With spring on the horizon great tips. I don't use frozen patties but might have to try. Really like the 10 second sauce.

My friend at my burger cookout: "Eww, frozen burger patties? I was expecting fresh." Do you want your buns toasted? "Ewww, no... Who toasts hamburger buns?" Well, excuuuuuuuse me, Mister Know-it-not!"

I would have died without this channel after my divorce.You're providing more of a service than you'd ever know.

Well my dumbass has been trying to season frozen patties so this is a big help! Thanks

I started getting ground beef from my butcher shop and making 1/2 lb burgers & wrapping them in wax paper then put them in a freezer bag and put them in the freezer. Then they are ready to go anytime I want them. I grill them on a low flame, and only flip them once. They turn out fantastic!!!!

Yes to frozen when you have a hoard of people to feed but you still want to add your own touch to them. Great vid!

Me cooking frozen burgers while watching this: “mmmmm that’s right, accept my seasoning”

I’ve been drafted into frozen burger duty at my in-law’s cookouts so many times. The minute I walk in the door, they are like “hey, you know how to grill. Can you make the burgers and hot dogs?” Everything is always frozen. I am sure to use these tips to aid me in future. Thanks Ry.

20 burgers for 10 bucks is a steal

I grew up eating these frozen burgers my dad would make out on the grill on Sundays. It reminds me of your "don't do this to ribs video". I honestly haven't thought of those burgers in a while, and after watching this, I'm gonna get a bag of them and doctor them up just like your's and take a little stroll down memory lane so to speak. Awesome video as usual Ry!

I raise my own beef and usually get about 40 pounds of the ground beef turned into 1/4lb patties. They are frozen in boxes of 20 patties each. They work great when having parties at the farm and I need to feed a ton of people. So much of a time saver. Plus, since I raised the beef, I know exactly what goes into it. I usually make up a jar of my grill seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic, onion) and use that on the burgers, along with a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Great video!

Thanks a ton! I’m pretty proud of my thick homemade patties and that’s all I’ve ever done. I recently had to grill a bunch of thin cheap frozen patties that someone else brought over and knew they were going to be terrible. I did a quick search and found your video. Your ideas definitely made an improvement to what would have been a terrible burger. Actually ended up pretty decent. Thanks for the help!

I grew up on frozen hamburgers and I love them. I've been making mine this way all my life, except I'll put them in a frying pan just for even more added convenience. I like to keep fresh ground beef on hand but every once in awhile and doesn't get used before it goes bad and these are just nice to have in the freezer. 😋

Just getting ready to make some frozen burgers myself. Great tips my man!

The best burgers have no filler in them. I agree with you. Great tips. Cheers Ry!

Wow I tried it and what a difference adding salt and pepper even my wife commented how good they were and she didn’t know I added salt and pepper. Thanks for the video

I am making some frozen burger patties today but I have to cook them on the stove. However, I am gonna use your advice. Thank you soooooo much for sharing your knowledge. You definitely rock!!!!

Thanks for sharing Ry. I will make it tomorrow for dinner.

Thank you, thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to make this!!!!!!!!

I find that if you do season the frozen side, as it starts to cook through to the top, the seasonings blend into the burger nicely.

Bacon on bottom so tongue gets all the bacon flavour

Being a widower 90% of what I eat is frozen and microwaved or cooked in the oven *TOO MANY FOOLS ACT LIKE FROZEN SHOULD BE ILLEGAL*

I use ‘em in a pinch and I’ll try this technique from now on. But it’s gotta have lettuce, pickle, onion and tomato. Mustard optional 😋😋

You make great videos sir, very grounded with practical advice. I appreciate your time.

Great tips bro. Never really thought about buying frozen. But you can't go wrong doing it this way.

You nailed it with this video. Now I constantly do all my burgers like this now. Appreciate the info!

I hope this goes viral. Brilliant video, Ry. Frozen burgers aren’t ideal but I think we’ve all been there where they do fit the bill. Great advice 👍

First street from Smart and Final....one of my favorite stores...thanks for the post...

Great tips mate! Butchers here in Australia usually make their own burgers and they are awesome but like you said sometimes you only have frozen burgers and convenience wins sometimes! Looking forward to more tips!

Thank you!!! it's quick cheep and i can do it plus it's affordable for my family.

There is something to say about cooking over charcoal. The taste is the best! I don't like gas bbqs which seem to be the norm here in New Zealand. Thanks for this video.

I gotta say I'm thankful for finding this video, the tips really made a big difference on flavor. Good job!

Off topic but a big tip I suggest for grilled chicken thighs and legs for charcoal is indirectly cook until almost done and then sear. I have tried searing 1st then putting em indirect and I get mad flare ups as the skin renders a lot of fat. If you start indirect also you can add wood chips/chunks and close up the lid and kick back, you dont have to get up every 2 mins to make sure your skin isnt burning into charcoal. I actually learned this after getting into cooking by way of BBQ and then went to culinary school. A lot of time with frozen patties on the gas grill i sear about 3-4 per side and when there is still liquid flip em all a few times to get excess liquid off then move indirect, put on cheese and let em go for 10-15 mins. I have a 3 burner so right 2 are for searing (i can fit 8) and left is off. This is a great way if you cook for large groups. It is a rotational thint and ensures everyone gets a hot patty. Once the 8 are done searing, move to the burner side thats off, add cheese and then add 8 more to the searing (right 2 burner side) and by the time those 8 are seared up rotate the indirect 8 to a plate and keep up the same rotation. I (stupidly) volunteered to cook for my sons baby shower and 1st b day party and the baby shower i loaded up the whole gas grillband got flare ups so i had to shut it down and fix the problem. My sons 1st b day i used my charcoal grill and learned the direct and indirect and it was smooth running. I served about 40 people with zero issues except my charcoal was end of its life for the last batch

Great tips. Going to try these next time.

Who else mouth was watering when he was cooking the patties?

Thanks. Will try it tomorrow.

Great video! Thanks Ry.

Love it. :3 Thanks for the tips. I’m gonna try grillin some frozen burgers today!

I’ve been cooking for over 20 years and think you’re advice is diamonds!

Thank you! I’ll be doing this on top of the stove in a pan, using the same tips. Also, I now know the right frozen patties to use.

Hi Ry, thinner burgers are always the better tasting burgers. If you look at McDonald’s, their Pattie’s are pretty thin, about 1/4” thick. They just cook better this way. Sometimes less is more. When I make homemade burger Pattie’s, I make them 1cm thick, this gives them room to deflate as the fat burns off, then they wind up at 1/4” thick. Your burgers that you are using are perfect. I can’t get them here in Canada near me . They always make them too thick. To me, 3/4” is to thick to start out with. After all, McDonald’s sells more burgers than anywhere.

I have used a mix of olive oil and various seasoning to frozen burgers, then grilled them. The oil helps the seasoning stick to the frozen burger. It works for me,

Made them for my friend today. Excellent instruction. Thanks man!

Thanks, Ry. Your writing is fabulous. Thank you.

I've done that before but on cast iron and it works great! Excellent video! Cheer's

Thank you. Im about to do this, just waiting on my mom to come home !

great video! You are working hard and we are liking the videos

My job is having a cookout and is providing frozen patties and i offered to be grill master for the day but ive only every cookied patties from fresh! Thank you for this, i feel confident i can make a good burger for my employees now!

Very smart seasoning while it’s cooking instead of while it’s frozen👍. It shows that you know what you’re doing.

We love having Costco frozen patties in the freezer. If we forget dinner plans it’s easy and tasty

Thanks for the tips! Great info! :)

Thank You for video, now i know even frozen burger can be good burger, will make them soon👍👍👍

I love the convenience of frozen hamburgers, so I'll try these tips! Thank you!🍔🍔🍔🍟

Would love a video about how to best cook frozen burgers on the stove top. I checked your videos and you are a grill expert - but sometimes I just want a quick burger without firing up the grill. Love your videos!

I know you said "use what ever you want to use" but, I like what YOU use !

We’ve always used frozen patties at family get togethers. No one wants to make a ton of patties lol. You’re right about the ingredients. A lot of those have fillers so it’s good to read the ingredients as you stated.

Followed your tips and my burgers came out well! Thank you!

Just bought a new grill today, that's some solid advice on seasoning.

That looks so yummy! I love the sauce tip as well. The burger deserves a better bun though.

Love the tip Ry on the seasoning 👍

Hi Ry great tips for frozen burgers I do the same here i Trinidad. Looking forward for your next video did enjoy the Saturday live wonderful.

Great video, the actual 6th tip would be making sure you use 80/20 burgers or better like you had there. Use to use 73/23 and all they did was flare up and burn.

Great tips. Sometimes frozen is great for a quick weeknight meal or large cookouts. Convenient and quick. 👍🏻

Cost and convenience.. Amen

That looks good man

Thank you sir I am gonna have your channel on when I bbq at my daughter's house so you can walk me thru this process

I do mine about the same, I use Garlic salt and crushed black pepper on mine with a nice Kaiser roll from the market and these eat pretty darn good for a backyard party burger patty.

Hi Ry, Could you please guide me , I have a burger business serving big burger one big I have is 9inchess but everytime I cooked my pattties always crushed,shatter, once I turn into other side totally bad , I just rearranged the patty once I put it into my buns, this was coming from the freezer. I perfect my seasong but the way I cookes it so bad. Feel disappointed everytime I served it with my customer and they saw it that the patty was not in shape. please have a piece of advise. thank you

Man that looked like a hand pressed burger after you put your magic on it. Awesome looked delicious!!!

Thank you so much ❤️

Great tips! Going to charcoal some burgers today on the grill! Thank you.

Just tried this and it really improved my frozen burgers! Thanks Ry!

Thanks for the tips!

will this work on the stove in a cast iron skillet also?

Ry, just wanted to share with you that I tried this today, but with a twist. I do not have the kettle, but do have the WSM. I followed your directions, ,but instead of brickets, I used lump. I placed my burgers on the lower rack, about 12 inches above the flames. They thawed nicely and after cooking, came put flavorful AND juicy. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for this technique, but with my twist.

I try your way and they were great thanks for the tip

Don't know where I'd be in life without pepper Jack cheese. That burger looks 🔥🔥🔥

Worked out great Ty !

Always love lettuce and Tomatoes as well..

Thankyu Ry

I'll have to give it a try. I was always suspicious of frozen burger patties, lol.

Cost and convenience are definitely a big bonus, but one of the things that I continue to buy frozen burgers for is the simple fact that I can make them the way I want, and they come out better than most fast food and fast casual burgers. It's the little things, like toasting the buns just they way you like, or using the burger drippings to toast them in. Or cutting the onions how my family likes, maybe cooking them with the burgers too. Little things like that. Just grab them out of the freezer, get the pan or grill hot, and put them on. Season, cook, remove, dress, and eat. I love the home made burgers we make here from fresh ground beef, but honestly, the really good quality frozen burgers give me ninety percent of the payoff for less work and time. Thanks for the video and tips. Your burger looked great.

Thanks for this video. I do frozen burgers as well, but next time I'll be doing them your way. Ron

Using these tips tonight. Thanks

Great job, thank you.

My friend does something very similar only thing he adds Worcestershire sauce then bbq. Very good tips here thanks

Would there be any benefit to thawing prior to grilling? Would thawing allow any seasonings/sauces to penetrate deeper? BTW, we far prefer a griddled bun to ones tossed on the grill - they are more moist, because you can use fats, instead of basically toasting them.

Ry, You are the coolest!

This is helpful. Thanks.

Thanks for the tips

i enjoyed these tips. i have frozen patties in my freezer and done right, yes, they can taste pretty good! the seasoning after flipping is a great idea. I cook mine on the stove top and put a small amount of butter in the pan to make sure they stay juicy. probably not necessary, but taste good to me! Wish I had some bbq sauce to put on it.

Trying this. Thanksssss

Thanks for these tips

I get the sams choice patties from Wal-Mart, use a little salt pepper and chilli powder and it taste good.

First video for me on this channel, he said AFS and what it denotes, he had me dying 🤣 Love this man
