I got hamburger patties from shop right. They made 4 patties from 1.35lbs of 93% meat! I would have gotten the 80 percent beef if I wasn't trying to watch my weight.

    I'm confused. Is this good or bad? That's a 5.4 oz burger.

    You can re-portion them if they aren't frozen.

    Make it into smaller burgers.

    It's just a lot. I guess it means less bread, so that could be good. But it made a 440 calorie cheese burger, so the calories caught me by surprise. Also, I get hungry a lot, so I'd rather have smaller more frequent meals.

    Ah, I see. 5.4 ounces is a perfectly reasonable portion for me, but I prefer larger less frequent meals.
