Cooking your McLean Deluxe
1. Preheat an electric skillet to 400°.

3. Spray the preheated griddle lightly with non-stick spray to prevent sticking, and immediately add the frozen beef patty.
4. About 20 seconds after placing the beef patty on the griddle, SEAR lightly. Sprinkle with a liberal amount of hamburger seasoning. Turn after 2 minutes, being careful not to tear the sear you created. After turning, add another dash of hamburger seasoning.
