As strange as it sounds, add a splash of milk to the mix just before making the patties. This will keep them moist and juicy.

What's the best way to keep the burgers flat (or bun sized)? I nearly always have burgers that shrink up? Do I need to make them about bun sized in diameter before putting them on the grill?

I'd make them larger than bun size, and make them pretty flat - they'll always have a tendency to contract in and up, so size the patties with that in mind.
