Joe, Great video. I ground up an entire packer brisket last weekend, with my brother in laws #12 LEM. Since you said next time you were not going to run it through the fine grind plate, I ran mine through the course plate two times. I tried to make a patty after the second grind, but it did not hold together like I wanted it to, so I ran it through the course plate a 3rd time and the patties came together like I wanted. They fried up great. I use a flat top griddle, no flare ups and still a great crust on the burgers. They are kind of loose after they cook since a bunch of the fat in them melts away, but still super juicy and delicious.

Brisket makes great burgers. I think you may have had a little too much fat in the mix. Next time you grind it grind it only one time on the course setting then try to burger. Really nice voice over and tutorial. 👍🏼💪🏼🇺🇸

Thank you.. This was my first time ever grinding for burger but it's fun learning. I only grind once when doing Italian sausage and I wanted to do the same with this and should've went with my gut and did the same. My wife wanted the 2nd grind through the fine bit. I'm sure these turned out to 70/30 but I'll tell you one thing, they had great flavor. Can't wait to see your burger vid..!

Joe, first time I’ve watched one of your videos. Loved it! Subscribed. Straight to the point. No jibber jabber introduction. Enjoyed the voice over. Question: have you made ground meat since, did you use the course grind twice, if so how’d it turn out. I made the same mistake you did, not re cooling the meat, it came out mushy and the fat rendered into the meat. Wasn’t that satisfied with that. Wondered what 2x course would do??

@BBQJOE

Thanks for subscribing to my channel. I have ground twice through the coarse grind and it turned out great. But I found that grinding once through the coarse grind works out best. The burger will have great texture and your meat will stay cold longer. Here's a quick tip video on how I did it. Thanks for watching and hope this helps answer your question. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nIplurNwZLPJqqQ.html

I once made brisket burgers with 4lbs brisket with all the fat trimmed off, 2lbs pork shoulder, again fat trimmed off, and 1lbs brisket fat, and 1 package is bacon and an onion ran thru the grinder with the meat. It made like 14 1/2 lbs patties. They were absolutely delicious and I had none left over.

After watching this I bought a 16 lb brisket and ran it through my LEM #12 twice using 10mm. I got 34 burgers at 6oz each. I think it was a muiistake for me not to run through thhe 4.5 mm as they were falling apart. I think the fine grind would have worked better. Thanks for your video/

Hey BBQ Joe, I also have an LEM #12, I did not buy the LEM patty maker, because a lot of reviews said it did not pack the meat tight enough so the patties fell apart, when you were cooking them. How did your patties come out?

@BBQJOE

I think the patty marker packs them to tight in my opinion. Maybe it's how I'm using it.. The patties holds up great too. Thanks

How did it turn out next time with indirect and one grind? What tips do you recommend? I just bought the lem #8 big bite and about to buy this burger patty maker

@BBQJOE

4 жыл бұрын

Running through the coarse bit once is the way to go. Depending on the fat content of the meat you can run it through twice. The main tip is to keep the meat very cold at at all times. Be sure after you grind to put the meat in the freezer for about 20 mins before using the patty maker. When I get time I'm going to do a updated video on this. Hope this helps.

Normally I'll grill indirect then over the fire but wanted to try it out. As far as the LEM #12 goes.. No this unit is very powerful and sux that meat right down the shoot. Pretty much as fast as you can feed it. Thanks for watching..

I saw no mention of putting the meat back in the freezer between grinds? I see later that you will refreeze the meat before making the patties. I assume that it would not be important to refreeze between grinds.

Exactly. All that work to cook it Well Done.

Try adding bone marrow to your burger mix. 2 Table spoons to every 2 lbs of ground meat. Do not try and grind bone marrow. the grinder just whips the marrow. Instead on the cutting board just dice it. I will melt as you cook it. it gives the burger a buttery / nutty flavor. Just have a butcher split you a leg bone or use soup bone and just take your finger and punch out the marrow. you will be amazed the juicy flavor.

I did not clarify the bone marrow is to be mixed into the ground brisket. I have been grinding brisket for 20 years. I usually trim 2-2.5 lbs. of fat off of the brisket cap. About a heaping cereal bowl. This is more of a slimy fat. When you cut into the brisket there is a big vein of hard fat grind this. My burger grind only has just enough grease to fry the burger. Do pan fry also in a cast iron skillet and get a good sear both sides then finish to med heat.. Now the bonus of grinding your own. The big chain grocery's all use something called pink slime but received such bad reviews this labeling. The FDA relabeled pink slime as textured meat. Google it . You will never buy store bought burger again. I have the same patty maker you do. but it works better with a sausage stuffer. Lem also make another patty maker that works well with a grinder and makes a 1/4 pound patty. LEM web site. www.lemproducts.com/product/big-bite-patty-jerky-snack-stick-maker?rrec=true I have this one also.
