I have to say, I've never understood taking a good piece of meat, even if it's chopped up and putting cheese on top to cover the flavor
😍😍😍😍👍🌶
Is hamburger safe to eat at 120F?
I thought you weren’t supposed to eat burgers (or ground up meat) cooked to medium rare- only safe temperature is well done?
OMG! I have a "Ziggy" also! ❤🐶❤
Hurry up lady
Always a pleasure to watch you cook!
That's raw 🤢
Pretty sure you're supposed to cook burgers to well done to avoid salmonella.
What’s in the sauce?
Just beautiful.
Can you make the pickled red onions using Allulose? I am diabetic and try to use Allulose whenever I can.
I made that ground beef for a Memorial Day cookout, absolutely fabulous. I made a lot, turned it all into patties which freeze really well ❤
Your daughter and one of our kids must be friends…..pickles for days!
You should sell your meat mixture……or I have a September birthday!!
Looks good, however, as an Aussie, missing the beetroot. 😁
Wanted to see Ziggy eat his!
Use a panade of bread and milk, flavor with beef base, worstchester sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper, mix with ground meat just until you can't see the bread anymore, and allow to rest for an hour or up till overnight. Form into patties and cook. Moist, tender, and delicious. No need to buy waay expensive meat and dirty your food processor.
Perfection! ❤
Burger looks raw. Or maybe its my eyes
I think they look delicious 😋. I have a question. Why is it not recommended to cook pre-ground hamburger medium rare? It’s ground up beef too. I picked up ground round on sale & grilled burgers 🍔 for the 4th. I was the only one at the cookout lol. I had a light pink center. I’m still alive! Lol!
Why not you keep them in the skillet when you put them into the oven? Why transfer to a sheet pan?
Aw, shucks! I wanted to see Ziggy enjoying his burger.
This looks so delicious .
Toasted buns and no raw onions for me.
aww, we wanted to see Ziggy get his burger lol (do a "take 2" lol)
Hell! I wanna be Ziggy in that house!
Hi Julia. Nice burgers. Mine are about the same, but I always add a bit of chopped frozen butter on the meat. Ah! And cucumber relish for toping as well. Great success around here!
What about the Bison beef? Is that really the healthiest?
I wanted to see the dog eat the burger.
Julia Why don't You add 🥒 Pickleling
Spice?
Please Respond.
Sincerely Yours 🤠 Mr Severance,
"The Cake 😋🍰🎂🥳🎉 🎊 Man".
I'm excited about the prospect of grinding my own hamburger meat! Thank you for the lesson and the recipe.
Why didn't you use a meat grinder? It's a lot easier.
She looks like she calls the cops on people. Like, all the time.
no pink to make you get e. coli TYVM 🤢
So for your pickled onions one part apple cider vinegar, three parts apple juice that's it
Her
Face looks like a big juicy beef burger
I’m so glad I’m not the only one whose dog also loves burger night
What was the sauce
I don't eat pink pink meat and I was raised in cattle country still want the Moo cooked out. Want medium cooked.
What brand chef's knife is that with the cool custom looking blue/brown grip?
Lan told us that you don’t have to divot the middle though.
The original burger .. very rustic burger loooks great ❤
Excellent work. I am too glad you mentioned that one reason to grind your own, is so YOU know what's in it. No mystery meat like head meat etc. Another reason people get sick from eating burgers or ground beef is sanitation. You know yours is "clean" and you can enjoy a medium rare burger without worry. So many parts of beef, including trimming and left overs go into ground beef, and handled by many hands. Thank you for your explainations and remain safe.
This video is full of love!
