Mo_Steel posted:Is there a decent way to cook these without a grill? I like a good burger but I have not had much luck broiling them in the past; they become very inferior steamed hams, and the George Foreman grills become a mess of grease. cook them in a pan? cooking burgers in a hot cast iron pan is superior to cooking them on a grill anyway

also the pro burger costco move isn't to buy their premade frozen patties, it's to buy their choice meats and grind your own (some brisket, some shortrib, some sirloin...) i have a costco chuck roast in the sous vide right now for dinner tomorrow night

off work today, made a run to the 'co with my mother-in-law highlights: a shitload of peanuts for $5, jelly beans, an enormous cake for an office birthday party for $16, two great looking chuck roasts for $32, san marzano whole peeled tomatoes for $6, and two san marzano tomato pastes for $4 ![]() ![]() just trimmed all the fat off one of the chuck roasts and popped it into a sous vide bath

costco chuck roast, 24 hours later:![]() chuck roast, 18 hours at 137, went in with just salt, finished with salt/pepper/garlic powder and seared in ghee extensively trimmed the original roast and then tied it with twine pretty incredible. tenderness of prime rib.

went in to buy a hammock, didn't find one but ended up spending $271 -- $80 for an 8 months of flea/tick treatment for the dog (an excellent deal), 30 lb bag of lump charcoal, some choice strip steaks, some carrots, a giant super soft pillow that looks like a bunny got a slice of pizza for some reason and it was loving gross. sorry

cross postin' lovely picture of leftovers: both were cooked at 127f and finished on a charcoal chimney top is a choice new york strip (FROM COSTCO!) bottom is a 28 day dry aged grass fed 'prime equivalent' t bone it's probably blasphemy, but I definitely preferred the corn-fed strip (FROM COSTCO!). I've never loved dry aged beef, and the combination of dry aged and grass feed gave the beef a very odd taste. everyone else loved it though
