How people cook with it
These frozen patties are ideal for a quick and satisfying meal. They can be cooked in various ways to suit your preference.
- Quick weeknight dinner
- Backyard grilling
- Party appetizer
- Lunchbox addition
To cook, remove the patties from their packaging. They can be pan-fried on a stovetop over medium heat for about 4-6 minutes per side, or grilled outdoors until thoroughly heated and browned. For oven preparation, place them on a baking sheet and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Ensure the patties reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety. Serve on a bun with your favorite toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh burger patties, these are pre-cooked and frozen, significantly reducing preparation time. The inclusion of bacon and cheese within the patty offers a distinct flavor profile that is consistent with every bite, unlike adding toppings separately. This integration ensures the flavors meld during the cooking process.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a convenient way to enjoy a cheeseburger without the extensive prep work.
How to keep the rest
Keep these patties frozen in their original packaging until ready to use. Once thawed, they should not be refrozen. Store any unused portion in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
