    Would you all recommend seasoning, shaping, freezing, and vac pack a larger group of patties or just freeze and pack unseasoned hb?

      samspade I really never make the exact same burger two times in a row, it all depends on the bun I choose to buy and what seasoning mood that I am in. I never freeze hamburger preformed/seasoned.

        samspade if freezing i like to have them already seasoned and ready to go when thawed, but it’s a preference thing to me I’ve done it both ways and convenience seems to be the only difference. Fresh is always best, but unfortunately that is not always and option.

          samspade I did 10lbs of jalapeño burgers 🍔 the other day. Vac sealed in packages of 6. They work great for a quick meal. You can separate the patties while frozen and they thaw quickly and ready for the grill. 20200824_123559.jpg

            1 teaspoon ground black pepper
            1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning
            1⁄2 teaspoon brown sugar
            1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
            1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
            Add mixture to burger at the rate of 2 tsp/lb of meat
            Add 4 teaspoons soy sauce/1lb burger.
            Form into patties and cook as desired.

            I am definitely gonna try this. I normally put a little Worcestershire and normally blend beef and pork.

                The other day I wondered & mentioned to someone the idea of taking brisket & grinding it with bacon, to make a bacon burger. I had never heard of it done before to make a burger, but something I must have seen somewhere made me think of it, so I mentioned it to one of my sons & I think we are going to try that some time. Does anyone know if it has been done before?

                    calldoctoday I know a lot of people get their venison ground with bacon for burgers. I can’t remember the ratio off the top of my head but it does happen often.

                      HerbcoFood OK, bout like most things I have come up with over the years, eventually I find it in the hardware store or something, already in existence. I had never tried the venison with bacon, just venison with pork for the venison burger, so it was not as dry. That worked good for burgers, we always just liked ours plain lean for pretty much everything else we used venison grind for, other than of course sausage.

                          HerbcoFood I shop HEB for some things, but beginning about 5 years ago, they shifted to a lot of private labels and ready to cook foods. I will not pay more for a private label than a national brand with few exceptions.

                          Look at the price. $8.23 for two half pound patties. Might be quality beef, but it is the trimmings off their steaks and roasts.

                          They are doing nothing for the consumer. Taking advantage of those who do not know better.

                          Anyone in the Houston area that wants to pay $8.00 plus for hamburger patties, just contact me.

                            Chef That’s why I only get them from time to time, also I like it when that manager’s special sticker is on there…

                            Also I have never seen anyone really buy those meat patties.

                              ^^^^ That is CRAZY! I normally get some eye of round at $2.99/lbs and mix in my brisket fat trimming, or I mix in some fatty pork and call it a day. I never look at this fancy stuff

                                HerbcoFood We enjoyed HEB when we were in Texas, but I don’t recall ever seeing that there. I thought about the cheese idea too, but figured that would be a little much & would get cooked out on a burger, even with high temp cheese. Interesting though. I have done stuffed burgers before & those always turned out good, but the cheese is in the middle there, not marbled throughout like the bacon would be. Very interesting.

                                  Chef If I could give you 12 stars, I would! That is amazing, so don’t get me started. The only reason they get away with it, like I have said before about other things, is that they find folks to pay for it. Don’t get me started!

                                      cdavis I figured grilling would even be to hot for that, mixed in that way. That is good to hear, because if you can mix it in like that & get the flavor meld, that is as good as it gets & they look great too.

                                        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.

                                          zbigjeff I learned that from my grandmother. She would never buy any ground meat because she knew what her brother did as a butcher. If she didn’t grind it, she wouldn’t eat it.

                                          I also add my mixture of steak and hamburger seasoning. Gives great flavor without too much salt.
