Steak weight/burger press thingy.

[normalbloke]

Anyone use one? Looking to buy one, of decent weight and preferably U.K. manufactured if possible. Any recommendations?

Good idea going for a decently weighted one, I've got this and it's not exactly great:

This sort of thing.

For smash burgers I just use a heavy flat bottomed pot wraped in cling film. While waiting for your order I suppose you could always use a brick covered in foil.

I see this in all of Kenji's YT videos but dont know where to buy them. Very useful for cooking long/multiple pieces as you can interlock them, or just stack them. really good for bacon if you don't want it curling up in a pan.

Burger press seems to mean two things here, hence adding the extremely well penned description of steak weight thingy. I also want to be able to use it for getting bacon flat to the pan to speed up added crispiness.

I’m pretty sure my post met your brief and it’s British made

Seems a bit ungrateful if that’s how you rate it! I thought it was pretty much what you asked for and illustrated in your post

Apologies for the harsh rating, so I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that you’re either trolling or cannot read! I described that I was looking for the steak weight type of burger press ( ie not for making burgers), something of a decent weight, and preferably U.K. made. You’ve managed to post a link to the incorrect type of press, something made of lightweight aluminium, and for sale in California priced in $.

It was UTH who posted a link to the incorrect type.

JKRolling posted a link to this UK made Steel thingie which is what you asked for.

Oh crikey, apologies to JK, it seems I got my knickers in a twist following the link in the quote!

I simply posted it as the 'sort of thing' I thought you were after.

Blimey, this thread has got tetchy.

Buy some mince, chuck it on the ground and stamp on it. That'll do you.
