Review-Ball Park Grilled Patties

 

As a bzzAgent I love receiving new items to try, this time I was able to try Ball Park Beef Patty. Thanks to Ball Park and Bzz for sending me this item for us to try.  The item that we picked to try was the Ball Park Beef & Onion patties.  Well I do have to say this one through me loop for starters I am no fan of microwave food. 

The Ball Park Beef Patties recommended microwave these for 2 to 3 min.  

Alright so I did that and let me say I didn't like that...here is the reason why:

1. They were extremely greasy and mid way through cooking I had to change the paper towel to finish cooking it.
2. To us the hamburger tasted rubbery, you can taste some of  flavor in them but just chewing it and tasting the grease, was another matter.
3. We did taste some of the onions in it though the grease seemed to overpower it.

I do have to admit for someone who is extremely busy and knows microwaves better then me, may have a better chance with it then I.

So on that note I still had a couple patties left so this is what I did with them:

 

We called it left over and what mom could grab. 

Instead of cooking in the microwave I cooked these in a pan that sat on a rack and in bottom of pan was a little bit of water.  So much better tasting and this time we were able to taste the flavors of the hamburger and it wasn't as greasy.

Here is what was in this dish

2-beef patties; cooked in a pan and diced up

3 potatoes baked and sliced

1 can of peas

Layer all on a plate.

Sauce:

1 c of cream of mushroom

1 sm container of greek yogurt

cook in small saucepan, whipping as it cook. 

Then pour over the top and sprinkle on some cheeder cheese.

In cooking it this way it was a much better tasting meal and we were able to taste the flavor of the onion in the patties not just the grease. I personally will be cooking or grilling these instead of microwaving them. 

 

In researching this item further, here is what I found:

Ball Park Grilled Patties come in 3 different flavors:

1. Beef Patty
2. Beef & Cheese
3. Beef & Onion

Their ingredients do not consist of that pink slime that has been talked about instead this is what is found inside of them.

Overall I would give this product a thumbs up for a fast, quick easy burger and for cooking it, I really think that is up to you to decide. If you like to know more about the Ball Park Grilled Patties head on over here.
