  • My wife and I prepare lunch once a month for our Church ladies shelter. Today was hamburgers I tried some of this technique since our church provide the ground beef. I did handle the hamburgers just as she stated and season them before I place them on the flat top grill man this make a good tasting burger. I cook them Med.Well to my surprise they did not turn out dry. Thank for that technique.

    I made that ground beef for a Memorial Day cookout, absolutely fabulous. I made a lot, turned it all into patties which freeze really well ❤

    I LOVE pickled red onions. Mmmmm. Beautiful burgers, Julia! I can tell that you love your dog! Even after following you for several years, I continue to learn so much from you. ✅ Thank you.

    Always a pleasure to watch you cook!

    I'm excited about the prospect of grinding my own hamburger meat! Thank you for the lesson and the recipe.
  • Hi Julia. Nice burgers. Mine are about the same, but I always add a bit of chopped frozen butter on the meat. Ah! And cucumber relish for toping as well. Great success around here!

    Julia’s daughter being a picky eater always cracks me up!

    I enjoy raw red onions cut in thin slivers, a big slab of beefsteak tomato, a big slice of extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, mayo, Dijon mustard, and "hamburger dill" pickles on my burgers. Isn't it funny that, for such a "typical all-American" meal, there are as many ways to eat them as there are Americans? Ha-ha! Swiss cheese? Bleu cheese? Bacon? A thick onion ring? Sweet pickle relish? Crisp iceberg lettuce? Delicate butter lettuce? Some sturdy Romaine lettuce leaves? Yellow mustard? Spicy German mustard? butter on a toasted brioche? Onion roll? On and on and on it goes.

    Great to see a medium rare and not hockey puck. :)

    Perfect video for 4th of July weekend!
  • It looked sooooo good! I’m so jealous! I will be having rotisserie chicken or a frozen healthy meal. 🥺😭😭
