Keep the cooked burger patties in airtight containers in the fridge.<\/p>\n<h3>How long do ranch burgers last?<\/h3>\n<p>These ranch burgers will last up to four days in the refrigerator if the ingredients are all stored separately. Wait to assemble the burgers until you&#8217;re ready to eat to avoid soggy buns.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze ranch burgers?<\/h3>\n<p>You can freeze uncooked ranch burger patties for up to three months. After forming the patties, place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze them until completely frozen. Transfer the frozen patties to a resealable freezer bag. Thaw them in the fridge overnight, or cook them from frozen to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/air-fryer-frozen-burgers\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/air-fryer-frozen-burgers\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">air-fryer frozen burgers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you reheat a ranch burger?<\/h3>\n<p>Reheat ranch burgers quickly in the microwave, or sear them in a pan on the stovetop. Cook until the burgers reach an internal temperature of 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make ranch burgers ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/burger-recipes-youre-not-making-yet\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/burger-recipes-youre-not-making-yet\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">burger recipes<\/a> taste best when they&#8217;re fresh off the grill, so we don&#8217;t recommend cooking this ranch burger recipe ahead of time. However, you can make the burger patties ahead of time and store uncooked patties in the freezer for up to three months.<\/p>\n<h2>Ranch Burger Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2044317\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Ranch-Burger_FT24_277102_JR_0906_9.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"wide shot of ranch burgers with fries\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do you keep burger patties from falling apart?<\/h3>\n<p>The best way to keep burger patties from falling apart is to make sure your grill is preheated and oiled before adding them. Then, perhaps most importantly, wait to move the patties until they form a good sear and lift naturally off the grill grates. They can fall apart if you try to move them too early. Once the bottom sear is formed, the patty can be easily flipped.<\/p>\n<h3>How else can you cook ranch burgers?<\/h3>\n<p>As much as I love grilling, I also love cooking burgers on a flattop griddle or making <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/pan-fried-burgers\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/pan-fried-burgers\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pan-fried burgers on the stove<\/a>. If you don&#8217;t want to cook them all the way through on the stovetop, you can start them there to get a sear on both sides and finish them in the oven.

The cooking time varies depending on the burger&#8217;s thickness and desired level of doneness. The easiest way to achieve the type of doneness you&#8217;re looking for is to use a thermometer. The USDA recommends cooking burgers to 160\u00b0 (well-done). If you decide to cook burgers to a lower temperature, shoot for 130\u00b0 for medium-rare, 140\u00b0 for medium or 150\u00b0 for medium-well.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you serve with ranch burgers?<\/h3>\n<p>There&#8217;s nothing more classic than a burger and fries, and this burger goes great with everything from french fries and waffle fries to tater tots. If you&#8217;re looking to round out the ranch burger recipe with something green, it would go great with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/kale-salad-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/kale-salad-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">kale salad recipes<\/a>, a side of green beans or asparagus, or a crunchy coleslaw.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This ranch burger recipe will give your barbecue night a much-needed update, thanks to the magic of ranch dressing mix.
