I was at this greasy spoon diner thats been around since 1924. A real nice place actually. They boast they have the "best burgers around." So, I watched them make a burger.
The patties are fresh and made by hand.
They squirt this yellow tinted luquid on the griddle and fry the burger
They also put the buns on the griddle soaking the fat and yellow luquid
Okay, so heres my thoughts. Please let me know if you agree:
1- The burgers were tasty and juicy. I am going to assume they are a 70/30 blend? I noticed the meat was reaL RED in color when they took it out of the fridge. But it was also in a plastic baggy.
2- The yellow luquid is either BUTTER or LARD (Beef Talow). WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS? IF BUTTER, WHAT KIND? IS THERE A SPECIAL LUQUID GRIDDLE BUTTER?
3- This appears to be the way burgers were made in the 40's and 50's. Is this true?
