80/20

So every once in a while you get out the ole grill (Weber, in my case) and fire it up for some good hamburgers. Lately I have been very lacking in the "tasty", "juicy" hamburger area. C. J. has been throwing together the burgers with onions and some hamburger seasoning, but, we are not getting tasty and juicy. Fast forward to the grocery where I pick up some ground chuck that is 80/20......make that 80 percent lean, 20 percent fat. C. J. does her normal routine of dicing the onions, adding the seasoning, and forming the patty. On the grill it goes, fire spurts up more than normal. Add cheese to burgers, put burgers on the bun, add mayo and mustard, lettuce and tomato, voila! DELICIOUS! Why can't I do this all the time? I query?
Because we normally use 95/5 she says..................yikes..............THAT explains it all.
Message to self: Stick with 80/20

Viva C. J.
Viva Cheeseburger
Peace Upon You.

I would challenge you to thoroughly examine your suggestion/complaint box from side to side and from top to bottom and you will find zero, zilch, nada in the way of complaints about what comes off your grill my kind sir.
