Make Shift Hamburger Press

I used two number 3 iron skillets. Put a half pound ball of beef in one, placed the other on top, pressed as hard as a sophomore at prom, and presto, damn good patti. You're welcome.

I use two plates. The plates we normally eat off of have a perfect size ring around the bottom of the plate.
Turn plate over
Place ball in center of plate
Take another plate and press down

No dimple that way. 
I can press a burger just fine with my delicate girl hands. I don't need a press.

Don't need no dimple if you do it like a make shift pro.

I think pressing them for me is more about my ocd coming out than anything else. All burgers exactly the same shape and size.

That's way too stressful, Hat!

No one can see the shape and size once it's on the bun!
Go watch that video of Julia and Jacques I put in the Julia thread. Hers is all out of shape and his is perfectly round. I like hers.

I try not to handle them much. Forming a ball seems to be a waste. I start making patty soon as I pick it up.
Thanks for the pro tip though.

Isn't there an app for that?

a sturdy metal spatula is easier

You making this patty cold or pressing it onto a hot skillet? The latter is my preffered method

Place ball between wax paper and smash with a large can of crushed tomato.

A burger press is about as useful as a boulion fork.
