- Serving with sides
To cook, simply place the frozen patties on a preheated grill or in a hot skillet. Cook for several minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches a safe level and the juices run clear. You can add your favorite seasonings or sauces during or after cooking. They are excellent served on buns with your preferred toppings, or crumbled into sauces and casseroles for added richness. Ensure they are cooked thoroughly before serving.
