Wagyu Bergers - Best Method

[AA-Ron_W]

Over the pandemic I found and fell in love with cooking A5 Wagyu steaks at home. I've now ordered enough that they send me free ground wagyu beef with my orders, so I guess its time to make some bergers. Anyone have experience with this? Thoughts on the best preperation method? Straight grill over charcoal sounds good but might lose too much of the fat/juiciness. Seared in cast iron could preseve the juices, but seems like it wouldn't add as much flavor as charcoal or even a treager.

I make wagyu smash burgers on my Blackstone. Pretty dang tasty.

Happy to make some reccomendations if you're ready to dabble ;)
I highly reccomend it, worth every penny of $100 to $150 to get started.

If you are cooking those to more of a medium than a well done then I would think charcoal would give you a little more flavor but I don't have any experience with Wagyu.
