• Use a butter knife to separate the number of patties you want to grill from the frozen patty stack. Rewrap the remaining patties and put them in the freezer.
• Place the frozen patties on the grill. Using a metal spatula, turn them every five minutes for 20 to 25 minutes.
  Remove one of the burgers from the grill and place it on a clean plate. Use a meat thermometer to verify that the internal temperature of the burger reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
• If your grill has sections that are hotter than others, be sure to move the patties so they cook in the same proportion.
  You can also grill frozen burgers on an electric grill. Heat the appliance to medium and grill the patties for 12 to 16 minutes, depending on the specific instructions for your machine.
• To avoid contamination, wash your hands thoroughly after handling raw meat. Also, never place the grilled patties on the plate you used to carry the raw patties.
• When checking the internal temperature of broiled patties, always remove the patty from the grill first, and insert the meat thermometer into one side, not through.
