How long should you cook a half pound hamburger on a grill if you want it rare?

[Edit]

Answer

Ground beef should ALWAYS be fully cooked! It's not like eating a steak rare. More people have gotten sick from eating partially cooked hamburger (and there have been more recalls from companies on produced ground beef that is bad) so, take a risk ... eat it rare or hit the ER. It would take about 2 minutes on each side (enough to brown the meat quite well on each side. If in doubt about the inside, then take a fork and partially and gently pull a little of the meat apart in the middle of the burger.

Don't say you weren't warned about eating rare hamburger.
