When I want burger for patties I grind it coarse once then mix in chopped bacon and regrind. Form in patties with paper between the patties ,bag and refreeze. Pry apart frozen as many as I want and grill. Mb
Do the same but use bacon ends and pieces when I can find them. Coarse grind the BE&Ps then add and mix to coarse ground elk (with out suet) and regrind medium.
