Top 8: The best beef burgers to pop on the barbeque this summer

From Dunnes Stores to M&S, there are plenty of high-quality tasty options to choose from

Burgers are not just for barbecues, they also make tasty, easy indoor meals all year round. A meal can be put together by frying or grilling indoors and setting out bowls of interesting accompaniments for self-assembly, indoors or out.  A 'pic'n'mix' meal may encourage children to eat more vegetables and it’s good to give them control of their preferences.

There are decent buns in supermarkets and bakeries that add to the pleasure of burgers, from baps to brioche to sourdough and plain yeast or cut-out rounds of your favourite bread or slice a baguette. Add greens in the form of shredded lettuce and cabbage, thinly sliced tomatoes, grated carrot, beetroot, chopped celery, thinly sliced spring onion or red onion (less strong than regular white), and roasted red peppers.
