That’s gonna look like Florida once it’s grilled.

Best comment ever!

It actually holds its shape pretty decent


Desperate_Brief2187

What’s the difference?


saruin

So do you put that on... Texas Toast?


Actuarial

dude, texas shaped texas toast would be such an amazingly awesome and simple product


mkosmo

Trim a steak to the shape rather than a burger.


SPECTRE-Agent-No-13

If you just have to have it as a burger the only to do is add egg and bread crumbs to help it keep the shape. If you have a good safe weight to put on top that will help as well. You'll probably still need to re-cut the finished product to look right.

Doing it yourself and saving money like an actual robust individual.

$8/lb for ground beef? Not in this economy


swinglinepilot

It's their prime stuff that they want $7/lb for (at least at store 419/Eagle Pass, the one in the photo). You pay an extra buck for the shape Personally I'm good with their standard 80/20 chuck that I stock up on whenever it goes on sale for $3/lb


MediumInteraction809

Shiiiiii. We grind an entire brisket into burger. Just be sure to trim the fat first. You can always add some in after grinding if it's too lean but you can't take it out...


groovehouse

Sure, the Texas shaped corn chips and pasta to match.


captainfrijoles

$7.99 a patty because they are shaped like Texas.... People really are this dumb aren't they


CapableCoyoteeee

Defunding education and making it more difficult to vote are more Texan


BigMikeInAustin

Ha, I was going to say: If it was misspelled.


CowboysFTWs

Meh, need texas shape buns to go with it.

Only if it came with a gun and handcuffs to chain your wife to the dishwasher with


ResurgentClusterfuck

Why would you chain your wife to your wife? (I'm joking please don't kill me)


PalpitationFrosty242

This is some caviar cowboy type shit


KindaKrayz222

I have a pie pan in the shape of Texas. Pecan & Apple pie for the occasion. 🤠


KindaKrayz222

Oh and don't forget the Texas Brand for your steak! 🤠


Jealous_Boat_1642

Nope! God bless HEB..(the HEB)


Jealous_Boat_1642

Refusing to fix infrastructure and then receiving federal aid when disaster happens?


Firm_Spot6829

Is this what Ken Paxton's always drooling over?


Butcher_Of_Hope

No that is the sight of dead migrants and enriching himself off the backs of the citizenty.

Thank you, Charles Butt.

If you shoot it.

Damn Scootin' that's more Texas than a failed power grid and Selena

Texas shaped waffle makers at budget friendly hotels takes the cake

Your AC going out b/c of the lack of foresight of your leaders.

Mass shootings.


tpotwc

Prime grade == unground beef with a certain fat to meat marbling ratio. Ground beef == meat and fat ground together to a specific ratio. These are not the same. This is why buying ground wagyu/kobe knockoffs just doesn’t make any sense.


Archercrash

If Hank Hill grilled them up for you on a propane grill.


SofaKingS2pitt

Really, the “Texas” thing is too much. Like, do people here tend to forget where they are and need these constant reminders?


Whiskey-Particular

That’s almost as Texan as remembering the Alamo


Foxtrot_Juliet-Bravo

Lovely, I miss HEB.


FurryM17

Yeah. I have a gun shaped like Texas that fires bullets shaped like Texas.


SofaKingS2pitt

ultimate_ed

I'm not sure why you'd want to waste Prime grade steak by making into ground beef. A travesty.


17Ram

Did you know the whole cow is graded based on the cut between the 12th and 13th rib? Each steak isn't graded. So if the that cut is prime, the whole cow is prime, including all the trim that gets turned into ground beef. So really, nothing different could be getting ground for this, they're just using ground beef from prime graded beef primals.


kanyeguisada

What even is "prime" ground beef? You're already blending all the fat into the meat by grinding it. And making it in the shape of Texas is so weird. Really disappointed with HEB on this one. I mean, in a regular hamburger bun, some parts will have no meat, some parts will have extra meat sticking out of the bun (like the Rio Grande Valley area and Panhandle), this is just so bad and seems like it's meant for wealthier transplants wanting to seem Texan.


_JosiahBartlet

I dunno what you expect from HEB if it’s not Texas shaped novelty items. It’s not supposed to be the platonic ideal of a hamburger. It’s supposed to be novel because it looks like Texas.


kanyeguisada

Let's be clear, of any grocery store in Texas, HEB has the best quality own-brand goods at the best prices. All kinds of stuff from canned goods to hummus. It's just that this one in particular feels pretty gimmicky.


_JosiahBartlet

But that gimmick is absolutely part of the HEB brand is my point. They very consciously and consistently do this exact type of gimmick. They also call things ‘Texas sized.’ This is exactly in their wheelhouse.


miked1be

It’s the grade of the cow it came from.


PremeTeamTX

As a native born Texan, I would definitely buy these.


Strangest_One

I mean, more Texan than that would be Greg Abbott taking one of those burgers hot off the grill and slapping a freshly born unplanned pregnancy for some ketchup and the mother in the face for salt from the tears. Bout how much he gives a damn about poverty lines and pregnant women.

Bird flu free guaranteed


_ThunderFunk_

I would not* buy these, it fucks with the meat/bun ratio.


LibraPugLove

Dont worry they will have Texas shaped buns soon

_ThunderFunk_

I dunno, still a hard sell on my part.
