Try A BUBBA Burger! (1 Viewer)

[Philip_G]

Usually I'll shop at super-walmart, no meat counter.
If I go to safeway, who wants something like $4 a pound for ground beef to begin with, *if* the counter is open they only sell the leanest, most expensive.

Beef is shredded differently in colorado than anywhere else I've ever lived, it comes out looking like a packet of ramen noodles rather than ground beef I'm used to, therefore I prefer the "beef in a tube" stuff for that, and price.

We have been eating them for years. They are the best.



At least you had a good burger Friday night...

We didn't tailgate for that one, since there were only 4 of us rather than the usual group of 12-15. It was a road game on a weekday, so we got down there just before kickoff.

But this coming Saturday, Bubba Burgers will be on the menu when we attempt to get back to .500 against UAB.

My friend is a huge turkey-burger freak. Swears up-and down that they're the shizzle. Personally I think they're very dry (as opposed to juicy), but do taste alot like beef patties. But for the price I'd just buy beef. Also, beef isn't a big deal to those of us on low-carb diets.

Hmmm. Figured this was one of those West-Coast things. But if I can get my hands on these supposedly acclaimed burgers at our local Meijer, I'm willing to give it a shot. We've got a new house, we could use a cookout to break it in. I'll try to keep an eye out for them next time I shop. Are they frozen, or what??

 

[Brian Johnson]

I assume they are, I don't think you're gonna find them in the cereal isle
I checked availability & here in Indiana it look's like Meijers & Wal-Mart carry them.
I'm going shopping tonight & going to see if they have any.
Sounds like dinner to me.
I guess my question is how much do these wonderful burgers cost? Hopefully I'll find out here in a few hours

I might pick some up for this weekend.

Do you guys season them?

[todbnla]

They are already pre-seasoned but to each his own, your actual mileage may vary. The really great thing about these is that their so easy, pop them on the grill frozen, turn one time and viola. Really nothing else needed.
Except maybe a really cold brew, should we start a thread about our fav bottle beer? We just discovered Tequiza, anyone drink it before, really good if you like a lime taste.

We don't have a charcoal grill. Can I throw these on the George Foreman grill that we never use?

 

[John Alvarez]

You can but I don't think the Foremans really cook beef all that great. I like it for chicken. You can pick up a cheap propane table top grill for about 15 bucks that take the little canisters. Then you can use it for the beach etc...

 

[Nathan_R]

Rob, you can cook them in a skillet, as well.

 

[Brian Johnson]

Bad news from Indiana, my local Wal-Mart didn't have them. :frowning:
I guess I can try Meijers next time I go shopping.

I did buy some Topps Brand 1/3lb patties. So unless Bubba burgers put crack or something in their burgers I shouldn't taste a difference...... right??




Word of advice, don't read the "Fat per serving" label

 

[Philip_G]

does walmart usually carry them?
I would think that if one did all would :frowning:

 

[John Alvarez]

I don't usually buy food where I buy motor oil and toilet scrubbers...
Around these parts it's Publix, Winn Dixie, Food Lion or Albertsons. Most stores if you ask for them they will oreder them for you.

 

[Philip_G]

can't help it, it's so damn cheap compared to safeway or king sooper's (kroger).

but their meat can be sucky at times.

 

[Chris Lockwood]

The Foreman grill does a fine job with Bubba burgers.

 

[JamesED]

I had the same result tonight when I checked Wal-Mart here.

 

[teapot2001]

I got the original burgers at Vons today for $8.99. They were pretty good but need some seasoning.

[Mark Pfeiffer]

Was in Meijer tonight and noticed these burgers. I recalled this thread and figured I'd give 'em a shot. Picked up a box of six with onions for $6.99. Good although I probably should have cooked it a little longer.

 

[teapot2001]

I had some cooked leftovers from last night and found them to be tastier today by microwaving them after having been stored in the refrigerator. I've also found this to be the case with hot dogs. Is it just me or do you guys feel the same?
