I have a LEM burger press.
Works good for making a bunch ahead of time.
Lately just been doing the smash deal on the flat top.
I am MAGA.

I like two thinner patties instead of one thick since there are twice as many grilled surfaces that way.

That’s the way we’ve been doing them too. Something different and we really like them.

I make them about 1/3 lb. each. Once in a while I will make doubles and I make 1/4 lb. patties for that. It's tough to beat a flat top burger!!
Know fat, know flavor. No fat, no flavor.
I tried going vegan, but then realized it was a big missed steak.

You're making a mighty convincing argument for a trip up to the frozen tundra.

About.......that much in a ball. Baseball, maybe. Why would I get out the scale? Wife and oldest daughter, smaller. Gonna smash them? Smaller. Would love to watch you guys do a complex process. Like..... tying shoes!

I just make them a little larger than the bun and about 3/4" thick and I don't mash on them while cooking. I like my burgers juicy. Mine are ground deer with beef fat.

We make 3 patties out of a pound. Works for us.

Don't like big buns, hun.🤣 I always get the cheap buns just big enough to hold everything together and squish them flat after assemblage. With all that damn goodness in the middle why waste stomach space on the bread. Hamburger press makes two 1/3lb at a time.

5-6 oz. Smash them pretty thin and make them concave.
Buns- I’ve used the sandwich thins for years now. By far my favorite bun for a burger.

1/3 pounders. Easier to keep medium rare to rare. Smaller ones are harder to cook red/pink. Nothing worse than a well done burger
