Homemade burger challenge
Saturday, December 3rd, 2016 | Food
Last month we tried mincing our own burgers and also tried the prawn cook-off challenge to see if we could tell the difference between fresh and frozen prawns.
What was the natural successor to these two events? A homemade burger challenge of course.
The premise was simple: two cuts, rump and rib eye. Which would produce the best burger?
Let the mincing begin!
The results were good in both cases. Both cuts are fairly fatty when it comes to steak, but the rump produced a slightly fattier burger, making it Elina’s favourite. I preferred the rib eye.
A week later we also tried it with a sirloin. Sirloin is leaner, so produced a more meatier burger.
