Have to cook burgers for 30 people at tailgate. Suggestions?

Dude it takes no time for fresh burgers to be prepped and made. Stop being lazy.

I’ve gotten a case of fresh burgers from the local meat market and toss that on the grill. Hamburgers have to be the easiest thing to cook for guests. Shouldn’t take long to to cook 30-40 burgers

As far as the cook goes, I would make a large fire and cook them all indirect for 10-15 mins and then finish them directly over the fire as needed in batches to get a sear. That way you can have all the burgers 2 mins or so away from serving when needed.

Rouses has a $10 pack of 8 preformed patties. Season them how you like and throw them on the grill, easy peasy. Don't do frozen.

Ate at the one in Vegas, possibly the best burger I've had. Scott Slater, a Southern California native, was inspired to create the 50/50 patty while attending college. He would barbecue gourmet food at tailgating parties, and during one game, he convinced a butcher to grind several pounds of bacon so he could grill an all-bacon patty.

Half ground beef, half ground bacon.

I’d just go pick up 30 frozen burgers from Hebert’s Specialty Meats

Get your local meat market to press and package thirty patties.
