How do you prepare the perfect burger patty?

My butcher makes my burgers for me. You can get them fresh or fr**en (no flames please). Of course I buy them fresh when I can. I usually call and ask when they will have them fresh. Always important to have a good relationship with your butcher.

Anyhow, they use 75/25 black angus chuck for the ones I like the best. A little salt and pepper, cooked to mid-rare. Done.

Both of these points are soooo true. Almost falling apart when you flip them is best IMO

Alright Steve, I must ask...who's your butcher? If he's quasi-close I may have to check him out!

Joe Butcher shop in Vineland. Quite a distance from you, but maybe worth a trip. Another good one is Bringhurst in Tansboro (just south of Atco).
