Ingredients

  • 8 ounces chuck, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
  • 8 ounces sirloin, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

In separate batches, pulse the chuck and the sirloin in a food processor 10 times. Combine the chuck, sirloin, and kosher salt in a large bowl. Form the meat into 5-ounce patties.

Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Place the hamburger patties in the pan. For medium-rare burgers, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side. For medium burgers, cook the patties for 5 minutes on each side. Flip the burgers only once during cooking.

    These were very good and very simple, but i made it for 4 pounds of beef and made normal hamburgers, and of course I added the necessary increase of ingredients for the 3 extra pounds.

    I have been making burgers for years.... And always trying to get that burger joint taste and texture... Eureka. These melted in everyone's mouth. Whether you like 'em rare or well done they are great. Added some fresh parsley and lightly salted butter to the processor for extra fat (flavor Used 1lb flat iron chuck steak and 1lb top round sirloin. Cheaper than the best store made ground beef and sooo much better. Will never buy ground beef for burgers again...

    These were fantastic. I made them into 6 sliders and they were the best burger I've ever had.
