Thanksgiving dinner in every bite.
Thanksgiving dinner soup gruel.
It has the rest of my dressing cream style corn potato celery turkey thigh carrots and the rest of the cranberries and the rest of the giblets gravy.
It looks like gruel but tastes great.

Thanks Steve I fell off the turkey wagon.
How anyone could replace ground beef with ground turkey is beyond me.
But some like it and to each their own.

Worth, We went out to dinner the other night and as I was walking by a lady's table I noticed her hamburger... it looked like yours but yours is a baby compared to hers... If I could have measured it I am sure it was an inch thick and 6" across. It stuck out around the bun (which was already huge) by an inch... wowsers, it was a whopper. I wondered how much of it she could have eaten sitting there.

Carolyn I have cut back I used to make giant hamburgers with one pound of meat.
The burger you see is 5 inches across with 1/2 pound of ground chuck and about 6 inches tall.
The plate is huge.
I bet the woman's burger was an 8 incher.

The picture is blurry, but this is why I always tape the seed packs down when I send seeds in trade/swap. The rip is large enough for a coin envelope to fall out.

First fry medium low simmer second fry 3/4 medium high almost smoking.
First fry no browning just cooked.
Second fry is when you shock and brown them at high heat.
The fries were a little less than 1/4 to 1/4 square.
Fry the fries the first time pull out and set aside.
Cook hamburger patty and make burger as you or then fry the fries the second time.
If you do it while you are making the burger you might burn the fries.

My guess on the temp is 200 to 250 the first time and 350 or so the second time.
That second time you want the oil to be shimmering and just a hint of smoke coming off of it.
I used the dreaded soybean oil but have used homemade lard, peanut oil, olive oil and beef tallow.

One more thing you toast the bun and brush a little beef fat in the top.

Thanks for the info. It looks like a great meal. I rarely deep fry stuff because the cleanup and what to do with the oil. I feel like it wouldn't keep with the infrequency in which I fry and then the oil is a waste of money. But looking at those fries makes me want to go out and get some potatoes and oil.

I go on a frying binge use up the oil and get off of it for a while.
The oil will keep for a real long time.
You can always put it in a jar and refrigerate if you want or even freeze.
I was so sick and tired of turkey I ate 4 hamburgers in four days.

I have been neglecting the thread.
Here is my latest concoction.
Take a wild guess what it is.
After a while I will post the before and after pictures.

It looks like citrus with chili powder and powdered sugar sprinkled on it.
