Best Hamburger Recipe?
-
Hello Everyone,
With Memorial Day around the corner, Grilling Season is upon us! Yah Baby!
I’m looking to make the “best” burger this summer. What meat grind recipe would you recommend? As always, thank you in advance for your replies!
PokeChop ultimate steak and roast.

1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder

Hey Everyone,
I’ve made lots of sausages, however this will be my first time making hamburger. How many passes through the grinder do you grind the meat? My thought was first pass 3/8" plate and then final pass 1/8" plate. What have you found to work the best?

PokeChop yes afterwards, but it really does not matter. I grind though a 8mm then through 5mm add spices mix and cook. If you want to add spices at some point in the grind cycle that would do just fine too.

PokeChop I know the recipe seems simple but the accent and soy sauce really takes the umami sensation to the next level.

PokeChop I like it ground one time with 3/8. If you ever get a “great” burger from a class place, that’s the grind they use. Just mix it enough to let it get sticky. I like to let them sit in the fridge for a couple hours to let them meld the flavors and set up. Have fun with it. I’ve made burgers with chuck, brisket, sirloin (with a little fat) and combos of all. Like the brisket or brisket/chuck the best. But, who am I. You get the mouthfeel or taste you or your family like. You will never buy ground meat again. I picked up a little trick from someone on this site for the extra you don’t make into patties: wrap it in plastic wrap first, then vacuum pack it. That way, none of the juices will escape. Just have fun with it.

I grind all of our hb once to twice a year. I purchase whole packers of brisket, sirloin and chuck. Whack em up and grind away. Weigh each out to 1 lb packages and vav em up and into the freezer.

@dennyo Yep, many people like you have quality on the minds because you know what’s in there. Congrats to you and all of the rest. Definitely a great combo with many uses throughout the year.

zbigjeff When you grind the brisket, do you trim it at all or just use the untrimmed whole packer brisket?

Chef I remove any silver skin for sure. Then, I trim to get about an 80/20 blend (eye ball) and save the rest of the fat for when I grind a meat like sirloin when you need the fat content.

zbigjeff Makes sense. Thanks. I’m beginning to grind my own ground meat. Until recently, I just had too much volume to deal with the equipment I had. sounds like a blend of brisket and a leaner cut would be perfect.

Chef Your blend if also perfect. I did three different grinds recently. One was pure brisket. Next was brisket and sirloin and the 3rd was brisket and chuck. Because of the sirloin type (basically beef knuckle) was soooo lean, I used all of the reserved fat for that mix. I used some for hamburger patties and the rest I portioned it out into 2 lb vac packs for whatever I want to do with it in the future. I caught all of the meats at a reasonable price before the huge jump in prices lately. Got the brisket for 3.29, knuckle at 2.69 and the chuck for 3.69 bulk at a restaurant supply house in town. Just went back the other day and brisket was at 4.79, knuckle at 3.79 and chuck at 4.59. Yep, a pretty decent jump.

lkrfletcher Do you add any fat or does the roast (Chuck I assume) provide enough?
PokeChop I do not add additional fat.

You may also want to try some of Walton’s Patty Mixes. The Jalapeno is excellent, but be advised. It is hot. May want to add to ten lbs instead of 6.

there was a conversation past about adding bone Maro to the grind
Lamb will definitely be part of the mix.
