Answers:
It would depend on how hot your grill is as to how long you cook them.
I always put Reynolds Release on my grill. This will help control flare-ups from the drippings that can cause your burger to 'burn.'
If you take your finger and poke a hole into the center of each patty, they will cook more evenly. The hole usually disappears when the burger is done.
All tomato based sauces (i.e. BBQ sauce or ketchup) should be put on during the last couple of minutes of cooking. If you put them on too soon, you will end up with burnt burgers.
We have from time to time lightly brushed some Teriyaki Sauce on on both sides of the burger prior to cooking.
If you have room, put some grilled onions and peppers on the grill to cook with the burgers. The aroma will cause everyone to want one of the burgers and some will put them on their hamburger.
