Cast Iron is the best thing ever for cooking.  300 million people can't be wrong.  If only I was allowed to use mine.
 
That being said, venison burgers coming soon.

Parchment paper between glass cooktop and cast iron pan. Use Reynold's, it's coated. It will slide on the cooktop if you move the pan, and adds extra cushion/protection.
 
To be extra safe just don't move the pan. You don't need to with CI anyway.
 
No excuses Jay. Break out the CI!
 
 I gotz teh cast iron right here y'all.
 
I was goin' to grind my own beef but got busy and so got some 85/15 Nolan Ryan beefage.
 
 About 1 ounce or slightly more loose meat balls, smashed with onion and fresno chile and kosher salt.
 
That's it.
 

 
Ever 'thang was goin' whoop ass fast.
 
This was the flip after about 45 seconds.
 

 
Slapped 'em on some toasted white little squishy buns and nuthin' more.
 

 
No mayo. No ketchup. No mustard. No tomato, lettuce, pickles or foo foo. No nuthin' else.
 
I love cheese on my burger but with this sheeit you don't need it or want it.
 
All by its lonesome its goodern' hell y'all!
 

 
The onion compliments the beef perfectly but I could have used more fresno to crank up the spiceenescxt.
 
It was still pretty dang for true incredible.
 
You can't buy a burger of any kine' that will ever be as good as one like this that you make at home y'all.
 
I ain't lyin'.
 
 
 
True story.
 
I got to do this again y'all.
 
I can't help myself sometimes.
 
Toasted squishy buns with sliced roma, pickled xalapa's, mustard splooge.
 

 
Black Betty'fied  with thin sliced onion and splooges of mustard ala In-N-Out style.
 

 
Turned this sheeit quick for more pinknessessess.
 

 
Nuthin' else on here needed and why would you want to....

This is like picking up your prom date and then seeing her mother is so got damn good lookin'!

Hippy chicks love me.
 
All other hippy's fear me.
 
I ain't scared.
 
And the hippy chicks love me 'cuz I make those sliders lika' teh secks.
 
Muchas gracias Penny for the kudos but I have to say...
 
While these sliders were dern good they don't even come close to being as good as if I ground my own 80/20 blend from fresh chuck.
 
I highly recommend that ever body try that at least once and experience the difference in flavor and quality.
 
Its an epiphany.
 
I heard that back in the day that Jesus ran a little burger stand in Jerusalem.
 
Yup.
 
Fresh ground chuck is what he used. 
 
I heard that he had a dozen guy's always hangin' out with Him just for the burgers.
 
 
 
True story.
 
Is that a double post? Ohh nope. It's TB posting burgers two days in a row. Is TB back???? :rofl:

So your 80/20 blend consists of what? Everyone always uses different meats, but yours do sound good! :dance:

Beef. 80% meat, 20% fat.

A course grind is always best for burgers. And yup unless you have a good butcher, usually it is not course. I think Booma (or someone) posted some sick course grind burgers back a few pages. The medium grind is good, but the fine/spaghetti looking grind is horrible for burgers. Horrible!!! It just becomes mush.

Nice work TB.
 
Gracias THP.
 
Penny ~ Here is exactly how I do it when I grind my own beef which is chuck steak/roast.
 
Check out George's smash technique.

TB, I ain't got no issue with the smashburger, they start with a loose meatball and smash the raw side, into a patty. The no-no smashing is when it's already a patty, you flip it once, and smash the cooked side down squeezing all the juice out. Some people do this out of being bored and just staring at the burger when it's cooking, thinking they have to do something to it. Leave it alonnnne! But the smashburger technique is different. I dig. And I've done. Before it was all the rage, lol.
 
I haz venison burgers.  I took about a lb of ground venison and sprinkled it with sea salt, cracked black pepper, garlic, Joyner's Caribbean Chocolate blend, and a dash of worcestershire.  I balled them up into four balls.  I sliced up two jalapenos (I wanted to use onions too, but turned out I had none, and didn't feel like going to the stoh), mashed the venison into a hot pan with just a spash of canola oil, mashed the jalapeno slices into them and let cook for about a minute.  I flipped them and topped with pepperjack.  Toasted some buns, spread them with a little mayo, then the burger, then a little bacon, and a nice splooge of spicy bbq sauce.  Voila.  Nice tasty venison with some kick.
