Poke a Hole in the Center of Your Burger

When making burgers, poke a hole straight through the middle with your finger after you have flattened them with your hands. This helps them cook faster, and stay flat. As the burger cooks, the holes fill in a bit, but it is also easier to check to see if they are done.

Source: I'm not sure where I heard this tip, but I've been cooking my burgers like this now for over 10 years!
