Switched from a coarse plate to a 3mm grind for my burger blend, and the patties finally hold together
Been running chuck and brisket through an 8mm plate for two years and always fought loose patties on the flat top. Dropped to a 3mm plate on the #12 grinder last week, one pass instead of two, and got 24 patties out of 10 pounds with zero fall apart. Curious what plate size the rest of you run for sausage versus burgers.
