Boyers Best 80% Lean Hamburger Patties
What it is
These are pre-formed hamburger patties made from 80% lean ground beef. They are designed for convenience, offering a quick way to prepare burgers at home. The patties are typically frozen to maintain freshness and allow for easy storage. Each patty is a consistent size and thickness, ensuring even cooking. The 80% lean designation means the beef has a good balance of meat and fat, which contributes to flavor and juiciness when cooked.
How people cook with it
Hamburger patties are a versatile ingredient for quick meals. They are perfect for grilling, pan-frying, or baking.
- Classic burgers
- Sandwiches
- Casseroles
- Salads
To cook, place the frozen patties on a preheated grill, griddle, or frying pan. Cook for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches a safe level and the patties are browned. Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking, as this can release their juices and make them dry. You can season them before or after cooking with salt, pepper, or your favorite burger seasonings. Serve on buns with your preferred toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to 90% lean patties, the 80% lean content provides more fat. This extra fat renders during cooking, adding moisture and a richer flavor to the finished burger. Patties with higher fat content tend to be more forgiving and less prone to drying out.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a convenient and flavorful option for weeknight dinners or backyard barbecues.
How to keep the rest
Keep the remaining patties frozen in their original packaging. For best quality, use within the recommended timeframe. Once thawed, do not refreeze. Store any cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
