All Natural Beef Burgers



Last night we grilled burgers using the Grazin’ Angus Acres all natural ground beef we bought at The Berry Farm. The burger was a bit on the drier side, so do not overcook these patties. Mrs. Freak requested skinny, smaller patties this time so that could also have led to the dryness. Anyway, they more than made up for this in taste. They had a rich deep beef flavor, more like a game meat than typical market meat. That packet shown in the previous post cost seven bucks and made 6 patties (four if you like your burger on the thicker side), which I think is worth is for this kind of quality local beef. Especially since the Freak Fam only has burgers about four times a year. I know I’ll be back for more. To learn more about this beef, check out Grazin' Angus Acres.

Hot Weekend Tip:
Artichokes are on sale for $1 each at Price Chopper! This is great since we all know they are usually a rip off selling anywhere from $2-$3 a piece! I’ve got mine all ready for sunday and will share one of my favorite ways to prepare them on my weekend update. Also, since you’re going to the Chopper to pick up artichokes anyway, you may be interested in T-Bone and Porterhouse steak at $6.99 a pound. It may not be Grazin' Angus Acres, but it's a good price.
