Best Cooking Methods

There are almost as many different ways to cook BUBBA burgers  as there are varieties of BUBBA burgers to choose from— you can find all the cooking methods here.

For best results, we recommend cooking your BUBBA burgers on a grill or skillet preheated to medium-high. You can also use the following tips to make sure your BUBBA burgers are always cooked to the peak of flavor:

• Don’t thaw the frozen patty — BUBBA burgers are made in a patented shape that helps them cook more evenly and the burger lose its ability to hold this shape if it thaws.
• If they are frozen together, use a metal spatula to gently pull the patties apart— this prevents injuries from pulling them apart with knives or other sharp objects.
• Don’t overcook it — the perfect temperature for our all-beef BUBBA burger® varieties is 160°F and 165°F for our turkey varieties.
• Flip the burger about halfway but through don’t press it — this keeps the juices from running out and evaporating, which could make the burger less juicy

What Makes BUBBA burger® America’s #1 Frozen Burger?

There are lot of other frozen burgers out there. So, how do they stack up against BUBBA burger’s beef and turkey varieties?

Well, most other frozen beef or turkey burgers contain unhealthy amounts of extra sodium and are filled with lots of “extra” ingredients — we call those extras “fillers” — and the less you know what goes into them, the better.

But that’s not the case with BUBBA burger® — the secret to our success is as simple as our ingredients.

When you bring a box of BUBBA burgers home to your family, you know exactly what’s in them — 100% USDA Choice beef chuck and all-natural turkey. Both our turkey and beef varieties are high in protein, naturally gluten-free and have no artificial ingredients, additives, preservatives or fillers — and we’re proud of that fact. You should be, too!

After they’re ground in-house, all our beef and turkey BUBBA burgers are frozen immediately to keep their tenderness, juiciness and flavor at the peak of freshness. That same freezing process also locks in all the vital nutrients, vitamins and amino acids to ensure that every BUBBA burger is packed with maximum nutritional value.
