Butter Burgers - The Juiciest Cheeseburger EVER!

[@canjeep]

the move is to grill the bun in the butter left on the grill ... awesome burger

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

We did. Just didn't show it.

[@coolroy4300]

Yep my Grandmother's secret was Worcester sauce and she grilled the buns inside part in the hamburger grease .

[@joshh5853]

We’re all gonna go one day, would you rather be drowning in butter or choking on lettuce? I vote the burger

[@BearzapperBBQ]

You make the best point. Spot on.

[@rhettrogers79]

eat it without a bun and you will live long and prosper - it aint the meat and butter that's killing us folks - it is sugar and carbs!!! #Carnivoreforlife!

I would forgo the butter on the griddle for a high smoke point oil so you can sear the daisies off that thing.

[@tonyvillalba6299]

Coconut oil?

[@thomaswallis8452]

I add about a tablespoon of chilled bacon grease to my 80/20 meat patties and the outcome is really delicious and juicy burgers. I’ll try with butter next time and compare the flavor differences. Thanks for the idea of using butter!

[@DenaInWyo]

That's a good idea too. You could even freeze a lump then grate to get it more evenly dispersed. I think I really need to give that a shot.

Looks great. If ever in WI. Check out the Solly’s Grille. They’ve been around forever making butter burgers. They put about half a stick of local butter on top of your burger, and as it melts, you dip your burger in the plate of melted butter. They recently got some recognition and won a James Beard award.

That butter turning brown on the griddle is wasted. Add the butter to the top after cooking. There’s a reason we’re all fat in Wisconsin… Sollys Grill video, just so you know we're not lying about half a stick. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6ekmJ-thcd3pLMsi=X-P184E8Hfbd-pwe

Coincidentally, I grilled a butter burger for my wife last Saturday. I didn't mix the butter in the meat but added on top after I flipped. Holy Cow on one side. Holy Gospel on the other for her. Melted gouda cheese and built with a fresh white onion slice. Do simply but so amazing! 😋

Hey from Valencia, Spain. Tried these, love them. Added cured ham, which I cook on the hotplate for 30 seconds, ends up like mega crispy bacon. Sounds weird but, adds cruncy texture and intense salty flavour before arriving to the smooth buttery burger. Love the channel

[@pamesteves1000]

Well, that one is on the menu this weekend!!! Thanks to you Matt, my husband has gone hog wild with your seasonings and grills. We have a outdoor contractor coming Friday to start an outdoor kitchen!!! Thanks again for all your videos and input, much appreciated!!!!

[@jvoronin]

I live about 30 minutes away from Waxahachie, where Meat Church is located. Matt isn't kidding when he talks about how hot it is right now-it makes grilling VERY torturous! Seeing that he set up at his shop makes me feel like less of a weenie. I'm planning on a patio cover to block out afternoon soon. My patio is covered, I just need to block out the sun.

Our burgers are ground elk meat with 30 percent ground pork shoulder added in. I butter the buns and hit the grill for about 60 seconds with them. The ground elk is 100 percent lean without the pork shoulder but the pork adds flavor and binds it together.

[@dheezknutz]

Loved hearing the shout out for Sam. My Saturday mornings always starts with Meat Church and Sam the Cooking Guy and coffee.

Butter and meat are healthy. It’s the bun that’s unhealthy. Looks delicious!

[@FreeBird614Two]

Great method, I have been skillet frying burgers in butter and oil and basting the burger as it cooks... also achieves a great result

[@ChantelJordan-fm7kx]

Why. The burger has its own fat. Try not using extra Lean ground beef

I can vouch on the compound butter disc in the middles. As the meat crusts, it helps hold that butter in the middle.

[@joeflaker]

Dude, I've watched your content for a couple years now. I've even picked up the habit of saying "I ain't mad at that". But when you swore after that first bite, I quite literally cheered. Out loud. At home. By myself. We Wisconsinites know a thing or two. Keep up the good work!

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

HAHA!

[@brianazmy3156]

I'm also a fan of the darker outside of the burger and I'll torch it up to get that perfect char and still have a bit of pink in the middle. Thanks for sharing your talents and tips.

[@TTGTO288]

Matt, you gotta try making a Morton burger with tomato juice and sauted onions and jalapeños in it. Add butter to it too.

[@davehanson9394]

I agree, this Butter Burger seems delicious. Solly's Grill in Milwaukee, WI is known for their Butter Burgers. Like you did, they add butter to the beef mix. Culvers is also known for their Butter Burgers. No butter is added to the beef mix. The buns are lightly buttered and toasted. Many youtube burger cooks do the same thing. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. It depends if I have planned ahead and had softened butter to spread on. Just like a Grilled Cheese.

[@glenngilman9654]

I’ve had amazing success using the smash method on my griddle. Roll 80/20 into a ball with my seasoning in the center. I put a patty of butter down first and then smashed the burger on top of it. Get a nice crust on both sides. Griddle my buns with butter. My friends and family beg me to make them!

[@michaelmahoney7275]

I'd likely grill them at higher temp to get the char I'd like. 425° on Traeger. Still 130°-135° internal before cheese.

[@rexdickerson6833]

Big fan of the Meat Church BBQ channel. I have tried many of your recipes and use a few of your spices/rubs. Holy Cow is my favorite.

I've been doing this for years. Grated butter makes the world go round.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

I have to agree. Just like biscuits.

[@jokervienna6433]

A Swede here, just wanting to share what my grandmother did. I grew up in a farmer family, and my grandfather hunted a lot. It meant we basically always had moose meat around. Moose meat is very dry, especially if it comes from an old bull. Basically the only way to use that meat was to make it into burgers. So, my grandmother mixed the meat in the "normal Swedish way", but when she fried them, she´d put a slice of real butter on top of every patty (the butter slice was basically as big as the patty itself) and let it melt down into the moose patty. Very tasty stuff!

[@jokervienna6433]

Another thing we do in Sweden is to mix minced pork and beef in a 50/50 ratio. Not sure it is allowed to be called a burger, because a burger should be 100 percent beef (I think). Anyways, you get a lot of fat from the pork and it tastes great. In Swedish it is called "pannbiff".

[@gunsrgood6006]

80/20 ground chuck then mix in ground sirloin add high fat butter (Pine River Dairy) Cheeze must be Chedder (Hennings) on a Sheboygan hard roll toasted of course. Top with whatever you want.

I suspect that if you freeze these patties, you can cook them on a grill grate. Then you will get smoke flavor. BTW, I have an Earthtech Yeti 1400 that I use for my CPAP. Great products.

73/27 is my favorite! I made an amazing burger a few days ago. I'm a carnivore though so, I didn't have a bun or any veggies. I put beef bacon & feta cheese in the center of my patties then cooked it in my cast iron skillet. 😋

Great video Matt! Love the recipe & the cook was amazing. Here in Canada, all ground meat must be cooked to 165F in restaurants. However, at home I tend to do medium if I can trust the source. I do love burgers down south where you tend to grind your own meats. Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks for sharing this! I have been wondering about making butter burgers. I like to use the Holy Cow with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and onion powder in mine grilled on the pellet grill. It makes some of the best burgers I've ever had. I need to get a cast iron skillet to grill them on instead of the grates because I love the crust on burgers as well. I, too do a 5oz burger. That's the perfect size. Half pound is just too big. The key with burgers is medium high heat and quick otherwise they get tough and chewy and dried out.

[@MeatChurchBBQ]

[@bradbertram7596]

I've never thought about incorporating frozen butter into the grind. That's actually pretty genius. PS you didn't get the crust you wanted because the griddle wasn't hot enough. Plus, by the looks of it, that Traeger had real trouble recovering from the shock of a full load. Looked like you were basically boiling it. Honestly, not a great look for that piece of equipment. I'd bet if you took that grind, dropped it to around 1/5, maybe 1/4 pound and did a double-layered smash burger on a screaming hot griddle you'd melt your brain. (Been cooking professionally over 30 years. I'm going in and experimenting tomorrow for sure lol.)
