Btw.1I bought the meat just 2 days ago on sale.
Btw.2 The seller gutted the fish before serving me (but rinsed his hands under running water)

    WAY too raw in the middle for me. The texture and coldness skeevs me out. And that’s coming from someone who eats a piece of their steak before they cook it.

    Outside of maybe just a tad bit longer for the meat (I like medium-rare personally) I would fuck up the burger for sure and it looks much better than a majority of the burgers that get posted on here, imo.

    Cheers

    Burger needs to be cooked more lol. Heat was too high.

  4. That level of pinkness would be okay for freshly ground, but not for a pre-made patty

    Great looking Burger for sure! I like my hamburger pink, but that’s just a tad too pink for me.

    What cheese slices do you use btw? Quite hard to find decent ones here in UK.

    These are always controversial posts due to doneness. Pic 2 looks fantastic but pic3 is where the debate begins.

    Burger needs to be cooked a little bit more, but it still looks good!

    I can’t see the meat so it is hard to tell if I think that you are doing it right

    This looks like medium to me and that’s fine if it’s your preference, I just wouldn’t do this with two day old on sale meat. You want to grind meat yourself or get it fresh from a good butcher and use it that day.

    2-4 more minutes you probably have it.

    Maaaaan, everything looked so good until picture 3 lol

    way uncooked, there shouldn’t be pink goo in there like that. the rest looks great, but that middle kills it

  14. bdubwilliams22

    Everything looks great, except the beef. Gotta cook longer.

    Good job but the tomatoes make me nervous

    Is it dry aged like the sign says? Definitely does not look like ground beef. It is coarsely ground beef, looks like tartar. If it aged it will be pink like that. No the heat was not too high, could have been higher. I cook smash burgers on high heat, the cook really fast. Caramelize on first side flip it over caramelize the other side done. Medium rare on the inside caramelize on the outsideYou didn’t brown all the edges to seal in the juices. Bring it to the edge of the pan to brown the edges.

    Mate, this is how you get sick. You should not use commercial minced meat when cooking anything other than well-done. The meat processors producing this are absolutely _not_ sterile. I’m not saying they’re filthy, but they produce these patties with the expectation that you will be fully cooking them to kill the harmful bacteria which inevitably exists in all commercial minced meat. Basically, you’re risking severe food poisoning for very little benefit. If you’re gonna cook medium or rare you should use fresh, whole cuts, trim them and mince them yourself.

    (Now I’ll just sit back and wait for the experts to rush to the comments to tell me how they’ve been eating raw mince straight out of the packet every day for decades and that’s how they’re still on Reddit at 137 years old.)

    Definitely cross contamination b/t raw fish and beef. The burgers were in a plastic bag. But he handed the bag to you with raw fish hands.😡

    To convert for us Americans – that’s about $1.63 for a 6 oz patty. That’s not too shabby.

    Usually a cook the meat before I make the burger but to each their own

  21. tausendmalduff

    Ignore the naysayers. That burger looks so good it could be American

    Looks beautiful but a little too rare for me.
