View Full Version : Let's get fat, with Matt?

Anyone else on SaxP enjoy cooking? I find it massively therapeutic to chuck myself in the kitchen on a night and cook up something tasty. Tonight, the wife is at work on 24hr shift, so it's an excuse for a Man V. Food-esque cook-in, here's how to make my Reverse Bacon Double Cheeseburgers. It's a bit misleading, because it's not a double burger (thank god) but it is double cheese!
First we need us some ingredients. Here we've got some beef steak mince, some bacon, some double gloucester cheese (others are available), some wholegrain mustard, an egg, some black peppercorns and some garlic, all we need for a really basic burger mix.
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/Ingredients_zps37fcec93.jpg
First we want to pound up some black peppercorns, you can use a grinder if you like, I like the burgers peppery, and this is a far easier way to do it:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/GroundPepper_zps24cb5a3a.jpg
Then basically we want to lash all the burger ingredients in a bowl to mix up. Here we have the steak mince, the egg yolk (binds it together, bin the white) ground peppercorns, crushed garlic cloves, dollop of wholegrain mustard, bit of salt, dash of cayenne pepper as I like a bit of kick, then literally mash it all up together.
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerPreMix_zps19a04eda.jpg
You should end up with this:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerMix_zps4c19ed54.jpg
Next you want to shape out 4 very thin beef patties from the mix, like this:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BeefPatties_zpsf15f49cf.jpg
Many thinzzz:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BeefThinz_zps75cb42e4.jpg
Chop a few rashers of bacon up thinly:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/ChoppedBacon_zpsd06a342b.jpg
Then drop a little bit of butter in a pan for colour, and gently fry the bacon until it goes crispy:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/FriedBacon_zpsda96fb3e.jpg
Pop the bacon to one side, draining into the pan as you remove it, but don't ditch the pan, use the bacon fat to fry some onion up for the burgers:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/FryOnions_zps141fc4ce.jpg
Finely grate some of the cheese, then make a small smoked bacon and cheese parcel inside of half the burger patties:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerPrep_zpsf7359cf1.jpg
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerPrepCloseUp_zps75595295.jpg
You then want to overlay the other pattie, to enclose the cheese/bacon parcel:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerTop_zpsb6ae257a.jpg
Press the edges together and shape these into burgers with your hands, then rub them in olive oil for cooking:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerOil_zps52982b21.jpg
Preheat your pan for cooking the burgers, I like to use a ceramic steak pan as you can preheat it gently to build the heat while you make the burgers, and get it searing hot before you cook. I have it literally smoking before I drop the burgers in, to give the chargrilled finish:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerChargill_zps8eeda779.jpg
Having pre-heated your oven to 250C ish, whip the cooked burgers off onto a tray, and pop the last of the grated cheese over them:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerWithCheese_zpsb95beaad.jpg
Pop them in the oven, while the cheese melts, prep your burger buns. I quite like using breakfast muffins, toasted with french mustard and ketchup on them. You can add salad to make yourself feel better. Remove the burgers as soon as the cheese has melted and pop them into the prepared buns, then lash the fired onions on top before you pop the lids on:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerMeltedCheese_zps5072b78e.jpg
Pop the tops on with any extra fillings of your choice and you're good to go:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerAssembly_zps3e03ce48.jpg
When you chomp into them, you should have a tasty burger, with an oozy cheesy melted centre with smoked bacon, ala:
http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x297/D4MJT/Burgers/BurgerComplete_zps49e8f7fb.jpg
They're probably not a great choice if you're trying to get thin, or avoid heart problems, but fuck it, they taste amazing and they can't be any less healthy than a kebab post session at the weekend. You can add anything you like the burger mix to sex it up, capers, spice etc, some blue cheese would be decent with a splash of jack daniels in the burger mix...
Anyhoot, have a shot, they're awesome! :y:

Impressive culinary skills there fella.
I do love cooking fortunately as I have no choice with living on my own.
Typically my meals are prettty bland and simple in comparison such as fajitas, chilli, stir fry etc.
Unless I'm having a night in with friends which normally comprises of a some kind of ready steady cook style night with whatever ingredients are to hand, one of them is a waitress at nandos so I have limitless supplies of piri piri sauces and the other works as a manager at a supermarket so she gets me limitless supplies of discounted meats.. it makes for a good friendship.
I cook all my meals at night for the next day usully whilst cooking my evening meal, I quite enjoy that noe as it's routine which involves measuring out all my carbs, fat and protein etc.that takes more effort than the cooking really as it's a matter of boiling brown rice and veg, and grilling chicken.

True that, I'm about to get back into a "being good" routine, hence the burgers. It's all about cooking your bait the night before. I try to cycle to work when I can, so it makes life much easier.
Do you rock spicy stuff then? I've got a few recipes I can lash up over the next few weeks for spicy bits that are decent. My problem is when I'm being good I get bored, as I love tasty food. Thus I've started doing things like tandoori chicken, pork and potato vindaloo etc. They can be as spicy as you like, but it makes non fatty mundane foods more interesting.
Can't beat a naughty thai green curry on the odd weekend!

Love spicy food mate, hook me up.
I often find myself eating something like...
sweet potato, grilled chicken, green beans, broccoli, carrots and then I'll just have some hot pepper sauce or lime pickle or something completely random on to give it some kick and reduce the blandness.
I often find myself getting thru jars of jalapenos etc. Just to livin up my veg a bit.
Massive fan of pink salt now to, brings the taste in stuff out when your eating the sane stuff day in day out.
MANNN I want one of those burgers now though!

Last night I made baked quails eggs. Basically wilted spinach in a ramakin bowl, with prosciutto ham, then covered in a cheese sauce made from double cream and melted emmental and gruyere, with a quails eggs cracked in the top, grated parmesan sprinkled and then baked.
That, sadly was the starter.

If you're measuring your macros, minus the buns that's actually pretty protein dense. I could eat that.
This is the sort of stuff I need to be making, I'm struggling to hit my protein because I'm not a mega eater, but I'm training too hard not to be eating properly.
I measure out all my food weekly- mass cook chicken in fajita stuff etc and freeze it at work. Take one box out a morning, its ready for heating up by lunch. Chuck some rice / noodles/cous cous/ a wrap in and I'm ready for mega NOMz.
My cheat day fajitas are epic though.

I absolutely love cooking, hate cleaning up though. It definitely makes sense to clean as you go on! If I cook and leave the washing up it's doomed to lay around til the next morning lol.
I usually experiment with cooking, and seem to have a nact when it comes to flavour. The last fatty nice thing I cooked was Hunters chicken, last weekend. I eat better in the week lol.
No pics but basically,
Chicken breast fillets pan fried
Red Leicester cheese or something with a little kick not too strong to over power
Wiltshire thin smoked backon rashers
Jack daniels bbq sauce
I also do layering like you do which is funny. I like a wholesome meal lol.
Sweet n salty chunky kick chips - basically sweet potatoes pan fried seasoned with rock salt fresh ground pepper and a slight hint of paprika.
It's very tasty. Definitely not healthy. I'd often opt for Harvester BBQ however I'm getting slightly bored of it and thought I'd give the JD sauce a go and boom tingaling tastes naaaaaaaaaice.

Shepherds is a more recent term, cottage pie used to be any meat, in like the 17/1800s
Then it shifted to cottage being beef and lamb being shepherds.

They are pretty decent for a cheap lob up, one vital ingredient missing though..... MEAT, and lots of it.
