need a hamburger recpie , im lookin @ u vwls
 

stuff i got

1 lb lean ground chuck
fresh peppers - red, green, yellow
lots of white onion
pedestrian spice rack
olive oil, vege oil

vwls you got a go-to burger recipe? i obv never make burgers at home
\
also should note i have a foreman grill but i was plannin on using my iron skillet

iron skillet is hecak better because then you can fry it
fat tastes better than no fat

Cook that shit in the skillet, with a little olive oil and grill those onions. All you need. Add provolone, cheddar, or american or all three.

i never buy american cheese though it is pretty good on a burger i must admit
even though i have no idea wtf american cheese is comprised of
tho i do currently have pepper jack, colby jack, baby swiss, munster, provolone, and sharp cheddar hanging out in the dairy drawer

def love grillin the onions, but i also like a little diced green pepper in the burger too

also got a half pound of really good fucking bacon from the same place i got the chuck at, so i guess i should have mentioned that. BACON IN THE HOUSE

then obviously make the bacon and then hecak fry that burger in the bacon fat
USA USA USA

Then this is a no brainer. Grill those onions, provolone, bacon, little mayo, some baby spinach for color. What's there to talk about? And Jim is correct, fry the burger in the leftover bacon grease. Jim. Oh Jim. I like how you think.

and then save the bacon grease and use it to fry everything you eat

Save that bacon grease and make country gravy tomorrow for breakfast.

you missed the part where i said i never make burgers
i have made 100x more steaks than hamburgers

do have the green spinach, dont have any tomatoes tho which i do enjoy on a burger
will probably go with some mustard ketchup maybe some jalapeno on top

with the onion should i dice it up before i grill it or just cut it in rings or w/e
my knife skills are lacking

sriracha

vwls should be here soon

fuck the ketchup, just get this:

mix in some garlic/other spices with mutilated moocow before cooking it in the bacon grease. also you should make sure to use the pepper jack no matter what, if you use that mustard.

what kind of bun are you using? this is a key element that is often overlooked. i would brown the buns in the pan after dumping out bacon grease - obv some will still be coating the pan and will make the bun (pretzel roll, preferably) god.

i would also sautee the onions and maybe some white mushrooms in olive oil w/garlic to put on the burger.

i don't want you talking to this man adrian

i hve white mushrooms, skipped on the galric, knew i would regret it

i just have generic sesame seed buns, i dont teven think i have seen pretzel rolls where i live

ive never seen that mustard either, i do have some dope ass german style spicy hot ,and some grey poupon, and of course yellow mustard which i never use

get a meat grinder and grind your own meat
then line up the strands of meat so it will fall apart in your mouth
that is the way food geeks do it

man i really wanna find some pretzel rolls now, sfgerman

you could also go with a brioche bun if you can get it.

oh shit yeah nexzt time i will if i cant find the pretzel
def saw some brioche buns

you shut up adrian

Harley:

george is god, bbq is demi god

get real bro all smart peple know that cooking a hamburger on a flat surface allows all the fat and good shit to cook the meat on a fucking "bbq" the fat drips off
get a clue moron

we dont all have our moms to clean up after us jim

yours cleans up after me kid

second do a blend get some ground chuck ground shortrib ground beef butchers will blend it for you just pick out the meat

ive messed around with seasoning the meat itself and then season it when you sear it, i dont really see a difference, just dont make them too thick and make it medium rare, i dont make alot of burgers but maybe a malibu type seasoning with pepper and garlic could be pretty good on top of it as it cooks

a thankless task

ive also added a lil worcestshire sauce and mustard powder to the ground beef its okay

however we all have thrown your mom a towel to clean up with after we were done with her

ate too many snyders mini pretzel sandwiches burger gonna have to wait til tomorrow

almost feel nauseous gonna have to smoke weed to alleviate my stomache

vwls still has time to help make my burger amazing

Am I too late? Sorry if I didn't get here in time. Just got home from Cali.

For the future though, here are a few burger jewels:

1) If you're feeling gourmet, try going to the butcher and having him grind the hamburger meat for you fresh from good steak.

2) If that's too expensive, buy course ground, fatty hamburger meat. Like 85% is good. It makes them juicier, and honestly, you're eating burgers. Who cares about saturated fat. You want it to burst when you bite it. With the fat content correct, you can grill without ending up with dry patties.

3) Try making the patties thick and stuffing the middle with chopped jalapenos and onions. SFgood.

4) Make sure not to handle the meat too much - it makes them tough.

5) If you don't want to stuff them, definitely sauté some onions in olive oil with salt, pepper and a touch of fresh garlic. You can lay those onions on top before serving. I also like to fry sliced mushrooms in with the onions sometimes.

6) Avoid the urge to press the burgers while you're cooking them - it forces the juice out.

7) If you're going to melt cheese on top, use good quality cheese, not the fake shit. The better the cheese, the more intense the burger experience. There were some good cheese suggestions in this thread... all except for the "American cheese" comment. The only thing "American cheese" is good for is... well... there isn't anything. There's just nothing that can't be made better with real cheese. Also try blue cheese burgers for a change of pace.

Other tips:

- Season the meat before cooking. It's about 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper for every pound of burger. I like garlic in mine as well. Avoid other seasonings especially that horrible product "Lawry's Seasoning Salt." Ugh.
- Turn them once only, just like with steak. - Never overcook. Similar to a steak, if you cook it too long, it's ruined. You can poke it with your finger to see where it's at... obv the meat becomes firmer as it cooks.
- If you're frying, cook on medium high heat.

Other than that, go crazy and be creative. There are hundreds of combinations to try with burgers.

first dee snyder helps jon rich make an amazing 7 up commercial

then he starts an amazing pretzel company

guy is fucking remarkable

My post has no formatting and there's no edit button? WTF?

?

edit is next to quote

b alker you ar ereally dropping the ball here, losing the edit buttons and shit

Hmm - I can see the edit button in IE but not in Firefox. Might have to check Adblock. Sometimes it has a mind of its own.

awesome tips vwls , im gonna stuff the fuck out of that burger tmrw

and when it comes to cheese i use sargentos or sometimes i buy a nice block of low moisture cheddar

Also if you want to step outside the box, there are some really cool flavors you can use from unexpected sources.

Mix some minced garlic, fresh lime and chopped cilantro into mayonnaise - boom - homemade aioli. OR... grind up a few green peppercorns, finely chopped shallots and about a teaspoon of fresh thyme into some whole-grain mustard. Slather that on top of the burger before serving.

What are you serving the burgers with BTW? I am craving a burger now.

i cant really cook at all so dont get excited
probably bake some frozen onion rings cuz i love onion rings
im guessing you would make some ridiculous redskin mashed potatoes something of that nature

Actually, I love onion rings with a burger... I usually make mine from scratch but there's nothing wrong with the frozen ones. Fries sound good too.

lol @ hed1 tag

yeah i am way too lazy to make batter and hand dip onion rings

i dont have a deep either tho

burger turned out perfect medium well juicy as fuck
ruined the onions, better luck next time
forgot about the bacon
toasted sesame bun->burger w melted sharp cheddar and pepperjack->sauteed mushrooms->ketchup and sweet hot mustard->baby spinach->lunch success
thanks to vwls for your infinite hamburger wisdom, god willing i will never make another dried out shitty burger again
