with burgers. Hmmm, I wonder what burgers made in packets like the potatoes would taste like?

I could fry up a burger in my cast iron pan, and I do sometimes, but I needed to try this idea. I’m into trying new things. So, that’s what I did! It took a few tests as my first burgers were not as juicy as I wanted. You have to use a higher fat content to get that really juicy Instant Pot Hamburger (or any burger).
