huge fresh fruit/veg market right near home = winning

[ssxRicho]

burgers at home are just as quick and easy if you are prepared.

I buy all my fresh fruit, veggies and such from the market for the week and then get 2 weeks worth of meat from Tasman.

I always buy a bulk pack of premium mince and prep it for burgers.

I also go to Breadtop and buy 4-5 packets of savory rolls at a time and throw the packs in the freezer.

These are the absolute last word in awesome home burger buns and aren't even a little bit effected by the freezing process, just in the bags they already come in. they are small though, so you need to eat 2-4 each

The good thing about Tasman is that the way they pack their mince is directly from the mincer to the pack, so all the meat strands (and hence protien strands) are aligned and when not mixed up make unbeleiveable burger patties.

I get the mince and lay the strands (all facing the same way) on gladwrap to be a little bigger than the size of the buns and roll the shit up nice and tight to get a perfect pattie shape but with all the strands facing the same way. using a LOT of gladwrap.... a LOT

make a few logs and throw them all in the freezer too.

this process take like 5 mins at most.

To cook them, just remove from the freezer and once thawed enough cut into thick pattie slices (with the gladwrap still on and using a SHARP knife) and lay on bench to thaw properly and at room temp (doesn't take long after sliced)

heat a thick pan or the BBQ until red hot, salt the meat heavily with sea salt flakes and cook (still with the gladwrap on)

as soon as the gladwrap gets near the heat it shrinks and doesn't actually hit the heat and melt, cook one side, turn over and remove the gladwrap.

cook until still medium... and you have the most awesome burger pattie imaginable

Then I always ensure I have a pack of bega super slices in the fridge at all times (epic American burger style cheese) and can have burgers with minimal notice at any time.

the rest I change up based on what I feel like...

Googling nearest Tasman. Doing this next weekend.

Googling nearest Tasman. Doing this next weekend.

remember to make sure the meat is all facing the same way and maybe a diameter of 1 cm BIGGER than the bun (will shrink when coooked) and to wrap it nice and evenly with a lot of clingwrap

also having an industrial sized 600m roll of clingwrap helps

Mmhmmm... this IS a tasty burger

You mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down?

A friend of mine was a Mi Goreng regular back in the day, then went off it for ages.

returned a year or so later to it and couldnt believe he used to eat the stuff.

Maccas is in the same boat. i feel ill after a burger so will stick to the icecreams.

government should impose a tax on mcdonalds (or even just big brand fast foods) like cigarettes or something.

[Birds]

Sucks to be you lot; I enjoy my $8 salt meal prepared in 3 minutes. Always hits the spot as an alternative to a greasy ass kebab or souvlaki. It's a frikken burger, why get snobby and hipster over it. Meat, cheese, bun, other shit.
