Carlstadt, N.J. – With its newest offering, Burger Maker, of Carlstadt, N.J., attempts to solve the age-old dilemma of whether the patty or the toppings make the best burger. The company’s Certified Angus Beef ® brand Signature Blend combines the best of three different beef cuts: brisket, chuck and steak tails from the rib and loin. Each cut provides unique flavor and smooth texture that complements the others when combined.
“We developed this proprietary blend by sampling all different types of raw materials ultimately looking for the most flavorful yet tender pieces of beef to create a burger like no other,” says Jamie Schweid, Burger Maker’s executive vice president of sales. “Using Certified Angus Beef ® brand brisket, for example, produces bold, beefy flavor. The burger addresses the needs of high-end operators who appreciate flavor and texture and insist on serving the best-quality beef each day.”
With his sights set on white-tablecloth restaurants, country clubs and resorts, Schweid says the burger’s rich, beefy flavor allows chefs the fullest potential for creating distinctive menu solutions, whether for a slider, full-size burger or specialty dish using ground beef. The burgers are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and thicknesses, as well as a pillow pack vacuum bag which maintains the product’s loose texture as originally ground.
Schweid, whose father founded Burger Maker in 1978, adds that the forming process is just as important as the beef quality and cuts used. The company uses a unique forming structure that makes the burgers looser than the industry standard. The loose form maximizes flavor and tenderness while also ensuring hand-made texture.
Ten strict quality standards ensure the Certified Angus Beef ® brand is a cut above USDA Prime, Choice and Select. These specifications provide the consistency that eliminates variations found in other grinds. It’s the best Angus beef available. Visit www.certifiedangusbeef.com for information.
