From Hilary Pollack, your About Food Editor

Some of us like ours smothered in melty cheese, extra-juicy in the middle, or even made out of lentils and vegetables, but the truth is, we all love a good burger every once in a while. And what better time than now? May is National Burger Month, and it's time to fire up your grills and make some flame-broiled magic. Here are some of our favorite ways to celebrate the almighty hamburger.

Simple and Super
There's a reason that when you order a cheeseburger, you pretty much know what you're gonna get. Why mess with a good thing? But it's fun to remix the seasonings, cheeses, and format of the ubiquitous handheld. Thanks to our Experts, it's easier than ever to grill up perfection.

    Gettin' Veggie With It
    We've got love for our vegan and vegetarian readers, too! The great thing about veggie burgers is how many varieties there are; some are made out of tofu, some out of greens, and others out of grains and beans. But no matter what, they're all tasty!

    Who Needs Beef?
    Hamburgers can be meaty without being beefy. Everything from shrimp to chicken to lamb can sub in for the standard ground chuck. Try one of these instead!

    Fixin's For All
    Fresh-cut French fries and an awesome cheese/condiment combo can really take a burger to the next level. Try making a fresh bun or thick-cut steak fries to elevate your cookout to the gourmet circuit.
