Ribeye burgers
Stocked up on some ribeyes on sale at Publix this week and figured I would grind one up and give it another go. I remember reading a post where someone here used ribeye for burgers. I'm glad I tried it. Best burgers I've ever done personally, enough left to do a couple for lunch tomorrow.
Still partially frozen, cut into 1" cubes
First grind
Problem I've had in the past is that the grind seemed a bit too "chunky", so I ran it through again
Loosely formed patties, 5-6 oz., on at 500* slightly raised direct, 3 mins/ side
Went a little past where I had planned, but still a tinge of pink, and very juicy flavorful, not dry at all

Try grinding a 50/50 blend of beef brisket and sirloin, I do angus brisket from Sams club and prime Ssirloin from Costo.. Makes the best burgers I have ever had

Wow, can't wait to get a grinder

I am sure the burger were great but not sure that I wouldn't cry when grinding a ribeye .Gerhard
-
I must try, looks great. Now what time was dinner?
-
And safe to cook rare!

Just a tad off topic here, but is that FGA grinder for KA plastic? I see the inside screw or pusher is also plastic. HAs anyone broken theirs?

The screw is plastic with a metal bar inside it. The blade and the thing with the holes are metal. I ground up about 4 lbs last night with no problems at all.

Looks tasty. Just not sure if I want to pay that much per lb for a burger. Is it worth cost?Boom

Personally, I cannot WAIT to grind up some super good meat for burgers,
I have a question though in concern for my "better half".She is somewhat specific in the % of fat in burger meat....is there ANY way of predicting what one might end up with when grinding different meats? Even ball park?
Guessing probably not, unless one has ground up thousands of lbs of meat, and compared (?) it to store bought stuff know percentages...
Did that make sense? :>) Regardless, I'll be grinding soon!
