Agreed. Though sometimes when it's more of a quickie meal and I'm doing most of the prep work, I'll skip that step, because a) I'm the only one who seems to care, and b) it's another whole process, and a pan to wash, etc.

Hmmmmm… I wonder if I could very lightly butter a bun and put it in the toaster on the bagel setting?

We have a grill pan we use.  Lightly buttered and then put a pan or two on top to press everything down.  Flattens the roll but crisps it perfectly.

Never thought of the toaster idea.  I prefer only one side toasted though...

You missed the part where I said the "bagel setting." :-) Only toasts the inside.

I just throw the buns in the toaster oven. I like both sides toasted.

Never even thought about this.  It's like asking a player if they breadth in or out during a backswing.  This will mess up enjoyment of cheese burgers.

Personally, I don't care.  They all end up the same.  :whistle:

My dad said that and it didn't make sense then, and it doesn't make sense now.

YEs, it goes to the same place (your tummy), but HOW it gets there, and HOW it TASTES, varies. And that's almost the entire point.

Good thread and now I am making burgers for dinner!

Meat - 80/20 for sure.  Have to have that fat or it will not be a juicy burger.

Grill - Always!  Never made a bad burger on the grill.  Fat and juicy!  You can saute the mushrooms on the side burner and toast the buns with some butter on the top rack.

Jalapeno peppers on top of the burger before adding the cheese.  After adding the cheese put the mushrooms on so the jalapenos, the cheese and mushrooms all melt together.

Put that fat, juicy burger on that nice buttery, toasted roll.... add in a nice fat slice of beefsteak tomato and some romaine and iceberg lettuce and you have one of the best things to eat!

** No catsup, mayo or mustard here... can't ruin that nice juicy creation I just made **

Saw some folks grilling burgers by the river over the weekend, now I have a hankering to light up the barbecue reading about burgers. Still warm enough.

Of course. I thought this was a given.

Quarter pounders get 2 slices of cheese, one on top, one on bottom, and they are "fanned" so the corners are opposite each other. (see pic)

I don't think I've ever had a quarter pounder that looked like this ;-)

Do you cook your burgers in a pan? If so, you can just toast your buns in the pan before you cook the burgers.

True. Might as well just put all the ingredients in a blender and make a smoothie out of it. :yucky::-P

That's what I do, but toast it after the burgers are done.

Hamburger smoothie? Don't give anyone any ideas, the god forsaken cookie dough store is expanding despite people getting sick.

Sometimes the pan can be a little greasy and the bun would soak it up instead of toasting.

Spoiler

They've never heard of pasteurized eggs? Also I have never liked eating cookie dough, cake batter, etc.


I just remembered one of my favorite burgers I used to make when I was a cook:

Toasted soft hamburger roll, mayonnaise on the heel, quarter pound patty, cheese (optional, I ate it without cheese), two slices of Taylor Ham, slice of raw onion, tomato, lettuce, dijon mustard on the crown.

I also used to work in New Brunswick and this burger is the real deal. @nevets88, next time you come down I'll have to take you here.

Nice. That cheese looks really good. Have you been sous-videing your cheeseburgers? You do anything different?

Spoiler

The dough store claimed to have figured out how to get rid of all the bad stuff so they say, not so for those sick folks.

No. I cook them the old fashioned way. Sometimes I'll cook them in a pan, sometimes on the grill.

Honestly I can't think of the last time I cooked burgers. I don't usually cook beef at home anymore and I eat a lot of Wendy's for lunch so I'm usually not in the mood for burgers at dinner.

The bagel setting thing worked out okay. they browned on one side more than the other, so a flip mid-way through may be required. Also, my bagels are usually about a 3.5 or so on my toaster, and these took about half that: 1.8 to 2.0.

    • Wordle 1,013 4/6* ⬛🟦🟦⬛⬛ ⬛🟦⬛🟦🟦 🟧⬛🟧🟧🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 par is good after a double bogey yesterday.
    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
