Thanks mate, for responding to my comments am Ex-Army, and l left the service about two years ago.After leaving army l got a good job, but due Covid the company closed down, so ended up in a burger meat factory, it's not the worst job, am getting promoted to duty manager in two weeks, but this short term job for myself. Am going back into door supervisor security, once am sure there is no more lock-downs. Thanks for not looking down on me, so many others do.

Totally agree they are actually really good , trick I used to use in my skint days was to pinch some Oxo cube ( just a little) on each side of the burger and rub it all over then grill , actually came out tasting like a Micheline stared Ramsey burger .

Usually get the breaded chicken burgers for a lunchtime snack and they are alright once the chilli sauce is on there. This week they subbed them with birds eye ones and honestly I could not have told you the difference.

@@BaldFoodieGuy Top tip here Gareth! Take a sachet of Dioraltye (Electrolyte brand name) in a pint of water before going to bed. Learnt this from my mate whos a fireman here in Dublin. Alcohol is a diuretic, and your body wants to get rid of it as quickly as possible. Your body uses up huge amounts of water to get the alcohol out of your system hence why you pee a lot when drinking. You lose all the salts in your stomach from going to the toilet which leads to dehydration and a monster hangover. I never have a hangover any more..try it!

It definitely looks like Asda Smart Price items, are pretty good compared with the more expensive products... I've seen a few reviews of the Smart Price items you've done before Gaz... And they all seem to do really well in comparison tests... There's almost no difference between these two Beef Burgers... Certainly none that kids could detect anyway... Like you said, once they chuck it in a Burger Bun with a load of Ketchup etc. they won't know the difference anyway... £2.18 less for the Smart Price Beef Burgers means with the money you save... You can buy a large bag of Asda Smart Price Chips 1.5kg for £0.90... And a pack of Warburtons 8 Sliced Soft White Rolls for £1.00, and still have change left over... Why would anyone want to pay the extra money!?... Another great money saving review Gaz... Keep up the good work mate... Cheers. 🍺

Hi Gareth, l hope your doing great, the only difference here is that Asda middle range uses 100% normal beef mince and the economy supermarket burger/ Smartprice can use up to 30% Offal i.e. kidney heart and tongue, in the manufacture of the burger that's how their is part of the price difference. All supermarkets make their money on the middle range not the economy range. They use British and lrish meat as it says on the box, the man who owns meat/burger factory is one richest man in the UK and Ireland, he owns meats factories in four different countries in Europe, and one in brazil and he even owns two dog/cat food factories.

If u want good burgers then make them yourself. Get beef mince, salt pepper, grate some fresh garlic, mix it up, pop in a burger press, fry burgers and some red onion, then just before burgers done add Stilton to the top and grill them until melted. Pop in lightly toasted buns and throw some salad and bits on job done. Pork burgers are always good to do needs fresh coriander in burger mix and swap strong cheese for mild like mozzarella or Brie

And on a burger cost basis the cheaper ones are some 20p each burger cheaper than the others and with a big family on a budget them 20p add up.

Where I live there is no Asda, Tesco, Lidl or most of the supermarkets you have in the UK. We do have Aldi and Woolworths and a couple of other local supermarket chains. For this reason we do not have access to many of the brands that you test. We do however have local brands and their smart price equivalents, (also known as generic brands.) I must admit that many of the smart price brands offer good value for money, especially for those on a limited budget. I am a pensioner, and I am certainly not rich, so I have to shop wisely. I am certainly not too proud to put a few generic brand goods into my shopping trolley if it means saving a little money.

Another thought here... How much would it cost per pound/kilo/grams for the beef? While I would always opt for the meatier option to avoid the high carb/junk fillers, I would also consider if it's cheaper to make my own from beef. For example, there is a super sale price here (New Jersey USA) for (80/20 meat/fat ratio) ground beef for $2.49/lb. That's 454 grams. I would make 4oz burgers here, but that would be 113 grams, so I'd get 4/lb of beef. Your beef patties are half that weight. So I could get 8 - 56gram all beef burgers for $2.49. They typically do not sell a lot of frozen beef patties here in winter, but the closest I could find would be a 2lb box for 12.99! Yikes! That's $6.50/lb! Lidl here are selling fresh 80/20 beef patties on sale for $4.49/lb and 80/20 ground beef is $3.99/lb on sale.

In the north where im assuming he's from it costs around $6.40 for 2.2lb of 80/20 beef mince. We normally can buy 500g or 1kg packets from the supermarket or by weight from the butcher.

Thanks for the brilliant comparison whereby you've confirmed theres only a marginal difference between the two. And yes, once the cheaper burger is put in a bun then seasoned and garnished together with the other trimmings to make it into a gourmet burger then no one would ever know its a smart price burger. I always thought the smart price burgers were something like only 15% meat. So many thanks for informing us foodies that they are worth while particularly if on a budget. Cheers Gareth and see you on the next one. 👍.
