Sam's Choice 1/3lb Angus Beef Patties
What it is
These are pre-formed patties made from 100% Angus beef. Angus beef is known for its marbling, which contributes to tenderness and flavor. Each patty is a generous 1/3 pound, making them suitable for substantial burgers. They are typically found in the frozen section of the grocery store, offering convenience for quick meal preparation. The patties are ready to be cooked from frozen, saving time in the kitchen.
How people cook with it
These beef patties are a versatile base for a variety of meals, most commonly used for grilling or pan-frying.
- Classic burgers
- Sliders
- Meatloaf base
- Skillet meals
To cook, place the frozen patties directly onto a preheated grill or into a hot skillet. For grilling, cook for approximately 4-5 minutes per side over medium-high heat, or until the internal temperature reaches a safe level. In a skillet, sear the patties for about 5-6 minutes per side, adjusting heat as needed to prevent burning. Ensure they are cooked through to your desired doneness. They can be seasoned before or after cooking, depending on preference.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to ground beef, these pre-formed patties offer consistent size and thickness, leading to more even cooking. The use of Angus beef generally results in a richer, more tender texture and a deeper beef flavor than standard ground beef blends.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a convenient and flavorful option for burgers and other ground beef dishes will appreciate these patties.
How to keep the rest
Keep any unused patties frozen in their original packaging or a freezer-safe bag. For best quality, consume within the recommended timeframe on the packaging. Thawed patties should be cooked immediately and not refrozen.
