we broil meats on a regular basis, Hamburger has a silly problem. we mash the meat way flat , and then when cooked it looks like stewie griffen's head. I need something like a tortilla press to keep the meat flat , 2/3's of an inch max , after cooking. it should hold two, 6 ounce patties and be under $11.00 retail.

Tupperware made a pattie press/storage item way back in the '70s. My mother used them to make and freeze burger patties. There was a handled press and circular, stackable form. You'd put wax paper under the form, put the meat in the form, and use the press to compress the meat into a flat disc. Repeat the process and stack the forms for freezing.

umm, I still have a few however it's the after cooking part that needs addressed. Me thinks your reward awaits at the other side of arrest and consumption of said flat burger. ------------------ The plural of anecdote is not data. -Frank Kotsonis | |||

Seems to me bendable has no problem with flat burgers. He just wants them to stay round.

This product exists bendable. Search for a cast iron burger press. Here's one on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Outset-...a-273162467689&psc=1 The reason a burger doesn't stay round while it's cooking is uneven thickness. Thin parts shrink more than the thick parts. Start with a ball of meat, then mash to an even thickness. You can use the grill press to weight the patty down against the cooking surface so it cooks evenly. | |||
