Tender-Formâ
gives a texture as tender as Mum's homemade patties.
The homemade goodness
of a tender burger begins with old-fashioned basics. Cubes of lean beef were
carefully fed through mum's hand-cranked meat grinder. She gently formed
the loosely ground, fluffy patties. When placed in the pan, the patties cooked
quickly. The fluffiness of the patties created small air passages between
the strands of loosely woven beef which insured a tender texture. When served,
only one bite was needed to confirm that the making of a tender hamburger
began with the homemade goodness of mum.
The
Tender-Formâ
process:
After the raw material
passes through the normal size reduction and blending process, it is brought
to the forming machine. The meat product is then gently conveyed to the pump
box of the forming machine.
At that point, a controllable
on/off gentle pressure urges the meat up through the Tender-Form
â
fill plate. This fill plate has a large number of small
holes similar to those of a grinder plate. Immediately above the fill plate
is the mold plate. The cavities in the mold plate collect and hold these
strands of meat in a vertical position as opposed to a horizontal position.
The resultant patty is
made up of a series of vertical columns of meat. It is the small spaces between
these vertical columns that give the patty a fluffy and tender texture. These
small spaces also allow heat to enter and cook the patty faster.

. The natural approach to forming which creates faster
cooking, increased yields, more efficient freezing, and a tender, more fluffy
burger. As natural as mum's homemade patties.
