The Meters didn't achieve must mainstream success but are seen as one of the most influential funk bands. Rolling Stones even has two of their albums on their 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list. (Look-Ka Py Py and Rejuvenation) If your in to some serious funk I really recommend this band.
While surfing some food blogs I found an interesting post. The 10 Essential Steps to the Perfect Cheeseburger by Al Dente. Here they are:
1. Use 6 oz. of meat per patty, no more and no less. Don't guess, weigh it.
2. Shape it with your hands into patties. Ignore the common advice about not "overworking" the meat.
3. Liberally salt (use Kosher salt) and pepper both sides. Salt is the glory of red meat, don't stint.
4. Make a deep thumbprint in the middle of each patty (it evens out the burger when it cooks, don't ask why).
5. Refrigerate the patties until you're ready to grill. You can salt and pepper well ahead if you'd like.
6. Make a HOT charcoal fire.
7. Liberally oil both your grill and the meat before you start.
8. For medium-rare, grill the meat EXACTLY 3 minutes on one side (grill lid closed) and 2 minutes on the other.
9. Add the cheese, cover each patty with a burger cover, and cook for 1 minute more.
10. Remove the meat and quickly grill the buns (the only civilized way to eat hamburger buns).
My mom has a habit on over cooking the first batch of burgers. This are going to come in handy.
