Preparing burgers for a group can mean shaping each patty by hand and finding a way to keep them from sticking together. The Mr. Bar-B-Q Hamburger Press combines a patty mold with a lidded storage container, so patties can be formed and stacked in the same setup.
Eight separating discs sit between the patties as they are layered, helping keep portions apart in the fridge or freezer. The press also includes a quick-release insert, while its non-stick surface helps patties lift out with less tearing during batch preparation.
The discs do more than separate the patties. They can be layered to help create consistent rounds and adjust the thickness, whether the plan is a standard burger or thinner patties for a flat-top meal. Pressing the meat into thin, even rounds also suits smash burgers, where a steady press helps create crisp edges as the patty sears.
There is room for more than one burger style here. The mold can make smaller sliders or stuffed patties with a repeatable shape, which is useful when preparing a mixed spread for a cookout. Once the patties are formed, the container keeps the stack together until it is time to cook.
