Cheese thru a grinder

[rugerbear]

I was going to make up some hamburgers with cheese in the patty. I use a grinder with the stuffing plate and a LEM patty maker on the end. Is there any problem running the meat and cheese mixture thru the grinder into the patty maker?

rugerbear. Depends on the cheese you r useing a soft cheese doesn’t work needed like cheddar

Make sure your cheese is cold - in fact I partially freeze mine when I do that. Usually when I’m out of the hi-temp.

Might grind your burger, then temp it down, mix in the cheese and put on your plate with the largest holes to run the mixture through

I did as suggested. Had cheese cold. Here is what I made:
Bacon-Green Chile CheeseBurger Patties.
6# 85/15 ground beef
1# bacon ends & pieces
1 pkg Waltons bacon patty mix
1.75 ozs Waltons Hatch Green Chile Brat mix
1/2# high temp cheddar cheese
First grind with 10mm plate.
Mix in seasoning and grind again to mix well with 4.5mm plate.
Mix in cheese by hand.
Run thru Patty Maker.
Makes about 19 1/3# patties.

Cooked a small patty before adding cheese. It was delicious. Wife didn’t seem to want to share.

Momma no like? OR, Momma wants it all?

She said she had to have several bites to make a decision. I think she liked it. Going to put a couple on grill tomorrow night. Looking forward to it.
