So it sounds great Ken.  I love a good burger.  I like the cook in cast iron thing too.  BUT why do you need a pan to flatten the meat into a burger?  Just a fun cool thing to do?  And I can see that.

It was OK.....basically tasted like a pan fried burger. I still like a good burger on the grill better. I might not have had the pan hot enough to get a real good char.

Anyone made these this way themselves?

[mike89]

You want it really flat. Like an 1/8 in thick, yet hold it's shape.
