Thin to Win Burgers!

I have this tortilla press, and I've been dying to do something other than squash masa for tortilla's with it. I started out with 3 ounces of 80/20 ground beef. My wife rolled them out and my mom was using the press in the assembly line.

I actually setup my griddle on the gasser....quicker heat rebound with the cast and the quick cook of the very thin patties.

For you Ron, maybe...

[Titch]

nice,

I like them thin

[landarc]

Nice, I was concerned that you were a poor misguided soul, but, that burger looks great

[buccaneer]

I also love thin burgers, so juicy and a better balance of moisture I reckon.
What are the crunchy things in the foreground?

I want one bad.

Aussies don't have Tater Tots? Oh, I feel sadly for them now.

[Garrett]

I like tater tots!!

[Hoss]

Heinz is the best ketchup,for TOTS.Burgers look TASTEE ,just need a couple more patties on Dat bun.:wink:Justfunnin,it ALL looks fantastic! :clap:

[rcbaughn]

I'm a thick burger guy..... I'd eat that though if someone was cooking it! Looks good.

[buccaneer]

Recipe looks like potato rosti...a bit.

[Mark Warren]

Finished burger looks surprisingly juicy and awesome. I will try that also next burger cook Thanks.

[rocky2298]

Love that kind of thin with American cheese.. No more meatloaf burgers for me.

[Titch]

I think ours are called Potato gems

[buccaneer]

Never heard of them.
I live a sheltered existence.

[Banjoe]

Fantastic idea. Maybe a couple of tortillas for bun would make a wild & wacky cookout.

I'll be trying this super thin idea.

[chicagokp]

They were very juicy, I think a lot of that was due to the 80/20 meat. They were very good and cooked quickly. American cheese on both patties.

Thanks for all the kind comments guys!

My mouth is watering for the second time after seeing this again... :grin:

[criffaaa1]

[willbird]

I had to order a tortilla press :-)

[Tsevg9]

Mhmmmm, I'll take two.

[Grimm5577]

my wife would love these, she hates my meaty thick burgers.

[tonyhunterajh]

MegaYum! :-D

[Hankbob]

Oh man! Gotta get started on making these at the house!

[jackers252]

Man, great looking burger and a perfect IPA to wash it down with!

[BobM]

That looks great! :thumb:

[GC8]

Thin to win for sure! People always question the thin patties I make until they eat one and realize it's not a hockey puck on the inside and raw ground beef on the inside!
