Best Hamburgers

Combine
• 1 lb Lean Ground Beef
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 or 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
• 2 tsp Garlic (optional)
• Mix then divide into 4 4oz balls (use a scale).
• Form balls into Hamburger Patties

Cooking (Fresh or frozen, no difference)
• 400f Preheat BBQ
• 4 min for first side then flip
• 4 min for second side
• If toasting buns - top rack for final 2 minutes.

Other than flip and buns, do not open BBQ cover. You will have to experiment with the temperature for your BBQ. Ours works best a little under 400f

Easy to remember 4 oz - 4 min/side - 400f

Best Chips and the safest way to fry

• Cut your potatoes - we cut thin (bit bigger than McDonalds) and do not soak.
• Optional - Soak in cold salty water (about as salty as the sea) for about an hour.
  Drain chips and dry with tea towel
• Warm grease to 180-190f. SAFETY You should never add anything wet to hot grease. Note the temp is below the boiling point(212f) of water, therefore no boil/flare up!
• Add chips and cook for 10-15 min
• Turn temp up to 350f (leave chips on the burner)
• Cook 'till done, probably before you reach 350f
• When done shake well - Note: No salt in fryer or basket - salt does not dissolve in oil - salt will corrode(eat holes) your alum/steel pan.
• Tip chips into bowl lined with paper towel, if desired sprinkle with salt

Best BBQ tip

• Get a hand held digital meat thermometer. Most will find that they have been over cooking.
