Precooked hamburger patties
I found some of these today at Safeway. What a time saver! The meat was
really lean and they were quite good. I had been buying patties and making them myself. Yeah, I know patties are easy to make but I don't like to handle meat. I needed something for myself to eat on those days when I am making stuff for Angela and my husband that I can't eat. These will do! |

These will do! Out of curiosity, what is their cost per pound? I have seen pre-cooked bacon at around $24 per pound, which is a very hefty premium for the convenience, and wondered if there is a similar cost for 'them' to do the cooking. -- I'm glad my Mom named me Aaron, That's what everybody calls me. |

I don't remember. I don't pay a lot of attention to prices, but the were about the same as for raw patties. > > I have seen pre-cooked bacon at around $24 per pound, which is a very > hefty premium for the convenience, and wondered if there is a similar cost > for 'them' to do the cooking. I buy cooked at Costco. I don't mind paying more. I hate cooking bacon. |

They really do taste like very good steak, cook in 2 minutes a side in a cast iron frying pan, and are a staple of my diet. One of those with a hotted up 10oz box of frozen veg (or fresh equivalent this time of year), and I'm a happy diner. PP |

Did you check the ingredients to be sure there weren't any filler or flavor-enhancing ingredients? PP |

The problem I often have with the frozen raw burgers is that they stick together. I wind up having to try to cook them all at once and then they don't come out very well. |

Because of our food allergies, I ALWAYS check ingredients. Perhaps we are luckier than most because in this area there is a big demand for organic and natural foods. ALL of the stores in this area are carrying them now. Most have a huge organic food section but some have the organic foods integrated with the regular foods. The store where we do most of our shopping carries mainly organic foods with some regular foods mixed in. I've been told it is comparable to Whole Foods but with better prices. |
