BalconySmoken Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) I just completed a meal that I now need to pretend I enjoyed thoroughly; we have all been there I am sure. The KK has its limits: I have discovered this tonight (I didn’t expect it to perform anything here;this is all my fault and I should have predicted this). The expression sh#t burger must have come from a similar origin. you can cook or you can’t; my Wife falls into the second category but likes to try. I got caught off guard this morning when she offered to make burgers and I would grill them for her: I think I was suffering heat exhaustion or something as this is one of her “special” recipes I try to avoid like a handgrenade dipped in aids. anyway: I thought I would share: recipe: who knows what the hell she put in Aside from really expensive ground beef and pork.i am pretty sure there was some flour or some crap, they looked like chicken before they went on the grill. the buns were hand crafted by her in the oven: I have no photos of these as they turned out like soggy cardboard (I am not sure how that is even possible). the worst thing about all of this is that she made enough I have to grill tomorrow again. Don’t fall into this trap: I am in a lose lose situation but it is a good reminder to keep her out of the kitchen and away from my grill. the beers were bloody awesome though Edited February 10, 2019 by BalconySmoken 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pequod Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 My wife is in the “make your burgers with lots of mix-ins and overhandle the meat” camp as well. Mostly inspired by Food Network recipes from decades past. She enjoys it. We roll with it. For me, the perfect burger is the one I grind myself from a mix of beef cuts (or just chuck), then gently handled. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I hate to say it but those are some pretty anemic looking burgers. Suffer through it. Happy wife sometimes means miserable life 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree - chuck is good, shoulder is my favourite Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BalconySmoken Posted February 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 She doesn't read the forum, does she? I bloody hope not; I may be on the couch with the dog. Having said that, her dinner looks better than what I just had Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 Bring the temp up on the KK and put the hamburgers on and leave them there, take a walk. When you return they'll be toast....apologize and say honey I messed up, make up for it by running to the store and grabbing a couple of steaks. You could also bring them out onto the balconey and drop them over, sorry honey. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 What can I say, those burgers look seriously overworked. You are in a tough spot, keep the peace and hope it doesn't happen too often, or you have to come up with another plan. Then again if your wife reads your post ........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ribs were enough to get that across the line.
