Rather than makng a hamuburger patty, just cook and crumble the ground beef. Spread a thin layer on the bread between the cheese. You can make your pound of meat stretch to about 8 sandwiches. I have also added a slice of tomatoe to the sandwich before grilling especially when tomatoes are in season and everyone has plenty to use.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311510903511411789.post-39593521092880221672010-08-21T14:16:51.983-04:002010-08-21T14:16:51.983-04:00i love patty melts....i am not an onion fan....but...i love patty melts....i am not an onion fan....but used to make these when we got fresh ground beef.

Put the metal can onto the machine so that the stick blender extends into the bottom of the can. Turn on blender and move can around until the shake is thoroughly mixed. Chains like Friendly's and Steak 'N Shake use these machines as do traditional ice cream stores and what are called diners here.<br /><br />Fast food shake machines are similar to frozen yogurt or soft serve machines. The machine is filled with a liquid mix and the machine cools the mix down while paddles stir it. Eventually, the mix thickens and is extruded into a serving cup. McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's use machines like these to make what they call "shakes."<br /><br />This is an example of a bar blender which is the type of blender that most homes have in their kitchens today:<br />http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/kitchenaid-5-speed-blender-brushed-nickel/?pkey=celtbjcble<br />You can make a milkshake with this type of blender but milkshake blenders are faster and more efficient than a bar blender. Bar blenders are not practical for making milkshakes in a restaurant setting, in part because it's so time-consuming to clean the container which is necessary between flavors.<br /><br />Oh, bother.
