Burger Patties for Every Taste

Juicy meat, rich roasted flavors, and the perfect portion for a bun, the grill, or a skillet: If you’re looking to buy burger patties online, Kreutzers offers a variety of options for classic cheeseburgers, premium burgers, and smashed burgers. Instead of just one standard patty, you can choose from different beef cuts, sizes, and preparation methods.

• Burger patties made from German Simmental beef

• Burger patties made from German Wagyu
• American-style beef burger patties
• Dry-Aged Burger Patties
• Simmental Smash Balls

This way, you can choose your burger meat based on how you prefer to prepare your burger.

Buying Burger Meat: Here Are the Options

When buying burger meat, it’s worth taking a closer look at the beef breed, portion sizes, and cooking method. After all, the patty is the heart of the burger’s flavor. If you’re looking for other high-quality cuts in addition to patties, Kreutzers also offers a wide selection of beef.

Simmental Burger Patties	200 g per patty	Classic burgers and cheeseburgers
Charolais burger patties	200 g per patty	Rich Beef Burgers
German Wagyu	200 g per patty	Premium burgers with minimal toppings
American-Style Beef	200 g per patty	Classic burgers and larger gatherings

Simmental Smash Balls	100 g per ball	Smash Burgers and Double Smash Burgers

Simmental Burger Patties

Kreutzers’ Simmental Burger Patties are sold in 200 g portions. This makes them ideal for generously topped burgers, and they can be cooked on the grill or in a skillet.

Simmental beef is an interesting choice for anyone who wants their burger to feature a distinct meaty flavor. You can then customize the patty to your own taste with cheese, bacon, onions, or a robust BBQ sauce.

Charolais Burger Patties

Burger patties made from French Charolais beef are also part of the lineup. These patties are also portioned at 200 g each, providing a hearty base for a classic burger.

Charolais is a traditional French cattle breed. If you’d like to try different cuts of meat and cattle breeds, a Charolais patty offers an alternative to the classic burger made with standard ground beef.

German Wagyu for Special Burgers

If you value pronounced marbling, you can opt for burger patties made from German Wagyu. The finely distributed intramuscular fat is characteristic of Wagyu and contributes to a particularly rich mouthfeel when cooked.

The German Wagyu burger patties at Kreutzers are sold in 200-gram portions. This makes them particularly well-suited for burgers where the meat is clearly the star of the show.

A Wagyu burger often requires just a few ingredients:

• a good bun
• cheese to taste
• a light sauce
• a few fresh toppings

If you’d like to experience Wagyu beyond just the patty, Kreutzers also offers Miyazaki Wagyu from Japan. This is a distinct variety of Wagyu and not the same meat used in the German Wagyu burger patties.

American-Style Beef Burger Patties

For a larger group of burger lovers, American-style beef burger patties are available in 200-gram portions. The larger package is ideal for barbecue nights with several people or when you want to prepare multiple burgers at once.

Especially with classic cheeseburgers, the rule is: don’t overload the patty with too many ingredients. A good bun, cheese, sauce, onions, or bacon give the meat enough room to shine while still delivering that classic burger flavor.

Dry-Aged Burger Patties

Dry-aged burger patties are another option for anyone looking for a burger with a richer, more robust meat flavor. At Kreutzers, they’re available in smaller portions of 150 g each.

This size is ideal, for example, for:

• more compact burgers
• double burgers with two patties
• Burgers with multiple toppings
• smaller portions compared to a 200-g patty

Which size and type of meat works best ultimately depends on the desired burger.

Smash balls for smashed burgers

A smashed burger is prepared differently than a classic thick burger patty. Instead of a patty that’s already been flattened, portioned meat balls are placed on a very hot griddle or skillet and pressed firmly flat right there.

The Simmental Smash Balls from Kreutzers weigh 100 g each. Pressing them down firmly creates a large contact area with the hot surface. This is exactly what gives smashed burgers their characteristic thin shape and crispy crust.

You can also stack multiple smash patties on top of each other. For example, adding cheese between the individual patties creates a classic double smash burger.

What Makes a Good Burger Patty

When it comes to burgers, the quality of the meat is especially important, because the patty remains the centerpiece of the flavor. Several factors are crucial:

• cuts of meat used
• Fat content and marbling
• Breed and origin of the cattle
• Processing and Portioning
• Seasoning and recipe

That said, there isn’t a single fat content or blend that’s automatically ideal for every burger. Different breeds of cattle have different characteristics. Wagyu, for example, stands out for its pronounced marbling, while other burger patties have their own distinct meat character.

Seasoning can also vary from product to product. That’s why it’s worth checking the specifications for each patty before preparing it. This way, you can avoid, for example, over-seasoning a patty that’s already been seasoned.

If you’re planning to order burger patties, you should first consider what kind of burger you want to make:

• classic cheeseburger
• hearty premium burger
• double burger
• thin smashed burger
• Burger with very few toppings

Quality and Origin at Kreutzers

When it comes to meat, origin, rearing, and processing play a central role. According to the company, Kreutzers works with personally selected breeders, manufacturers, and producers and monitors the products it offers at various stages of the value chain.

These include, among others:

• Inspections at farms and production facilities
• Inspections upon delivery in Germany
• On-site inspection of the goods
• Inspections prior to shipment
• Maintenance of the cold chain for fresh products

The conditions under which animals are raised are also among Kreutzers’ selection criteria. According to the company, breeders and suppliers are personally selected so that the company can track how, where, and under what conditions the animals are raised.

For you, this means: When you order burger meat online, you can specifically focus on the cattle breed, origin, and product characteristics, rather than simply choosing between standard patties of different sizes.

Burger Patties and Sustainability

Anyone who produces and sells meat bears responsibility for how the entire animal is treated. Kreutzers therefore places transparency throughout the value chain at the center of its sustainability strategy.

According to the company, various areas play a role in this:

• Animal Welfare
• Breeding and Rearing
• Agricultural Conditions
• Processing
• Packaging
• Supply Chain
• Maximizing the utilization of the animal

This is where Kreutzers’ “fresh-frozen” concept comes into play: Cuts that aren’t sold in time can be flash-frozen before reaching their best-by date, rather than unnecessarily discarding perfectly good food.

TKF: What does “frozen-fresh” mean?

You’ll find the TKF label on various burger patties in the Kreutzers product range. The abbreviation stands for “frozen-fresh.”

Kreutzers generally offers fresh products, but freezes certain surplus meat products before they reach their best-by date. Thanks to flash-freezing, these products can then be sold as frozen items.

Key points about TKF at a glance:

• TKF stands for “frozen-fresh”
• Suitable products are flash-frozen
• Freezing takes place before the best-by date is reached
• TKF products can be stocked in the freezer
• The label on the packaging determines the shelf life

Products already delivered as TKF can be stored in the freezer at -18 °C according to the label. The product label and the specified best-by date are always decisive for the actual shelf life.

How to Cook Burger Patties Properly

Whether on a grill, plancha, or skillet—burger patties require sufficient heat so that roasted flavors can develop on the surface. Therefore, preheat the cooking surface well before placing the meat on it.

For classic burger patties:

1. Preheat the grill or skillet well.
2. Place the patty on the hot surface.
3. Don’t keep moving it around while it’s cooking.
4. Don’t press down on the patty unnecessarily.
5. Cook on both sides until the desired level of doneness is reached.
6. If desired, add cheese shortly before the end of the cooking time.

The exact cooking time cannot be generalized. It depends, among other things, on the thickness and weight of the patty, the starting temperature, and the heat of the grill or pan.

The preparation process is different for smash balls. Here, pressing down firmly is an essential part of the process. Place the meat ball on a very hot plancha or skillet and immediately press it into a thin patty. This maximizes contact with the hot surface, resulting in a crispy crust.

Combining Burger Patties with Bacon

A hearty burger doesn’t necessarily need a lot of toppings. Often, just a few ingredients that pair well with the meat are enough.

A classic choice is crispy bacon. Its salty and smoky notes complement beef particularly well and work just as well on classic cheeseburgers as they do on double and smash burgers.

Popular burger ingredients include, for example:

• Brioche or sesame buns
• Cheese
• Bacon
• Lettuce and tomatoes
• Cucumbers
• raw or caramelized onions
• BBQ, burger, or other sauces

Still, balance is key. Especially with Wagyu or other burger patties with a strong flavor, it’s best not to use too many intense toppings at once so that the meat’s natural flavor shines through.

More Options for Grilling and BBQ

Burgers are ideal for a casual grilling night, but they don’t have to be the only meat on the grill. If you’d also like to prepare larger cuts, you’ll find a wide selection of steaks at Kreutzers.

Pork also offers numerous possibilities for grilling and barbecuing. Depending on the cut, it can be grilled quickly over high heat or cooked for a longer time at a lower temperature. For a larger barbecue gathering, you can also complement your burgers with various sausage and jerky specialties.

This makes the following combinations ideal for a barbecue, for example:

• Burger Patties and Steaks
• Burgers and various cuts of pork
• Burger patties and sausages
• Classic burgers and smash burgers
• Several types of patties for direct comparison
