"over-saucing and placing the burger on the bun too quickly."
"Always toast your buns and let your burgers 'rest' for a couple of minutes before placing them on the bun,"
"Some people like to put the lettuce on the bottom to help protect and insulate the bun."
To prevent soggy hamburger buns, toast buns and allow hot patties to rest a couple minutes before assembly so buns absorb less grease and condiments. Avoid over-saucing and refrain from placing the burger on the bun immediately. Strategically stack toppings to shield the bun: place dry lettuce on the bottom as an insulating barrier and keep washed lettuce as dry as possible. Be mindful of liquid-bearing toppings such as pickles and sauces. Choosing higher-quality, sturdier buns reduces rapid absorption. Taking time with toasting and assembly preserves texture and improves overall burger enjoyment.
