- Frozen burgers isn't bad to use when in a pinch, but some are better than others, and I tested all the 80/20 styles (yes, there's more options, but I wanted to test the 80/20 variations). Enjoy.

I absolutely love the great value frozen burgers for when I'm in a rush and don't want to make my own patties. Always keep a bag in the freezer.
I see why. They aren't bad at all!
My main complaint is that half the time, the plastic bag tears when I try to open the resealable strip, and I have to relocate them into a couple freezer bags.
Best frozen burgers I've had, Costco sirloin burgers. Great flavor, they don't shrink as much and don't cup as much as some of the others I've cooked up. My VFW Post used to do a burger and hot dog booth at our local Lumber Jubilee. I cooked and sold over 1200 burgers and 600 dogs in 2 days.
Boy that's a lot of burgers and dogs!!!
Agreed
Costco is the way
Ik. I wish he tried costco burgers
Hell yes! Costco burgers sirloin or the angus.
I use the frozen patties on my george forman grill. Works perfect
sounds like someone needs a friend
@@Mr._Chievousdefinitely not you
should have done a blind taste test! PART 2!!!
much love!
Yeah, should have probably.
I was rooting for Bubba 😂. Good to know which are better at Walmart. I don’t usually buy frozen ones. Great job Hussey. Have a wonderful day.
Thank you Robert!
You always got to root for Bubba weathered is a burger or not.
Here's the thing. For the same price (it's actually a little bit cheaper) you could make double burgers using the Walmart bag version as opposed to a single Bubba Burger and the Walmart burger would taste almost the same with a lot more burger.
Six 1/3lbs Bubbas are $14 at my walmart while twelve 1/4lbs Great Value burgers cost $13. If this review claims that they are super close in taste, then it's almost a no-brainer to get the Great Value burgers because you could be having 1/2lbs burgers for the price of 1/3lbs burgers.
I'd normally agree with quality over quantity, but I also think Walmart is able to bring equal quality due to their sheer size while keeping costs down over a much smaller company like Bubba so the argument of Bubba being higher quality is pretty much non-existent.
Bubba's are the worst I've ever bought!!🤢🤮🤢
Shoot Bubba burgers better be the best tasting they are the most expensive to at $24 a box.
Today or tomorrow I will be trying the Shaq frozen patties. And for the size of them they are bigger then bubba but bigger isn’t always better. But we shall see tomorrow. If they aren’t that great then I will have to finally try bubba patties. I’ve heard nothing but great things about bubbas patties. So I’m gonna have to just try them out. Saving best for last I hope lol 😂
I have not been disappointed any time I purchased bubba's burgers.
Same
I love both fresh or frozen and for the frozen variety I absolutely love the Bradshaw ranch thick and juicy frozen burgers. A coworker of mine a few years back worked at a grocery store and she was the one that got me hooked on this brand of burgers back then they were just called thick and juicy but now they are Bradshaw ranch thick and juicy and I've had frozen burgers in the past and these guys knock it out of the ball park for being a great frozen burger. Also the Bradshaw ranch frozen burgers are made with angus meat
I have a “grill grate” in my air fryer… Bubba burgers come out incredible in 12 minutes with grill marks!
That is a great idea! I also have a double grill grate, haven't used in years, I found the grates a bit too narrow, they are good if using a public grill... but putting one in air fryer might be interesting!
For anyone curious, here are the current prices (per burger) at Walmart:
Great Value 80% 1/4 pound... $1.08
Philly Gourmet 1/4 pound......$1.21
Marketside 1/3 pound............$1.66
Bubba Burger 1/3 pound........$2.33
Thanks Marty!
Great Value: 4.32/lb
Philly: 4.84/lb
Marketside: 4.98/lb
Bubba: 6.99/lb
Normalized your prices so that they are easier to compare.
Bubba burgers should be called grease burgers.
Bubba got more meat glue .
That's literally bullshit. Your pricing it as one, when there is 6-8 per box. Dum fuc.
When I have a large party at my house, I use frozen burger patties. It makes the cooking turnaround time a lot quicker. It's nice to know that I have not profaned my Blackstone Griddle or the whole Blackstone community by using these 😆
Haha.. Not at all buddy, not at all!
This was great to watch, thank you. I usually get my burgers and doggies from Omaha Steaks. They’re a little costly, but if you catch a sale they’re more reasonable. I haven’t found anything better. 🥘♥️
The dog is really givin you the stink eye under the table for not giving him a sample.
I noticed that, too.
She got to try it too… 😂
Philly gourmet also comes in a 1/3 pound burger. I like them they're very good
Marketside frozen burgers have a burger with Vidalia onion nice flavor and a different one called Bradshaw Ranch with cheddar cheese garlic and butter awesome flavor but these were 6 frozen burgers instead of 8 burgers all 👍
These are awesome for summer cookouts😋
Tried That onion one. straight terrible 😅
Yes they are not bad at all unless your tastebuds are burnt off
Awesome and thank you for doing this! My hubby loves his burgers and we bought our Blackstone last summer after we moved and have been watching your videos ever since
In a pinch, those will work just fine for sure. I did a dog test too not long ago that'll be coming out as well I think you'll enjoy.
I really appreciate ya'lls support and welcome to the Blackstone family.
Great video, thank you for giving your review of the burgers and sharing with all of us.
Thanks for watching!
I only splurge and get bubba burgers when I’m having a cook out. I love the bacon and cheddar ones. They are always a hit.
Sorry, I'm sure ya'll were waiting for this, but I hope you gave that sweet pup a bite. LOL
Oh she got hers for sure!
Bubba burgers are in the shape of Texas!!!
nope
I have done work at the plant where they make BB and they do start out shaped like Texas. Then it is flash frozen and the shape kind of distorts. But his intention IS Texas. Great plant and very clean.
I make my burgers 80/20 put in all the spices: onion powder, garlic powder, italian herbs, mustard, ketchup and bbq sauce with planko. Make the patties, freeze them with parchment paper between them. Easy and quick to grab to throw in the air fryer or grill. Yummy! I agree though with Bubba burgers such as when we do a 40 people coming over bbq!
Thanks for your homemade burger idea❤❤❤
There is no such thing other than homemade burgers. I Hate frozen. And I also pre make patties and freeze for later. Salt and pepper and chopped onions mixed in the meat
It tastes amazing! I also buy my Hamburg on sale and freeze it in the right quantity for usage. Thos way I can use it according. YW for the idea. @@antoinettebrown8517
You forgot the dried Badia onions. I soak them in the BBQ sauce !!!!! Kids make your own! And do NOT make it with ketchup! !!!!!!!!! you will never ever buy it again.
Sounds great to me!
I've had the Bubba ones, and thought they were pretty good. They're handy to have on hand👍😊
In a pinch, it's not bad at all.
Hussey, if you have a Costco nearby try their Kirkland Brand 1/3 Lb, Angus ground chuck and beef patties. 75/25 ratio. As you said, for an in the pinch burger they are pretty dang good! I always use 75/25 for burgers if I can.
Planning on doing a Sams and Costco run soon!@
Kirkland's are the best I've ever had
I recently found out the bag of burgers you can get at Aldi are pretty damned good.
You beat me to it- I love them, and they're currently on sale for under $10. for 3 pounds.
I have to disagree. They’re terrible. My son won’t eat them & he eats anything. As well as Aldi angus burgers in box. No one would touch them
@@jesselliott604it's almost like people can have different opinions.
@@astuteandyit’s almost like you can’t comprehend the reason they commented.
@@deander7653 I can, I just think it's funny that someone who thinks they're bad would even consider that someone who likes them would give two shits if anyone else likes them.
Another great video. We've had the Bubba and Great Value and both are good but we prefer the cheap Great Value.
GV, for the price cannot be beat!
Great value great taste
I buy frozen Bubba burgers for quick and easy meals. They’re great when I don’t have time for fresh ground beef patties. The fact that they’re 1/3 pound ensures they don’t dry out on the grill the way 1/4 pound burgers do. You chose the right one! 👍🏾
you must not care about your health,,,,
@@lexcan05Is this what you do, troll meat videos making health comments? If you think these are so bad why are you here? 🤷🏻♂️🤡
@@lexcan05We all gonna go someway, why not death by burger?
Love your videos. Things have changed so much in your videos over the years. Now I have to go get Bubba's and put them in the freezer. I always think of having a burger but all the beef is frozen in packages and can't unthaw in time. I bought Duke's mayo after watching your videos but can't open it yet until my regular mayo is gone. I can't wait. I also bought a Blackstone griddle a few years ago after watching your videos and it is fantastic. I still keep a charcoal grill for that special taste once in a while. Thanks for your great videos.
Hey Richard! Hopefully change is a good thing and not bad. I feel I've come a long ways personally from the old days, as far as camera presence an such.
Enjoy the Duke's mayo when you get to it and the Bubba or Great Value burgers too!
When i use frozen patties, i season one side of 2 patties with cajun 2 step and salt, put the seasoned sides together, then smash them down to 1 burger. The seasoning cooks through to the outside while you cook it. Sometimes i use tiger sauce on them on the grill like you would use barbecue sauce. You just have to coat it with tiger sauce a couple of times since it isn't as thick as barbecue sauce. Its a really good flavor on a burger
I hear that!!! Sounds great Joe!
Perfect timing I was just thinking about buying frozen burgers. I have. Brother can’t stand them this video has provided perfect results for me coming from you thank you
My kids had a market day sale at their school and we bought a box of frozen steak burgers, and those were the best burgers we ever ate!
What was the brand?
Bubba Burgers are made to look like they were hand pattied. They started in GA and are headquartered in Jacksonville, FL where they were first distributed. Walter "Bubba" Eaves was their founder in Elberton, GA. They are owned by Hickory Foods in Jacksonville.
I actually worked for the company that did the printing plates and artwork (or lack there of) for the Bubba Burger boxes. Even drove to Waycross, GA to get things approved. I would swear they had a Bubba Burger with Vidalia onion back in the day.
Thanks for the video. I suggest placing them on the griddle in a horizontal fashion instead of vertical, so each brand gets similar exposure to heat (which varies more horizontally than vertically ). Just a thought.
Good suggestion.
I live alone and pretty much only cook from frozen on my pellet grill. I really like the one third pound Angus burgers (bacon and cheddar) I also like mine with a thick slice of grilled onion. I grill one side of my sliced onions then set them aside. Then I grill on side of of my burgers at 450. I only turn my burgers one time after I get some grill marks. Once I flip the burgers I put the onion slice on top with the grill marks up. When I get grill marks on the burger they go straight to the plate or the bun.
Sounds like a great approach!
i just cooked some of the great value patties this weekend. They were great for the price, they shrunk quiet a bit. The members mark sirloin burgers are my favorite from sams.
Thinking about trying the Members Mark and Costco brands too!
I always liked the Sams club burgers from Walmart - pretty good, frozen and cooks up easy...
Oh yes!
My pastor used to make up a bbq rub he called “Heifer Dust”. He learned the mix from an old bbq man he worked for back in the ‘50’s in Ft.Worth. This is the first time I’ve heard this term used in many years.
Considering most of these BBQ rubs are made from the same ingredients: garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, paprika, sugar and a bit of cayenne [don’t take my word for it, look up the ingredients for Heifer Dust and just about every BBQ rub out there], I always just make my own. I honestly don’t know why people prefer to pay $6-9 for a small container of these rubs when you can literally make your own for about 25 cents if you buy the ingredients in bulk.
Most food trucks, festivals, baseball games, family picnics serve frozen burgers. We buy half black angus beef from a farmer each year. So our burgers are in one pound frozen packages. But I used to buy Bubbas in the 90s.
I get some at the beginning of every summer. I love making great burgers on the grill. But, sometimes you didn't prepare ahead. Bubba is my favorite. But, the generics from Walmart or Aldis are really good. Find one you like. Great in a pinch.
Aldi, haven't thought about them!
Great job. I recommend flipping one last time just before applying the cheese. The hot meat helps give it a good melt
Damn you Hussey. NOW I want a burger and it's only eleven in the morning. LOL. I did make frozen burgers and some Johnsonville brats on the Blackstone just last evening. GREAT video as usual brother!!!!!!!
Thanks my friend!!! I appreciate you watching!
Great video review! I recently tried the Marketside and agree they really weren't that good. I'm going to get Bubba burgers next time! We're low-carb high-fat Carnivore, so we eat a ton of burgers & red meat, so we appreciate these reviews.
I think I have a guilty pleasure with frozen patties. It shouldn't be good, but sometimes it is what mouth wants. Cheers!!
Nothing wrong with that my friend!!! You like what you like!
Another very informative video. Nice to know there is a decent frozen burger at Walmart. Very readily available in most locations. Thank you for doing this video Matt. Greatly appreciated my friend. God bless.
If I ever made frozen burgers, my mother would rise from her grave and come hit me on the back of the head with her spatula lol. Always made them fresh.
Agreed! It’s just so easy to buy fresh ground beef and make them yourself!
Or for the ultimate burger, I recommend grinding up chuck roast yourself. It’s truly the best hamburger I’ve ever made.
Many cannot afford a Costco membership or don't have the need to buy in bulk. Im sure thats why Walmart was used with choices to review. I bought some beef and brisket frozen burgers somewhere, but can't recall if they were from ALDI or Publix in the freezer section, but they were d'lish just by themselves!😋
My idea is to go different places, Walmart, Sams, Costco, etc and review them all and as you said, not everyone has a membership to those places.
Thank you for that taste test. A couple things....patties might be shaped irregular to give the consumer a feeling of "homemade" also look at the ingredients of the Philly burgers. Maybe there are some weird "fillers" like beef hearts. Thanks again Matthew ❤
I looked on the box, just beef it says. Weird. So, for Bubba Burgers, I'm hearing it's the shape of Texas! Pretty neat!
Hello Cousin Hussey from Gatlinburg! I try to have a burger once a week with Pepper jack cheese..yum! 🍔🍔
Thanks Cuz!!! Appreciate it! I love some pepper jack too!
@@thehungryhussey yes sir!! With Duke's Mayo too *just a tad* lol
I love this review. You could do a follow-up on how these burgers (thawed) make a smash burger. I would love that!
Please try the kroger brand "private selection - applewood smoked bacon & cheddar" best ive had
We've had the Great Value many times. I tried the Marketside last time. They were hard to get apart. Wife actually broke the glass stove top with them. I'm going to try the Bubba Burgers next.😊
Oh Huss, in my humble opinion Sams has Members Mark 1/3 lb Angus or Sirloin that do the trick I also but the premade sliders in the beef section for smash burgers
PS I use Cheerwine to cleanse my pallette
Gotta throw sams club burgers on there. They got the best
Another test for sure!
For a true test, did you check for hot spots on the grill? That can also affect the "coloration".
Yeah, it would. You’re right.
How do you do a taste test and you're pouring seasoning on them ?
There’s more to it than that. To be honest, though. I shouldn’t have seasoned them though.
I don't do frozen burgers all that often but on the occasions I go there I tend to get the cheapest and no frills available in whatever store I'm going to. Most of the time I just buy the fresh stuff in the local grocery and leave it at that.
What was the green stuff on the knife you used to cut the burgers into quarters?
Ive always wondered, does it make a difference to thaw frozen burgers vs cooking them frozen?
Good point!
I think you should had some cheer-wine with those burgers. Awesome vid Hussey
Haha... I know right. Been doing more water, but funny thing is, I ran of out Cheerwine downstairs and didn't feel like going upstairs.
I have been using the market side burgers but I let them defrost and then I flatten them out and they are delicious
What I don't like is when they press burgers SO TIGHT that they're sometimes as tough as a cheap steak. Taste is great as long as you can eat it. You get alot of flavor chewing on your last bite for 20 minutes.😜
By the way, I would've chosen Bubba Burger too.
Fair enough!
Ive always used frozen pattys an smoked them. They come out so damn good!
I buy fresh ground beef in bulk at BJs, make 1/3 lb patties, wrap, and freeze in portions that fit my family. It takes a bit of time, but it's worth it to me. I do appreciate Bubba burgers when they go on sale :)
I like the Costco frozen patties the best. I've tried all the ones you had and still find Costco has the best.
Bubba is usually my goto burger...they have a burger with cheese infused...its REALLY good
I do my own. Garlic salt and ketchup to season before squishing. They are AWESOME!!!
Bubba for the WIN!! Not a big fan of frozen burgers, but I'll have to give them Bubba burgers a try!
Ole Bubba isn't bad at all brother! Thanks Butch for watching!
You won’t be sorry! They are excellent and I am not a fan of frozen burgers. Get the ones with onion.
May have to try the Marketside burgers sometime, I love the Marketside sausages
The Marketside isn't bad at all.
Did the taste or texture change at all in your opinion as they cooled off while you were filming and taste testing?
They do seem to dry out more in my opinion. Maggie girl loved it though.
Bubba burgers have been my go to for years. I get the angus and the sweet onion.
One more you should've added to the review, Jensen Angus Chuck & Beef Brisket Blend Ground Beef Burgers. They are by far my favorite frozen beef patties. I gotta agree with you about the Bubba Burgers, they are not bad at all. I would vouch for the Great Value brand beef patties if you are going to cook for quite a lot of people during your cookout. You can't beat the price though. But the Jensen brand one though, such great taste when using a charcoal grill.
Bacon cheddar from Sam’s club 👍
Sam's Club - Chop House and Member's Mark brands. I like them better than Bubba and Great Value. However, I try to keep the cheaper (GV) around for dinners other than burgers (smothered patties for one)
Thanks! Plan on doing some others too!
I usually do a grind of brisket, chuck, and short rib for my burgers. My sister in law invited us over for a cookout and it was Bubba's burgers.
I stopped inviting her over to cookouts. 😅
Haha... Give sis another try man.
Haha.
Glad they made this hybrid. Been thinking the exact thing since day one Sevrs came on the market.
Alrighty then... Not sure what this means, but thanks for stopping by
@@thehungryhussey Sorry make a comment on the wrong video. Damn fat fingers of mine. My apologies. Burgers looked good though. Bubba burgers are my go to when camping. Thanks
What temp is the griddle? Nice to see the results! We do Bubba all the time.
375 degrees to 400 degrees.
What is in the heifer dust?
thanks
Thank You, been wondering about frozen burgers
We have a country store that makes a burger called the “Bubba burger”. 🍔 It is certainly one of the best burgers I’ve eaten.
That's cool!
Thumbnail photo misspelling is hilarious. Love you Hussy
I see what you were coming to see!!!! haha...
@@thehungryhussey hey, I'd leave it. Might get more subscriptions. LOL 😂
The ones from Aldi are very good.
Good to know. Maybe we'll do a showdown of a couple stores to see who's got the best burger.
I agree! The Cattlemens ranch frozen burgers are really good. Reasonably priced too.
Fresh is always the best but thx for the info.
Thanks for this taste test❤!
Could some of that better color be due to your heat zones? My inner burners are always better than the outer burners for sear.
Totally I should have had some of my outers up higher for sure.
Just bought marketside bacon and cheddar and I was impressed
I remember the 1st time I had a bubba burger 20 yrs ago, best/cheap frozen Pattie out, soooo good I’ve been out and ordered a gourmet burger “SOB it’s a got dang bubba burger lol…
They not cheap anymore. They proud of those suckers. lol.
Kroger frozen patties are pretty dam good as well. You should try them out if you have a Kroger nearby.
Good review my dude, such a perfect topic right before July 4th!
Great video, do more of these to change it up!
For sure!
I promise you that back in the day the Philly Gourmet were excellent! They were nothing like they are today! They used to be circular and uniformed with a good taste and no nasty after taste or hard chunks of gristle. They SUCK now and it breaks my heart. My family comes from Little Italy ans things have just gone down hill with everything Philly related. The food, the neighborhoods, the metro, it just makes me sad thinking about it. We still have Rapa scrapple though!
Many folks appear to have the same experience with the Philly Gormet and I agree with you, it’s difficult to see that happen especially when you’re close to a product.
Thanks I bought the Philly recently for my son ooops next I’m sending the Bubba 😂👍🏻
Matthew ,,, all those burgers look good . I would eat any one of them. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.......
Thanks Frank!!! Good to see you pal! Been a while. Hope all is well in Montana!
Best way to cook frozen burgers is on a grill ( bbq gas grill ) . I concur … love the Bubba burgers :)
Bubbas are pretty tasty for sure. Just curious, ever tried a griddle?
@@thehungryhussey Yes I like the griddle for fresh beef burgers .
Lol the ole puppy loves burger testing day!!!
Bubba burgers are good , but you just can't knock the value and taste of the " bag o patty's " Great value burgers. I've been using those for years when I need to make a quick last-minute meal for the family.
Nope, sure cannot. AND Bubba got a chip on his shoulder with them prices.
First time watcher you must be from the great state of NC cause I see a Bright Leaf hotdog sign behind ya the best hotdogs ever in my opinion
I'm friends with those guys, but Bright Leafs aren't everywhere in my area. My area is more Curtis and Jesse Jones for red dogs.
Target has some good burgers that are already seasoned😋😋😋
Do you have a Food Lion near you? Their frozen 80/20 ground chuck burgers are the absolute best frozen patties there are. If you have them, you have to test them. If you don't, I wonder if someone knows how to ship you a box of them (and keep them frozen). I am so interested in your opinion on them.
Yes, I do. I’m in central NC, which is HQ of Food Lion. I’m going to try some other burgers as well soon from different places.
@@thehungryhussey Awesome, look forward to it. Do the blind taste test routine when you do!
ONCE YOU TASTE OMAHA HAMBURGERS, YOU NEVER LOOK BACK ! IT’S GROUND STEAK !
To get a good review, you must share those burgers with all of us
Let's do it!
Howdy All Can I Just Say That One Finds That @The Hungry Hussey is indeed the stuff of youtube Legends ladies and gentlemen 😂. His content Is exceedingly epic and that's they way I like it 😂. I'd love to do a cooking collab with him one day.
Appreciate the kind words!!! Means a lot! Let’s do some cooking!
@@thehungryhussey your welcome sir. Sure indeed one day sir I shall let you know when
