My wife and I prepare lunch once a month for our Church ladies shelter. Today was hamburgers I tried some of this technique since our church provide the ground beef. I did handle the hamburgers just as she stated and season them before I place them on the flat top grill man this make a good tasting burger. I cook them Med.Well to my surprise they did not turn out dry. Thank for that technique.
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 ❤
Thank you, Julia!
Always a pleasure to watch you cook!
I LOVE pickled red onions. Mmmmm. Beautiful burgers, Julia! I can tell that you love your dog! Even after following you for several years, I continue to learn so much from you. ✅ Thank you.

*dont give up!* skirt puts flank to shame! ya just have to treat it right.. & its not that hard. here's a foolproof method: dice 1 onion, a few cloves of garlic, salt/pepper, olive oil, juice of a lime. add it all into a ziploc with the skirts for 24 hours. now you have carne asada! YUM! after that, grilling it is the best. airfryer is also good but ya have to watch it. pan fried last option. there is _plenty_ of fat to keep it moist, tender & flavorful! i take my marinated skirt, cut the steaks in half _along_ the grain to have more manageable pieces when cutting since skirts are usually very long. dump _everything_ on the grill... beef & marinade on top. add more salt/pepper while cooking. cook it until med rare. just dont overcook. if ya wanna temp it, take it off the grill at 120 degrees F. let sit for a bit... slice _against_ the grain as thinly as possible. it cooks in minutes... just watch it. it really is not that hard to get spectacular results! it's heaven. ESPESH in my famous fajitas!. (i remember when you could get skirt basically for free from the butcher back in the day... they treated it as scraps. cut to it being VERY expensive today, but worth every penny!)

I enjoy raw red onions cut in thin slivers, a big slab of beefsteak tomato, a big slice of extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, mayo, Dijon mustard, and "hamburger dill" pickles on my burgers. Isn't it funny that, for such a "typical all-American" meal, there are as many ways to eat them as there are Americans? Ha-ha! Swiss cheese? Bleu cheese? Bacon? A thick onion ring? Sweet pickle relish? Crisp iceberg lettuce? Delicate butter lettuce? Some sturdy Romaine lettuce leaves? Yellow mustard? Spicy German mustard? butter on a toasted brioche? Onion roll?

My gramps would buy a 1/2 steer from the butcher. They would butcher the beef and rent him a storage locker. He would bring home whatever parts for my gaga to grind in the old hand-powered grinder. I also remember once using her butter churn and ice-cream maker. It took lots of stamina to get the jobs done. Grocers were much more convenient.

A little beet root juice in the pickled vinegar sauce. Whatever color they were - makes them delicious red, but also provides the beet sugars - no extra white sugar needed. Consider changing out distilled vinegar (harsh) with apple cider vinegar - that also provides malic acid, a milder vinegar potency, and a slight fruity flavor to the onions. Even putting in a small dose of sweet hoisin sauce or low sodium soy sauce for that umami flavor to the pickled onions.

The main trick is to "grind" your own meet via a bunch of small cuts or with a food processor. Even a grinder compacts it a little too much and also makes too fine of a grind. Freezer for a while + food processor is the easiest way and pretty much the best ..but you can also just semi-freeze and then dice it yourself fairly finely.. into about 1/4-1/2cm chunks The meat you start out with is the main thing, as most ground beef is made from weird cuts + extra fat added to it, rather than nice marbled cuts

You can substitute stevia or an artificial sweetener if concerned about using sugar. I'm diabetic so I get it, but I find the amount of sugar per portion is negligible. If using a sugar alternative (you could also use agave), I believe you would want to add that off the heat once the vinegar is hot, and stir until well dissolved.
