4. 4
   Pour about 1 tablespoon of oil over the fries and toss with fingers to coat evenly.

   In a mixing bowl, mix hamburger, garlic, seasoned salt, onion powder and salt and pepper.
10. 10
    Mix well with hands.
11. 11
    Form 4 large patties.
12. 12
    I like to make really rustic, greasy diner-style patties with no uniform shape.
13. 13
    Place in a large preheated skillet over medium heat, preferably one with deep sides.
14. 14
    Brown burgers on each side until done.

    Do not drain the grease.

    Add the flour a tablespoon at a time, stirring with a whisk.
18. 18
    You have enough when the grease is all absorbed and the flour mixture gets thick and bubbly.

    Slowly add the broth a little at a time, whisking constantly.

    Place a hamburger on top of the fries and cover it all amply in gravy.
