I picked up a brisket on sale last week, and since I already have one I in the deep freeze, I'm thinking about grinding up the flat for burgers.
Anyone done this before? Any suggestions?

I actually mix ground brisket with ground chuck about a 50/50 mix, I've never done just brisket.

I don't understand why you would want to. You can buy it already ground cheaper at the proper fat ratio. I buy my burgers already made up. My preference is 85/15 for burgers and 90/10 for chopped beef dishes such as meatloaf or spaghetti.

Where is ground beef cheaper than $1.97lb, not questionable ground beef that is?

Different texture / flavor, and the brisket was only $1.69/lb. can't get close to that with pre-ground for anything close to decent.

I would give it a go and would bet you can surely make burger cheaper than buying it. Last time I looked burger was around 4-5 a pound? I don't know, I don't usually buy burger we used ground venison mixed with a little pork if we want a little fat in it.

Do it, you will not regret it. Only way I make burgers at home now. I sear them on the disc to get a good crust.

Stub yes it came from Kroger. Didn't look awful, so I figured why not given the price.
Tres, do you add any fat to yours? I've added bacon trimmings or pork fat in the past with venison. Don't have a disc, but I do have an egg, so these will go on it.

You won't need to add fat, in fact I usually trim some off the brisket before I grind it, a little less than you would if you were going to smoke it.

We've got a place that uses twice ground brisket in the burgers. Oddly, they are too lean for my liking.
Searching the world over for the perfect Chile Relleno.
