I saw some Choice Chuck at Food Lion last night for $2.99 and figured I should buy it.  Wanted to see if the new plate would be what I am looking for in a grind for texture.  New smaller plate compared to the 4mm that came with the LEM.  It was not the answer.  I am finding it hard to believe that the blend of cuts could make a difference in texture once sent through a grinder, but maybe it is.  Not thinking of experimentation, I ground it all.  My next go round will be to grind using the large plate and make a burger and see if it has any difference on texture.  Average burger.  I have never bought a lot of Ground Chuck, but I see why folks like it.

New Plate.
Cut Chuck.
1st Grind.
Mixed 1st Grind.
2nd Grind.
End product.
Simple CheeseBurger, Russian dressing.

I would probably buy about 30# of chuck roast at $3/#.  It is hard to find if for less than $6 where I live.

The texture of the end product looks like store-bought burger meat to me.

I have come to the conclusion I like about 3 TBS/lb. of finely ground oatmeal in my burger mix!

Just as a binder? I use textured vegetable protein in alot of my sausage. It would probably serve a similar purpose here.

Those onions look fantastic. Sounds like a great burger. Mozz is sort of a strange addition though.

It was a very enjoyable burger.  I may need to get one more before I leave this coming weekend.

It does look good, I agree with the onion and mozzarella comment.  It looks like the bun may have been toasted?  Usually not a fan of that, but a light toast like that looks good.

You can go to the 8:00 mark to see what I am talking about.  I like thin, but it seems like all this patty would be is crust?  Your thoughts? 7500 SK Won is about $6.75.

I assume I would actually enjoy that burger, but I agree that it is a bit on the ultra thin side.
