single grind here, I think it gives you a little more margin of error when cooking

I never understood wasting the time on double grinding meat, outside of making sausage. I prefer the texture of single coarse ground game meat. I don't add fat to my ground, but I sear ground and burger patties in beef tallow rather than using cooking spray or oil.

I don’t understand how anyone can get burger meat to hold its shape while cooking without adding any type of fat or binder.
Tried it several times and at best it was a crumby mix of meat falling apart.

I add an egg as a binder when making burger patties.
