Could a hamburger be cooked in bacon grease?

[Fritzo]

You can, but the outside may scortch before the inside gets to temperature. bacon grease cooks things fast.

Infused olive oil is a favorite of mine if I feel like an exotic burger

Hmmm, good point, maybe I'll have to keep it on low heat and slow-cook it.

Seriously, just thought of this a moment ago. I cooked my eggs this morning in the grease of freshly cooked bacon, as I always do. I wonder if I could do the same with a beef patty? What do you think?

OMG can it?! It SHOULD be.

If you've ever had a burger at a diner or similar greasy spoon, most likely it was cooked on the griddle and that griddle was pretty much covered with grease from the bacon they've cooked that day.

if you have never cooked at a place like this, you probably dont know they clean the grills often, which would make this a nonissue unless you ordered a beef patty with your breakfast. the breakfast to lunch switch includes cleaning (and usually scrubbing) the grill to make sure you dont taste eggs and bacon in your club sammich they toast on there. i was a cook for a while, never seen a place that didnt do it. hell, even carls jr did it when i was in high school and cooked breakfast. i hated... hated to clean the grill there. everyday at 11am.

What proportion do you use for that?

My grandmother always kept the bacon "drippings" as she called it, in a tupperware container in the fridge. She would use it instead of oil any time she cooked. Nothing like grandma's cooking !

Think I should cook the bacon in butter?

No, just mold the burger meat around an entire stick of butter.

Well, these are preshaped frozen patties, not what I would handmake from ground beef. Maybe I'll just set a stick of butter atop the patty while it cooks. Then when I flip the patty, it'll cook in the butter/bacon grease mix while I set the cheese atop the patty.

I cook most things in bacon grease. There is nothing better.

Of course. And it is very tasty.

Use two patties and sandwich the stick in between them, to maintain structural integrity secure the apparatus with liberally applied thick bacon

I wonder if I could somehow work MSG into this? Or Canadian Bacon?

I've actually tasted pure MSG salt. took a field trip to an amino acids factory in my high school Japanese class (Ajinomoto was the company--our teacher felt that it was appropriate). They passed around pure MSG in a little bottle. I put some on my tongue...oddly enough, it tastes like Chinese take-out.

I believe in God, and buttering my bacon, and baconing my sausage, and a magical animal that produces all three of bacon, pork, and ham.

I have a bottle of msg at my cabin. They used to sell it as a spice back in the day.
