Juicy Pub-Style Burgers
By Foodiewife, A Feast for the Eyes
I've never made my own ground beef, for burgers, because
- 2 pounds sirloin steak tips*, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- Salt and pepper
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 4 hamburger buns, toasted and buttered (I prefer brioche burger buns)
- NOTE: *sirloin steak tips is also known as "flap meat". It doesn't sound pretty, but don't let that discourage you. It's delicious. I buy mine at Costco.
