Bbq Burgers

[Chipchopper]

To make sure they are thoroughly cooked, is it a good idea to partially microwave them first ?.
If so how long for ?.

TIA..

No

[ummmm]

No...def not.

[Islay]

No yuck it will give it a nasty taste!
If you are really worried you could partially cook in the oven but really no need for it

[ummmm]

Are they fresh burgers?

[kvalidir]

No just bung them on the grill, they'll be grand :)

[New Judge]

No need.

Doesn't matter if they are a bit rare. You could even have "burgers tartare".

I was in Newark NJ a while ago and when I ordered a turkey burger, the server said "How would you like it cooked?" I resisted the urge to say that I would like it with copious amounts of Salmonella if that's OK.

When I have been it France, although I wanted to, I never plucked up the courage to try Steak Tatare.

[ummmm]

NJ...tatare is fillet steak, not burgers.

[ummmm]

I'd eat it, Jack, without hesitation.

[237SJ]

I wouldn't eat anything Tatare. I don't fancy the idea of getting a tapeworm

[Old_Geezer]

I would doubt the wisdom of eating minced meat tartare.

[Arksided]

mmm burgers...

"NJ...tatare is fillet steak, not burgers."

Yes I do know that. I was simply making a comparison. Provided they are made of decent minced beef and not of "mechanically reclaimed material or material steamed from a carcass" there is no need to worry if your burgers are a little on the underdone side.

[ummmm]

Sorry...reading my answer, NJ, it sounds a bit patronising.

OG...it's not minced beef tartare is made with. It's fillet steak and you're meant to chop it yourself. It's not put through a grinder.

Thank you.
We enjoyed them yesterday.
