Not showing online, but Morrisons have an offer on their butcher counter hand made steak burgers.
Usually 8 for £6, but on offer at only 8 for £2.97. Slightly, well just under half price.
Worth a look in your local stores.

Give as good as I get, if others choose to get aggravated and confrontation with facts posted by myself then obviously I am going to use the word 'flaming', in fact this is exactly what you have done yourself in your post here. Let me remind you that personal insults are not allowed on this forum.
Ironically, this 'halfwit' with 'minor intelligence' got VIP recognition on here for posting deals and being helpful and knowledgeable.

There’s two types of mince – beef or steak. The steak mince is still beef but comes from particular cuts of the carcass. Beef mince however, is a collection of trimmings collected during the butchery process.
Whilst a beefburger can contain beef trimmings alongside steak cuts, a [steak burger] is ground, chopped or minced steak, plain and simple, how you are failing to understand the difference I do not know.
I really am totally done with talking to you now, on ignore you go...no loss to me, your contribution to HUKD is minimal, 3 deals in 4.5 years, legendary.

A steak is a cut of beef of varying types cut into slices and fried, grilled or braised normally, a steak burger using the American term, and that's what we copy in the UK is a thicker burger than the patty type as found in fast food type of burger and can consist of various cuts of beef and is not confined to trimmings, there is not enough trimmings to provide all the mince sold.

Wrong, as I have said many times in this thread, beef mince is trimmings, steak mince is minced steak from cuts of the carcass, we are not talking about cuts of steak we are talking about it in minced form at least here in Britain.
Now if you examine the image for this thread, presuming you have gone to Specsavers, you are not seeing a formed "patty" out of a slice of cattle carcass aka 'steak' you are seeing it in minced form.
As stated [here] hence why any old crap of trimmings go into economy burgers.
soldierboy001
4 Nov 16#81
As different types of beef can be made into steak the term beef steak can and does refer to any cut of meat, for instance one famous restraunt in America uses brisket in it's " Steakburgers ". The term steak refers to a thin slice of beef and you want to see how thin they can be in Spain.

So if steak mince is not a legally binding term anyone can use beef mince instead and claim they are "steak burgers" meaning Morrisons obviously can get away with using beef trimming scraps and palming that off as "steak burgers"
I never claimed to have a source, just an assumption that "steak burgers" would be minced steak rather than minced beef as you would expect them to, I also never made any assumption about the fat content of alleged steak or for that matter which part of the cattle Morrisons have used, or for that matter anything legally binding :neutral_face::smirk:

I have not asked about the deal, which you did not post. I asked about your claim re "steak mince", and merely asked for a source.
Steak mince is a non legally binding term (as opposed to lean) & steak mince can contain up to 20% fat. Better to stop spreading poor info. (Try here (links to PDF))
cicobuff
3 Nov 16#76
You have just joined up to ask me a question on a deal I have not posted. If these burgers did not contain steak mince and are labelled as steak burgers then Morrisons would be in nearly as much trouble as the Tesco horse meat burger scandal.
Try asking at the butcher counter at your local Morrisons, sure they would tell you which cuts of the carcass the mince is from. If however they are beef trimmings that are minced then they should not be labelled as steak burgers.

TBH, Quorn quarter pounders are pretty tasty (the standard smaller burgers less so however)

A good burger should have about 30% Fat
Steak is lean.
So something must be added to these.
I make my own. 2kg Chuck (with Fat), 250g ribeye steak & around 400g Pork Fat (depends on how fatty the chuck is - but I just eyeball it, rather than be specific by weight).
Minced 3 times - twice coarsely & once on medium. Pork fat acts as binding agent.

all burgers require some kind of binding agent, and the morrisons burger mix is full of flavour so are far better than mince squashed together that will fall apart and just taste like....mince

The problem with most (maybe all) steak mince you can buy is that the fat content is too low for a nice burger. I prefer a burger with about 18-20% fat in the beef.
Good deal for steak mince though, would be ideal for meatballs or even a bolognese.

I didn't change my story and I'm not trolling, unless I'm mistaken and I'm posting on a Morrison Counter Burger Fan Club site. Maybe you could set one up.
They do include cereal, I don't care if you believe me or not, go buy them and enjoy them if that's your thing, it's a good price if you don't care about the texture/taste.
cicobuff
3 Nov 16#47
Oh I see, love the way you keep changing your story.
How about you go and troll elsewhere unless you have proof that firstly these contain cereals (most likely), and secondly more relevantly whether they do or not at this price could you buy steak mince and add binders and make them for the same price, or even sacrifice the binders and make them cheaper? Your argument for buying cheaper beef mince does not really hold up.
Simply your input here is invalid, whilst the product heat continues to increase.

I made a mistake mentioning Byron, I have never been but was advised they did proper burgers. I'll make sure I continue to give them a miss. Unless of course those ingredients are in the bun at Byron?
andrewmp
3 Nov 16#45
I've never been to Byrons so I'll take your word for it. 5 Guys and Fat Hippo use no such thing though and I've been to both of them. Enjoy your beef/cereal meatloaf in the shape of a burger.
cicobuff
3 Nov 16#44
Byron's burger sound similar (without actually listing beef content)
I can't prove it, but they do, I've had them before and it's immediately obvious in the texture. Go to Byrons/5 Guys/Fat Hippo etc and you'll see the difference in texture between a burger with filler/binder and a 100% minced beef burger.
I'm not saying they're not cheap, but you can certainly make something that tastes a lot better for about the same price. Every single other burger they sell including their "The Best - Scotch Beef Burger" has cereal and additives - for example
Or just buy 1kg of 18-20% fat mince for about £3 and taste the difference. Enjoy your cereal, lovely.

3 Nov 161#38
It was only yourself that was stating that they contain cereal, have you proof that the butcher counter steak burgers contain cereal? Neither am I debating the fact that you would not want fat in them or even stated that you would be using extra lean steak mince.
Bearing in mind these are half price currently, and bearing in mind it has to be steak mince for it to be labeled as steak burgers does not alter the fact I originally questioned you on the ability to obtain steak mince for £3 a KG regardless of its quality.
The only way you would be able to is if you dropped lucky in the clearance corner of your local supermarket after a heavy markdown due to shelf life date.
But Mr Hillary Briss you are very welcome to your "special stuff" beef mince burgers sold in your own butchers shop.

It doesn't matter what qualifications you have, the only way you could make a better tasting burger for a similar price would be if you cut off one of your legs and turned it into mince, flattened it into a pattie and then fried it.

You want meat with a fairly high fat content in burgers anyway. What you don't want is lower fat "steak mince" and a load of cereal and binders. I thought this country had started to turn the corner when it comes to burgers, cereal has no place in a burger pattie.
cicobuff
3 Nov 162#28
I am not debating that they would not taste better, I am debating that it would be impossible to buy steak mince, even if they added cereal for £3 in that quantity for the price they are on offer for here. Anybody that says they can make their own for less than this is wrong, plain and simple.
cicobuff
3 Nov 16#27
They could not label these as "steak burgers" if they did not contain "steak mince". The cheapest "mince" you can find is high fat content "beef mince"
andrewmp
3 Nov 16#26
You wouldn't need 1kg of "steak mince". You'd need about 700g of the cheapest "mince" you could find if you wanted to replicate these burgers. I wouldn't have them for nowt though. You can easily get 700g of mince for £3.

You don't. Chuck steak is usually about £7 a kilo but you'd know what you were getting if you bought them and grinded your own mince making them a billion times better than shop bought...
