Not my recipe, just modified from somebody else. Took 2 lbs. of 93% lean ground chuck. Mixed chopped oinions and my favorite BBQ sauce with the ground chuck. Great tasting and good on the nose for smell. Had to add Dizzy Dust just to try something else.[p]CWM

    CWM:[p]Three weeks ago I had the absolute best burgers I have had in all my years on this earth . . .[p]I purchase all my rib eyes whole and cut them myself. Normally, for the sake of time I just cut them to the desired thickness and FoodSave. This time I purchased four whole rib eyes, cut for thickness then trimmed them as would a market. I trimmed the trimmings of all the lean meat with just a little fat left attached and then ran it through the grinder.[p]The result was an exceptionally flavorful burger that surpassed any that I have ever tasted before. There is a place close by that occasionally sells lesser quality rib eyes for $2.99/lb. and I am thinking that ground those rib eyes would make excellent burgers . . . Yeah, expensive burgers, but very much worth the cost.

    djm5x9,[p]Let's see.... A Mickey D's Quarter pounder is a buck something and it would take 4 of them (or more) to make a pounder and that would come to over $4 per pound....[p]Hey, in my book $2.99 per pound for a "good" burger sounds like a bargin and not expensive at all.[p]I do like that food saver thingie too. Comes in handy for so many tasks.
