Picky Eaters Paradise

Hello fellow picky eaters, Its Owen here! This week I kept the foods that I made simple because the food i have been making have been out of the ordinary. From squirrel to pigeon, I have been getting a little funky on the picky eating terms. Today, I remade my smash burgers that I previously made. However, I am going to give my thoughts on how it went and what I did wrong and what could've gone better.

 So, as I just explained, i remade my smash burgers. This week i was a little disappointed to say the least because of the final product. The burgers were very good of course. However, they were on the dryer side just because I tried to cook them longer than usual. The buns I chose were not ideal and weren't a good partner when placed with the 85 lean 15 fat ground beef I used. (Recommended 80 lean 20 fat). 

Steps for the burgers:
  • Get ground beef. (80% lean 20% fat)
  • Divide and make into balls. (Around the size of a lemon)
  • Heat a pan on high heat.
  • Drop the ball of meat onto the hot pan. 
  • With a spatula or pan wrapped in tin foil, smash the burgers to a thin patty.
  • Cover one side with salt and pepper. (Only one side needs to be seasoned)
  • Smash once more if the meat shrinks up too thick.
  • Let it cook until the edges begin to brown.
  • Then flip.
  • Thirty seconds later or when the sizzling slows slightly, add a slice of cheese to the top. (Single yellow slices do the trick)
  • Wait for the cheese to melt to the patty and pull it from the pan. 
  • (If you want to go the extra mile you can toast your buns in the grease of the burger to warm and crispy up the buns)
  • Add your condiments of choice.
  • Then enjoy your newest creation.
