      I have friends who make fun of me for being a “foodie” if they all saw your food posts they would understand that making your own sausage for your pasta or making your own pepperoni for your pizza doesn’t make you a foodie. It’s making 12 different types of burgers with your own brioche bun, THAT makes you a foodie!

      Jonathon LOL. I can’t help it! I was out last night until 1 am with the owners of a new Greek restaurant in town. They are chomping at the bit for me to produce an old family recipe for them. It was several hours of booze fueled, food nerd debauchery. I’m loving every minute of it!

                Going clockwise starting at the upper left we have Beef Flap, Top Round, Tri-Tip, Pork Trim, Short Ribs, Chuck Stew, House Bacon, Carne Asada and Beef Marrow in the middle. The grind was gorgeous! I threw it in the walk-in overnight to lose a little moisture and will grind again this afternoon. I’m in the ball park of 20-25% fat. I ended up with 8.1 lbs. of burger…I only need 2 of that for my reward burger. lol

                    Joe
                    Buy a full sized brisket ( 13-17 lb ) and trim off most fat cap 2 1/4-2- 1/2 lbs of the fat.
                    Don’t worry about the ratio as there is a nice vein of had fat when you cut up the brisket for the grinder. I have converted many. That told me it is the absolute best flavor. If you are a two burger person you will find that the rich meaty flavor that one burger will do you. A bonus is to add 2-3 table spoons of chopped bone per 2 lb ratio. Adds a nutty buttery flavor. Oh a 17 lb brisket should yield you roughly 32 1/3 lb burgers. With the Weston patty maker attached to a sausage stuffer.

                      Denny I just happen to have a few ‘extra’ briskets to play around with. When you refer to chopped bone…how should that be treated? That isn’t something I’m familiar with. We have bone scrapings from the band saw. Yay or nay?

                          Forgive my typing error. It should have read Bone Marrow. You can use 2-3 inch round bones. you should be able to punch out the marrow with your thumb. If not run a boning knife around the morrow. Or get a butcher shop to split a leg bone and scoop out with a spoon. Chop up with knife on a cutting board. running marrow through the grinder tends to just whip it like butter. My test batch original was a 2 lb grind. and used 2-2 1/2 TBL spoon to 2 lbls of ground burger.

                                          Tex_77 If I ever find myself in Topeka that will be a must stop! I so miss the days of the corner grocer. That feel is what we are going for at Butcher Butcher Walla Walla. We are located in a great little neighborhood downtown with great food/booze and interesting people surrounding us.
