I saw a show where they boiled em in a bag then torched the outsides before serving. makes total sense to me and I've been anxious to try, but I dont eat burgers often.

White Castle has been steam grilling their sliders forever. They lay an inch thick layer of diced onions on the grill, and then lay the burger patties on top of the onions. The steam rises from the onions and cooks the patties.

The luxury of having the great White Castle, now that's irony !!!!
Around here you only eat them when you are drunk beyond common sense.
You gotta love that SoCal "culture".

The Porcelain Palace, as some refer to White Castle, is all about the burgers. Tiny, little, greasy, burgers with five holes in them. Steam grilled, of course.
They can be an acquired taste. Normally acquired as a drunk teenager at Four in the morning.

Sounds like a variation of Sous-vide, which is about the same technique but often slower (no boil). Meat cooked this way, then given a sear before serving, can be absolutely freaking amazing. It's too bad I don't have the resources to do this at home, I'd cook so many things this way!

I agree, but after a quick boil has potential. Im cooking burgers on the ol'ladys next night off.

I saw that too and was wondering if there was a way to replicate it because the burgers looked so good. I forget the name of the restaurant, but I think they were located in Maine or someplace in that region. I think it was one of those shows hosted by Marc Summers.

Bowls set inside of a dutch oven or large pot with lid on a steamer rack with an inch or so of water will make an easy improvised steamer cabinet.
this thread cost me $279 plus S&H I bought an oven from this guy

alright.. Experiment 1: Failure. Gallon Zip-Locks do NOT stand up to a boiling pot of water, but the burgers turned out quite tasty on the grill anyways.
Im gonna move on the seal-a-meal when I get around to digging it out of the garage. From what I saw before and after the bag broke, this is gonna be sweet.
That Burg'rTend'r looks cool.
