Title: Burgers
Post by: FordLover on June 15, 2010, 02:46:32 PM
Every once in a while I crave a gooooood burger.  So the little woman and I decided to make them at home last night.  Real simple - costco beef, seasoning, little bbq sauce.  Cooked mine medium, hers pretty much well done.  Sauteed some mushrooms and cooked up some hickory smoked bacon with a slab of cheddar cheese.  YUMMY!  Then some seasoned curly fries. 
It was some good grub.  My craving of a burger is cool for a while.


Tell me about your bbq-burger recipes/experiences.

Good ground beef, I also use Coscto stuff. Add some garlic powder, salt, pepper & combine. Toss in 1 small container (4OZ) crumbled bleu cheese. Cook burgers to your liking, top with bacon and a grilled shittake mushroom cap.

You simply cannot beat a Bison burger.......It is very lean and cooks stupid fast.

We put a small amount of tapioca flour in them to firm them up (my wifeepoo cannot eat any wheat products, called gluten).

Put the onions on them while they cook....Crap, now I'm drooling on the keyboard.. :banghead:

Sometimes I like to mix my ground beef 1/2 and 1/2 sausage (use a leaner beef since the sausage has lots of fat). While mixing them together, it is also a good time to put in your seasonings.

A friend told me to put some cheese inside the middle of the patty, I did and it was delicious!

Good call on putting some sort of cheese or sausage in the beef.  Tried them both a few times(not at the same time) and loved it.  But hey, can never go wrong with any form of cheese or sausage no matter what.   ;)

Also, that Costco beef in the 5lb. bag(in the tubes) is pretty damn lean.  I like that.  Not too greasy.

Couldn't agree more. I help out my girlfriends dad on his ranch whenever possible. He sells 100% grass fed angus beef and free range chickens. No antiobiotics, no hormones, and no grain. It's the absolute leanest (cow) beef you'll find. Cooks twice as fast and tastes twice as good. I actually sell this beef and chicken at the farmers market in Bakersfield every Sat. morning if any of you bako boys want to come down and try it out. I make my burgers one of two ways....minced onion and grated cheese (stick with strong cheese) mixed in with the ground beef or I whip up some home-made bbq sauce thats perfect for burgers (sorry...its a secret recipe). I only cook over wood or charcoal bbq's also!!!!
Farmergord...what shrink percentage are you seeing when you hang them 33+ days????


Title: Re: Burgers
Post by: farmergord on June 17, 2010, 04:37:31 PM
we finish ours on grain thats the only way you can hang them that long and they shrink about 20% + or -

to me there is nothing like a natuarally fed animal...and as far as a red meat category there is nothing that tops an elk....my friend when he pulls a tag which is almost every year he gives me so much elk meat, and he also gives me a nice protion of backstrap, and nothing in the world tops that...something about cutting red meat with a fork, and not requiring much for seasoning, but i wish i had access to what you guys have as far as natural raised cattle freaking amazing! and jealous at the same time
