Just an Average Burger

Recommended Posts

Daughter wanted to bring her new boyfriend, Mr. Hurley, home to meet the family. I was ecstatic to meet him once I learned he's in Army ROTC and happens to be quite muscular. Hellllooooo moving crew for a future 32" KK. Time to roll out the red carpet to woo my future mover. 

We started last night by mixing up a batch of Brioche for hamburger buns. Here it is being kneaded in slo-mo, just because:

After an overnight bulk ferment in the refrigerator:

And trying out my new hamburger bun mold pan:

The KK is ready and looking pretty:

After 25 minutes, the buns are ready:

Now let's grind up the burgers, a 50-50 blend of ribeye lip and brisket:

Some of that bacon I cured and smoked recently:

Now the burgers. I like some char, so I start the burgers on the outsideIMG_1701.JPG

Then flip them onto the CI griddle:

Cheese 'em:

Plate 'em:

I think Hurley's onboard for moving my next KK.

Recently picked up that pan just for these buns, which are awesome. Hard to go back to store bought once you've had these. I had been making ring molds out of aluminum foil, but that's a pain. This pan worked great, although I think I can crank the temp a bit higher next time to get a bit more browning.
