I prefer the 80-20 grind myself.  I will put chopped onion inside mine, the wife doesn't like it.  She also likes her burger RARE (I don't).

The bun comment is very apt.  I like a good bun lightly toasted.  I also like a good hamburger bun.

Other items I vary depending what we have, I tend to like mayo on it, the wife does not.

Long ago I'd buy ground sirloin that really was that and they were great, I keep forgetting to ask our local butcher to grind some for us.  His steaks are pricey.

The Whole Foods near us has a dry aging unit in their butchery.  I was intrigued.  Their steaks are pretty good I think.
Inside?


That's meatloaf. :96:

I grind my own meat.
Me too. I was previously using a mix of chuck and brisket point, but my most recent grind was just chuck. We're doing burgers Sunday night, actually. 

At some point I need to make some pastrami or corned beef, just so I have an excuse to buy a giant full packer brisket and use the flat for that while using the point for burger.

Sirloin is leaner. Probably better for your wife who likes it more rare, but the 80/20 is better if you like it more cooked through. 

I found my specialty butcher's steaks, which aren't dry aged, to be superior to Whole Foods' dry aged versions, and although both are very expensive, the specialty butcher was actually cheaper than Whole Foods.

My grind has evolved over the years.

It's now equal parts short rib, inner skirt (not trimmed), flank and whatever trimmings I have left over from the whole tenderloins I get. It's about 80-20, or thereabouts.

Straight up ground ribeye is REALLY good, but you are ruining a ribeye to get a burger. Some would not approve, but I like it.

you haven't tried the dry aged?

I really enjoy it.  It's a bit different, but I like it.

I don't like ribeye cut as a steak, it's the texture, just way too fatty for me.  And it's not like that fat renders like it does on a slow-cooked cut.

So for me, ribeye actually works much better as a burger.

ribeye falls behind, strip, t-bone/porterhouse, fillet, and above average sirloin

but, there are other things that can make perfectly good burger

Fazoli’s is an Italian/American fast-casual restaurant chain.

GM, Krissie Schroeder say, “Fazoli’s pasta and sauces, breadsticks and salads are freshly prepared throughout the day. Our food isn’t ‘fast food.’ It’s fast, fresh, Italian!”


coming in early 2021 to an abandoned Pizza hut building near my golf course

is it worth trying or just chain food crap?  Do they serve beer?

I lived near one in Rochester. It's not bad, okay if you're in a hurry. They're going to send you a lot of coupons.

Fazoli's is no worse than Olive Garden, whatever that might mean for you.
