Bumping this thread as people need to know this:
The Eddie Rockets Bun/Lettuce option when ordering online is not "A bun with or without lettuce". Its a Bun thats made Of lettuce.
Ordered online and when we opened up the burger boxes there was no fcuking Buns!!
Of course its only when one orders a lettuce burger in error and tries to imagine who in their right fcuking mind orders a burger without a bun that the answer becomes apparent. Fcuking "My homeopathist told me I'm gluten intolerent" gobsh!tes.
....and they were fcuking freezing cold. Seems that always tipping the delivery drivers gets you no preferential 'first of the run' deliveries.
I'm sucking this one up and simply never ordering from Eddie Rockets again. Lettuce Buns were our fault I guess because we didn't take into account that burger joints cater to the anti-gluten gobsh!ite brigade. Freezing burgers were their fault. The problem was, that unless the management refunded me no quibble without any arguement within the first few seconds, I'd likely have had a meltdown and hit someone.

Buy mincemeat, burger bun,potatoes.
Scrunch meat up into suitable ball and flatten.
Peel potatoes, chop into wedges toss in oil.
Cook wedges in oven for 30 minutes, turn occassionally.
Fry burgers for 16 minutes turning once.
Toast bun under grill.
Add onions, cheese, tomato sauce to taste.
It's not rocket (leaf) science.0 -

We do actually make our own homemade burgers in this house more than the equal of Eddie Rockets. Just didn't feel like cooking today.
Pretty much as you described.
I hate when I read about all the 'binding agents' people mention in recipes. No need whatsoever. You just need mince with a high enough fat content both for taste and binding. Homemade burgers is the one thing where you shouldn't buy the more expensive 5% fat round steak mince.
What I do is lay down some greaseproof paper. I also make a 6x12inch sheet folded in half. I used to just heave in all the mince into a mixing boil and add sea salt and black pepper and mix and knead and make balls. However I found that the burgers could end up the consistency of a frozen Big Als when cooked. ie. Over kneaded. What I started doing instead, was open the packets of mince. Sprinkle the sea salt and black pepper over the rectangular slab while still in the tray. Cut the slab of mince with a knife into portions. (Every burger is identical size now whereas grabbing lumps and making balls was more of a guestimation game) I then grab a portion slab and plonk it on the GP paper. Tossing it around to mix the seasonings as opposed to kneading it. One is breaking up the tubes of mince alright but not kneading the mince into a mince paste. Its over kneading to a mince paste that makes the final burger end up like a poxy Big Als. I then grab the loose mince and seasoning mix ball and plonk it on the folded GP paper sheet. Fold over the sheet over top. Rolling pin the burger into a patty. Start next one. Tried the Patty Press thingings and they over compact the patties making for a tough burger. Rolling pin to get it flat works for me without over compacting the mince.
Fry 'em dry on the pan and most of that fat comes out anyway but while its inside the burger its imparting taste and keeping the burger bound till it sears on the outside.
Nice toasted floury baps and usual garnishes.
Lovely.
While we're real chip lovers, when having homemade burgers we do labour save and just use McCains Frozen French Fries. We make our own eddie Rockets like condiment. 2 parts salt to one part pepper to one part paprika.0 -

Hero.Absolutely right.
And Jamie Oliver has a recipe for burgers in today's Sunday Times which also just uses minced beef.
I have also been known to cheat and use McCains stringy fries.0 -

Never ceases to amaze me alright. Remember my aunts running app posting to her facebook to say she'd just finished her 10k and had used 550 calories or something. Said to myself, "It would have been a lot easier to have just said no thank you to the cream donut"
It also came to mind reading yesterdays papers where several ran the story about restaurants and chefs complaining about the new regulations for calories on menus. Reminded me of a study from the states where diners were given one of 3 different menus. One without calories listed, one with calories listed and one with a description of various exercises needed to burn off the calories from the menu item but without the actual calorie figure listed. Portion sizes ordered were monitored. Those with the calorie menus ordered slightly smaller portions but those patrons who got the menus with the exercises drastically reduced the portion sizes they ordered.
ie. 200 press ups, 1 hour on the treadmill and 45 minutes on the fcuking spinning machine!!!!!!! Fcuk that!!!! I'll have a bowl of lettuce please 0
