Garvinque Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Has anyone heard of the Paul Newman Burger? It's has an 22% fat to meat ratio and the beef chosen is Brisket and Chuck Round! I once saw a short video of a chef from either Rhode Island or Conn make one but I thought he used three types of beef, it's been a while since I saw that so I can be wrong with my memory being with it is I thought he said he added veal also. If you have heard of or cooked one can you confirm the meat ratio with the brisket and chuck round-maybe veal? Garvin
tony b Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Found this article about Paul Newman in Food & Wine and it mentions the burger. http://www.foodandwine.com/articles/paul-newmans-next-act Quote Newman was unwavering with a few of his demands, however: He wanted casual and efficient service, a comfortable dining room and a hamburger with 22 percent fat. "I think the hamburger is the great American dish," Newman says. He and Nischan taste-tested 15 variations before settling on a custom ground-beef blend of Niman Ranch brisket and chuck round. "The burger is Paul’s gold standard," Nischan says. "It makes a statement that the restaurant is accessible. And a burger and a bottle of wine is a great combination." Found another article that says the restaurant closed in 2014. http://www.ctbites.com/home/2014/1/31/dressing-room-in-westport-closes-its-doors-after-8-years.html Can't seem to find an actual recipe anywhere? 1
