Food Thread:The Hamburger: Are You For Them Or Against Them?
I have done the heavy lifting and have read this incredible drivel so you don't have to, unless you feel like being irritated (or entertained) by a dozen paragraphs of ridiculous extrapolation, nonsensical guessing and pure climate change hysteria. The hamburger is an American staple: Climate change threatens it in profound and subtle ways
It's a mass of illogical and baseless supposition, with one goal in mind...to convince the ignorant and the disinterested that climate change is inevitable and that we must act now! That they use the all-American food...the lovely and innocent hamburger as one of the evils of man's insatiable thirst for the destruction of poor defenseless Gaia is pure manipulation. Go forth and eat burgers!
The Barefoot Contessa Tuscan Lemon Chicken I mentioned in last week's Food Thread was good, although I didn't like it as much as some others at Chez Dildo who don't have sufficiently evolved culinary taste and really should just sit down and let me cook. The marinade has a lot of lemon juice, which I think changed the consistency of the chicken a bit too much. And weighing down the chicken on the grill is intended to get as much contact as possible with the grill itself and aid in browning. Otherwise known as chicken-under-brick. Sure, it works, but flattening the spatchcocked chicken as much as possible beforehand will do pretty much the same thing and is easier. And the pan sitting on top of the chicken keeps too much moisture in the skin, so it doesn't get crispy. But the marinade added some nice flavor, so I will probably use it, or a variation with less lemon juice when I make chicken.
This is Misanthropic Humanitarian's favorite cake, so if he shows up at a MoMe be sure to make one for him. Bologna Cake seems like a throwback to the 1950s or 1960s, which is a bit early for MisHum, based on his Zappa infatuation.
Commenter (lurker) "Huey Echo" is showing off again. I might have to move to East Texas just so I can steal stuff from Huey's garden. And larder.
Not only does Huey grow and make some wonderful looking food, those photos are good! Certainly better than mine.
Creamed Veggie Filled Pancakes With Canned Peach Garnish
Romaine lettuce that is green, instead of the white crap they sell that has never seen a photon, pork rib roasts from the front end of the pig where all the good and fatty meat lives, carrots that don't taste like stalky chalk, spare bottles of Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old Bourbon, an herb garden that actually produces herbs (but no basil!), well-marbled NY strip steaks and elk backstrap to: cbd dot aoshq at gmail dot com. And don't think that you are off the hook with maple syrup and French Toast: I'm watching you...all of you! And I am watching you perverts who shake Manhattans and keeping a list for the Burning Times.

If there's no effort, just get some chopped sweet onion, hamburger pickles, ketchup and mustard OR mayo (not both) and the cheapest pack of Aldi's hamburger buns and have the equivalent of the Mcdonald's burger.
If you want effort, make bacon, caramelize onions, get green leaf or butter leaf lettuce, pretty tomatoes, pickles and go for the 3 fer (ketchup/mustard/mayo) on a nice bun.
Cheese optional - my kids will be any cheese. Back in the day, I loved a black and blue burger (bacon and blue cheese)...but those days are past.

In poboy land where I live, the best way to order one is 'dressed and pressed'. Dressed means with lettuce tomato and pickles, and pressed means lightly fried with an oil (mayo) at high heat for a minute or so using a spatula to flatten it. Yum.

No, the best burgers involve pressing a thumb down the center before laying them down to cook...and then only going to medium.
Smash burgers, by definition, are pretty much always cooked well done and the idea is to get the most surface area for char/crispy outside-ness (if in a pan)...

I don't think it's "protocol" to smash grilled burgers due to loss of moisture as well as the risk of pushing meat through the tines of the grill onto the fire/coals. For flattop burgers, I think smashing is used more to get the caramelization on both sides of the meat. Note: this is my "thinking", I have no idea if this is true.

Get some ground chuck, 80/20, that is NOT SMUSHED TOGETHER. I have found non-smushed ground chuck at a Kroger-affiliated meat counter and also at Braum's.
Delicately separate the strands and form patties by criss-crossing the strands and pressing just enough to keep them from falling apart. Make the perimeter a bit thicker than the middle.
Plop the patties over a hot fire on the grill and salt and pepper the tops. As soon as the bottoms brown, turn the patties, salt and pepper them, and top with Monterrey Jack or Muenster cheese. The cheese will melt in the time it takes to finish cooking the other side.
I can't tell you what is the best thing to do next because at this point, Grillmaster Bassman and I devour a couple of patties each, sometimes with ketchup, mustard, or A-1 and a side of grilled veggies.

I loved cheese - but you'll be amazed the foods you can find when you can't have cheese anymore!
Posted by: Nova local at May 29, 2022 04:25 PM (exHjb)
I've adapted pretty well over the years, but I really miss cheese and yogurt. The fake (cheese) stuff is usually made with soy, to which I am also allergic, and I'm starting to have trouble with nut milks, so that rules out coconut yogurt.
And Huey, I keep scrolling past that pile of bread, and I want to reach into the computer and grab one. They look amazing!

The best "cheese sauce" I've ever made mimics a light alfredo with olive oil, flour (into a semi-roux), garlic, rice milk, acres of nutritional yeast and salt, pepper, and any Italian herbs you like.
If you always thought alfredo was too heavy, but liked something lighter, this will remind you of that cheese sauce, and can be used in lasagna (as a bechamel for a very loose version) or on top of pasta with sauteed greens (I always like greens with alfredo) and a preferred protein. You can also add a little vegan butter to the sauce to up the fat and butteriness.

Nope, it's more the texture of powdered parm meets the "deli" shredded parm. It's just nutritional yeast - it's what vegans use so they don't die of malnutrition b/c it is a nutritional powerhouse...and being a yeast, it has that "something" that cheese tends to deliver, but it has it without the salt and dairy cheese has (thus, why it's not as good as parm, but in a sauce when you add that salt in and something close to dairy, you can get it close)...

- 2 large yellow onions, cut up
- 1 stick butter
- 2 lbs of tilapia filets
- 1 lb of scallops
- 1 bunch of fresh green onions, diced
- 1 box of mushrooms.
- plenty of salt, pepper, and Tony Chachere's seasoning.
- some cloves of chopped garlic
baked for about 40 minutes at 375 and it was wonderful. You see I didn't really put any fluid in it, but enough fluid bakes out of the ingredient to make it more of a stew than anything else.

Iron Skillet, max heat. Let it get super hot. Solid, stiff metal spatula. Bigger is better.
A small handful of 85/15 ground beef. Don't pat it out, just drop it in the hot pan, and Hulk Smash. Really, smash it flat, flat, super flat.
Cover until it starts to cook all the way through to the top.
Flip it. Add cheese. Quickly. (I usually melt the cheese on these in the microwave).
Delicious and very thin and crispy hamburger. My favorite.

Burgers New Dawn. H.E.B. 90 % sirloin, 1 lb., divide into two patties. Blend seasonings in by folding/tearing apart/folding a few times, forming into a loosely rolled "ball" and re-pressing into a patty. Pronounced dimple in the middle.
Skillet, 1/4 lb. unsalted butter, and turn frequently. Keep those juices IN the burger, not flowing out. 1 min. before finish, splash of beer, wait 30 sec., flip, add cheese. Nice, crusty burger, absolutely bursting with juicy goodness.
Toasted Crustini buns, lightly buttered, mayo, serve & eat. Yum!

Now I like two patties, charred on the outside but just on the rare side of raw on the inside. (Cast iron is our friend.) Between the patties go slices of aged swiss and a layer of roasted onions. The roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the onions and contrasts nicely with the swiss. Salt and pepper. No condiments that get in the way of the beef flavor. These carb-concious days I might skip the bun or just do an open face on potato bread. Anyway, if done right, it's too juicy to pick up easily. Mrs. JTB's bread and butter pickles on the side and corn on the cob dripping with butter.

This morning Miss Linda and I drove out to the Cracker Barrel in the eastern exurbs for breakfast. As always, the food is good, though it's a little startling to read the menu description of, say, the Smokehouse Breakfast, and then have it appear on a plate much too big for it. To be fair, the biscuits that are part of it come on their own plate with the gravy and butter.
Usually I pick up a pound of salmon filets at Walmart in the frozen aisle, 4 filets for (now) about $6. The store was out of that, and I didn't want to spend $11 or more for 2 lbs. I settled for a packet of 2 smoky barbecue salmon filets, under $8. I'll try one tonight. Plus I have ground beef, chimichangas and burritos (frozen type, but they can be enhanced with cheese and seasoning), and a couple of pot pies.

And swai was perfect for the herb sauce (15 minutes at 350 for 2.5lbs of swai, coated in the sauce and topped with the tomato) - it let the sauce just shine. I ended up dicing the tomato after deseeding it so everything wouldn't get to wet, and the little tomato chunks were perfect with it.

Skin and bone adds flavor, it's cheaper, and it is easier to cook without worrying about overcooking. That fat and skin protects the meat and keeps it juicy.

My local chain grocery I think still carries the Santa Fe green chile mix and the red sauce mix -- a company in Taos sells them. The green chiles are quite hot, as in super spicy. If I use them I'll need to have some chocolate or honey afterward. The red is not so flaming hot.

Ah, CBD. You disappoint me.
Mayo has about as much business on a hamburger as does Welch's Grape Jelly.
It's mustard. And ketchup if you must.
Grilled onions? Eh, they're okay. A nice thin slice of raw purple onion is a much better companion for your burger.

Ah, CBD. You disappoint me.
Mayo has about as much business on a hamburger as does Welch's Grape Jelly.
It's mustard. And ketchup if you must.
Grilled onions? Eh, they're okay. A nice thin slice of raw purple onion is a much better companion for your burger.

Once I couldn't have cheese and lost that fat, I moved on to adding it back with bacon, mayo and/or avocado/guacamole.
It's not so much having the mayo to taste the mayo...it's to have that mouthfeel for the cheese that's no longer there. Which is why I almost always have bacon b/c it replaces the salt and fat of the cheese...

for me, it's always worked to just really knead the ground beef into a very cohesive ball (this is when I add spices) and do it until it really sticks together. Then I just flatten the ball into a patty.

You have to read the label on those things with an eagle eye. Lots of them are crammed full of soy.
The ones that are labeled "100% beef" at least come from some part of a cow. Maybe not the best part, or a part that you would eat if you saw what it looked like before it was ground up, but *some part*.

No binder needed.
Either make the patty bigger and flatter than you want, or put a "dimple" in the middle of it with your thumb. Without the dimple, it will pull itself into a thicker patty with less diameter as it cooks. Hamburgers wanna be meatballs for some reason.

Retail, that is. (they're nearly as good as mine, and that's saying something!)
The Shark Shack, intersection of Strand & 24th St. OMG, wow, they're perfectly seasoned, they cook 'em *exactly* to order (done-ness), and the fries, are without a doubt, the best in Texas, not just best on the island. Perfectly stacked, presented and served, and the portions are in a word, generous.
Then, go diagonally across the same intersection to LaKing's Confections, and order their chocolate milkshake. Best you'll have in this life, period. How can I say that? Well, they make the ice cream that goes into that shake, right there on site, along with all the other "from scratch" confections. They're every bit as good as the Swiss. A mile from Casa New Dawn, and it's a wonder I don't weigh 350 lbs. (I allow myself a LaKing's shake just once a year!)

In 1940, Neils Bohr had possession of the Nobel Prize medals of Max von Laue (Physics, 1914) and James Frank (Physics, 1925). TO conceal them from the Nazis, George de Hevesy (Chemistry, 1943), an associate of Bohr's, dissolved the medals in aqua regia, and put the containers on a high shelf. After the war, the gold was recovered, sent back to Sweden, and the medals restruck. They were eventually present back to the recipients.

It usually will have a cheese, like sharp cheddar, Swiss or a Mexican Cheese mix.
Lettuce, tomato and green chilis are also regulars.
I always add spices to the burger meat.
Usually garlic, salt, pepper, thyme or basil, some chile powder.
The bun is important, too.
Sesame seed or potato or homemade Hawaiian.
