Ask your local butcher to grind these cuts in a mincer for you, ideally through a medium—small mincer die.

Ingredients

  • 400 g shoulder steak, minced
  • 230 g short rib, minced
  • 50

Method

Mix together the steak, short rib and minced beef fat and weigh it into eight 85g balls. On a piece of clingfilm brushed with a little vegetable oil, flatten each ball into a patty about 1 to 2cm thick. I like a thinner burger, double-stacked. Cover with baking parchment and wrap tightly with clingfilm, then keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Remove the burgers from the fridge at leas
