So, what's the right formula? 50/30/20? I doubt I want 20% "other" in my burger, at least, not knowingly, but really, is 10 too little for a little guy like you?

Funny you should say that, because that is exactly what I did! I did make it in burger format, of course. 90/10 is garbage meat, garbage texture. Simply horrible. On top of it, I had tough lettuce, too. What a piss-poor meal. The mayonnaise and the pickle chunks tasted good, and were really the only reason it was even edible.

Terrible burger, even the lettuce was tough. No beer, just Zima. no ambiance and rude staff. “ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx ★ Posted October 1, 2020 Share #9 Posted October 1, 2020 The boxed gourmet burgers in the lgs are 75/25 and they grill up with a great flavor. But then the grill burns off much of the fat. IMO 80/20 is probably the best all around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you Nancy-boys out there who get the leanest beef they can find simply don't deserve a good burger, and I spit on your grave (preemptively)! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I left myself no tip, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably quite a few tips - especially if a new guy is working the grinder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution MickinMD ★ Posted October 1, 2020 Solution Share #22 Posted October 1, 2020 I agree. When Christopher Kimball was running America's Test Kitchen, he pointed out over and over that there was much more taste in 80:20 ground beef that you lost when you hit 90%. I had to add a significant amount of oil to the pan to fry 90%+ ground beef and eventually figured I might as well let 80% fry mostly in its own tasty fat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
