Burgers on my Weber I could make blind. But the green egg is new to me. Now to learn to grill burgers on a new device you don't go out and buy the most expensive meat. That be silly.

So I bought meat that's called riblappen in Dutch to grind (and if someone could give me the English term for it I'll be very grateful cause I been looking for it for ages.)

The burgers turned out fine but there is room for improvement.

Last year I bought this meat grinder. One of the best investment I ever made for 40 bucks. The meat had some nice fat. Perfect for burgers. €10/kg.

---

---

It takes more time to assemble and clean the grinder than to actually grind the meat (800g in a less than a minute)

---

---

I needed 6 burgers. The fastest way to divide the meat is to just make 6 small balls and start adding meat to each of them one by one till you run out. They will be roughly equal.

---

---

I use a press to make burgers. It creates a little dent in the center so they stay flat while grilling.

---

---

I guess this is sort of a kitchen episode. I cut 4 big red onions.

---

---

I cooked them in a pan with some oil for 10 minutes. Then added butter, sugar and balsamic vinegar. And reduced them down.

Time to grill

---

---

Buns go on first always.

---

I'm just going, to be honest, and show you classic grill error number 1. Not hot enough. this was 200C.

---

---

Preparing the bun. Keeping it simple. A little lettuce and the onions.

---

---

End Result. Now the onions were a great success and tasted delicious with the meat which was perfectly juicy. In fact, the whole burger was delicious but that doesn't mean there wasn't room for improvement. I think I need to make the burger thicker next time and grill on a higher heat to get better grill marks.
