Cheaper Than Chuck

Choice Tri Tip from Ralphs by far the best tri tip IMHO even compared to some Costco primes. This week it was on sale for $3.97/lb and fully trimmed. :thumb:

Ground it into burgers

I've been loving simple lately so just your classic cheeseburger except the pretzel buns

Oh and plenty moist in case you're wondering

Thanks for looking!

The proof you just had a great burger.:-D

Thanks Josh! I've always been pleased with the fat ratio in tri tip. A little less fatty but fatty enough with extra beef flavor. Can't go wrong.

Looks great Sako!

I've got one I was supposed to cook last night but got interrupted. Going to make a run to the store for fixings and grind it up for tonight. Thanks!

Lean beef can be good, when not cooked to death, and you sir can cook a burger.

Thanks Steve! It cheap as heck here especially if you buy in bulk. The most expensive I've seen is prime at 8.99 to 9.99/lb.

Looks delicious, Sako.... and I find it hard to stop staring at your buns. :shock: :tsk:

So jealous of you Cali guys 'n gals with your cheap tri tip. Only place I've ever found it around here has been Restaurant Depot. And it's untrimmed and a lot more than $3.97/lb.

Thanks Marc!

I've been loving the pretzel buns and the Amoroso's rolls the small warehouse chain down the street started bring in.

We're lucky in that sense. Untrimmed you get 'em for as low as 2.50/lb.

I quit! I've looked at that burger enough times trying to think up something creative to say. I've got nothing but "DAMN, SON..."

BillN · Sep 14, 2019

Simple burger maybe, delicious burger heck yeah...:thumb:

A simple burger done to perfection. I thought I was the only person on the planet that put lettuce and mayo on the bun bottom to keep it from getting soaked. :clap2:
