Love the site. Love the Pit. Love the book. But need some help!!
Looking through the site and the book, and there's no tips or direction for making a "normal" sized burger. I know the steakhouse burger would be delish, but I don't want a honking ball of a burger every time. On the flip side, the only other burger recepies are for diner burgers, super thin and made on a griddle insert. I don't have one of those yet, and don't want em that thin.
So, help a common man out! What's the best temp/way to make a burger that's in between the sizes presented here? Not a hockey puck or a smashed burger; more like ones that are around the size of the standard preformed ones you see at the store (I know very well not to cook those, I have 80/20 ground chuck ready to hand form to roughly that size). Direct heat? Indirect? 350, maybe 400?
Trying to figure it out in time for lunch stomach's growling but the chuck still needs another 30 to defrost!
