Some Burger Tips From
Dave Stanfel Little Mesa Cafe

There are two types of burgers, thick steak type burgers and the thinner Diner
type burgers. Thicker steak type burgers, (8+oz) must be slow cooked at low
heat on a grill (225 Degrees). The secret magic to the thinner Diner Burgers
is they “must” be cooked on an iron skillet or griddle using high heat; Diner
th
burgers are generally about 3/8 inch thick quarter pounders that pack a lot
of flavor. The other secret is with the thin hamburger patties you “must”
refrigerate the meat for about 20 minutes before placing on the griddle or
they will be overcooked in the center. You can’t find a better burger than a
Diner style burger. Fat content is the other secret 73/27 or 80/20 burger is the
best. Lean hamburger has no flavor
