How people cook with it
Burger patties are a convenient base for a variety of meals. They are most commonly used for making classic hamburgers.
- Grilling burgers
- Pan-frying patties

- Serving with sides
To cook, place the frozen or thawed patties on a preheated grill or in a hot skillet. Cook for several minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches a safe level and the exterior is browned. Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking, as this can release valuable juices and affect the texture. They can be seasoned further before or after cooking to suit your taste preferences.

How to keep the rest
Keep any unused patties frozen until ready to cook. Once thawed, they should be cooked within one to two days and stored in the refrigerator. Ensure they are kept in a sealed container or wrapped tightly to maintain freshness and prevent freezer burn.
