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.

If you're set on that $11 budget, here:

I'll take my finders fee, now.

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.

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.

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.

we are not grillers much any more, this press will be put in the oven to keep the meat flat whilst broiling.

we dimple , but the meat still starts to rise and become football shaped .
