What % of ground beef?

[perryranch]

We get what ever lowest fat is. I wanna say it's the 90/10 but don't hold me to that. I just tell the processing plant I want the lowest fat ratio. We don't eat much hamburger meat though. I have most of it made into patties ( I believe there are 1/3 pounders) and the boys and FIL either fry them or cook on a george foreman type thing. I can't vouch for theirs but mine and DH are never dry, but we like ours a little pink.

My secrets:
- Grind yer own. Who knows what those folks behind that counter did to that burger meat?
- Start with chuck and use bacon or fatback or hogjowl to up the fat content to AT LEAST 20%.
- Handle the meat as little as possible and keep it cool. FOLD the seasonings in using a spatula.
- GENTLY shape the patties and dimple their middles so that they cook up flat.
- flip ONCE.
