Hearty Hamburger Patties | Large Family Freezer Meals
Thick and hearty burgers for those times when nothing but a burger will do.
Ingredients
- 10 lbs ground beef
- 4 TBSP garlic powder
- 6 TBSP paprika
- 4 TBSP cumin
- 4 TBSP parsley
Instructions
- Mix burgers with all spices in a very large bowl.
- Shape into thick patties. (I got 27 burgers from my 10 lbs of ground beef)
- Layer between sheets of freezer paper or parchment paper on a cookie sheet and flash freeze.
- Store patties in freezer bags until ready to cook.
- Grill, pan fry, or oven bake burgers.
- For baking, set the oven to 375* and bake burgers for 30 minutes.
- Flip burgers and cook for 15 more minutes or until internal thermometer reaches 185*.
Notes
I usually put these in the oven for the last hour of our read-aloud time in order to contain the mess and so I don't have to keep tending to them. Line your pan with double layers of aluminum foil to make clean-up much easier!
