    #1 rule of cooking burgers. NEVER "squish" them! You want the nutritious tasty juices in them.

      @@paulbuffano985The key to smash burgers is very high temperature for proper caramelization. You smash initially on the pan because your rolled meat balls (patties) should be packed / rolled loosely to allow the juices to cook throughout it but you don’t want to keep them as balls on the grill. After that initial smash (not too hard, just to shape it into a patty) don’t smash it again or you’ll just push the juices out.

    Okay but do you have the stove on Low heat or High heat? I've done it with High heat until it smokes and then turn it down to low and leave it for a bit. But the burgers crust in like 1-2 minutes and end up being under cooked on the inside with a decent crust (i flip after 2 minutes cuz it is already super seared)...

    • @cookac
      @cookac Рік тому +5

      Never use high heat. That’s the reason your inside is undercooked. Start lower, and as soon as you add your meat to the pan, Medium high heat. About a 7/10 heat on a traditional electric stove.

      tbh as long as you're eating a balanced diet tallow is absolutely fine. The modern diet has way more sugar and salt which is the main cause of problems. If you're eating enough veggies in proportion to your meat, and not over indulging on sweet desserts or soft drinks, then go for as fatty meat as you want, you'll be fine.

      That’s the meat working to heal your gut and digestive tract. Meat heals the gut lining and anything on the gut walls will get pulled off and pushed out in waste. If you’re having abdominal issues that is a very good thing the meat is healing your gut. Once it’s done healing the gut you will be able to eat meat without that effect. Do not listen to anything drs or western medicine says. Eating meat heals and creates zero inflammation in the body.

      Well she doesn't have any culinary training. First off you don't need to add any tallow or oil when cooking burgers as they have more than enough fat in them as it is. Secondly you never squish or press a burger patty because you just squish all the fat out of the meat then you end up with a dry burger. Third thing she is cooking at too low of a temperature because it should only take 8 minutes for a burger.
