"Frozen patties aren't the budget option they seem. A 16-ounce pack of organic grass-fed beef from Whole Foods on Amazon runs $9.99, which breaks down to $2.50 each, compared to $2 per patty for fresh ground beef."
"Most pre-made frozen patties just taste plain bad. They cook up dense and compact, nothing like the tender, open crumb of fresh meat. Taste one back-to-back with a fresh patty, and the difference will be stark."
"Buy ground beef whenever you can. You'll save money, get quality patties that will give you tastier burgers. Shaping them takes about two minutes, and homemade versions will run circles around anything you'd grab off a supermarket shelf."
Frozen burger patties may seem convenient but are often more expensive and taste inferior to fresh ground beef. A 16-ounce pack of organic frozen patties costs $9.99, while a pound of fresh ground beef is $7.99. The difference in taste is significant, with frozen patties lacking the flavor and texture of fresh meat. Shaping fresh patties takes minimal time and results in a superior burger. For the best quality, purchasing ground beef from a butcher is recommended.
