A friend of mine brought over some Pat La Freida burgers that we cooked up on the cast iron grill pan with some good cheddar and green chile (note: real green chile, painstakingly imported from NM). It was a seriously excellent experience.

Thanks pigiron! I saw those burgers on offer from Fresh Direct, but was too skeptical to order. I will now.

I ordered La Freida short-rib burgers from Fresh Direct a few weeks back when they were on sale (something like $5.99 for four 6 oz burgers). I cooked them unadorned in a cast-iron skillet and served them on a potato bun (no condiments, no cheese). I will say without hesitation that they were the best home-cooked burgers I’ve ever had in my life. They’re ASTOUNDINGLY good. I imagine that they’re even better cooked on an open flame.
