I'd forgotten that some folks make up burger patties this way. My mom
and grandmother both used to. I always like them a lot!
I don't grind my own meat (some folks here will be aghast), but buy it
lean from the butcher, like you. From there I make patties and freeze.
I thaw partially and season both surfaces before grilling.
