    Buy a chuck roast. Grind it up. Make burgers. They will probably be the best you've ever had.

    Had one just last night. I use a food processor.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Chuck is the only cut of beef to use for burgers. 80/20 ratio. If you can get Angus the difference is noticeable IMHO.
    Cincinnati, Ohio. Large BGE since 2011. Still learning.

    Call me weird, but my burger meat of choice is 85/15 sirloin.  I like a little lower fat content and think sirloin has better flavor.

    You can't go wrong with chuck, my preference is short ribs.
