Burger blends

[jcnaz]

My local Fry's Grocery (Kroger) has boneless chuck roasts for $2.99/lb at least every other week. I have the butcher grind it for me and it makes some pretty good burger by itself. I have also done this with the family packs of top sirloin when the price is right.
For a quick, delicious, meat mix I mix in some sausage. The same grocery butcher case has locally produced "Denmark Brand" fresh sausage links that are about .25lb. each. I hand mix the beef and sausage at a ratio of one link to 1.5lb of beef, or there about. The polish sausage is my favorite, followed closely by andoullie. the guys at the firehouse like hot italian best.
