Making hamburger better

[lynn from mo]

Does anyone know how to make lean hamburger better by adding tomato juice ( and maybe something else???) when the butcher grinds and wraps it?

Better as in flavor only?
Do you still have to retain the lean quality?
-Add a bit off ground pork or pork sausage if you are not worried about the "lean factor".

Never heard of adding tomato juice to hamburger. I'd go with some mild sausage as previously suggested.

For us, our ground beef tastes good..."Longhorn beef"...actually has a flavor ;-)

That aside, for variety we will use any of following when cooking:

• 1. Teriyaki Sauce
  2. Lemon Pepper
  3. BBQ Sauce
  4. Mix diced green peppers & onions with beef before cooking
  5. Onion gravy mix

To make hamberger better just wait till the critter is 4-5 years old before butchering. If you like the flavor of beef you'll love the burger
