Announcement of a Temporary Hiatus and New Projects

Deb has fifteen recipes for meatballs on Smitten Kitchen, and exactly one for a meat burger. That does not mean Deb lacks for opinions about burgers, oh no no — she goes head to head with Mr. Burger Lab himself, who has published dozens of burger recipes and guides. Kenji and Deb are in agreement about the one burger type that anyone can make at home just as well as a restaurant. Plus, a special announcement.

Recipes Mentioned:

• Fake Shake Burger (Smitten Kitchen)
• The Burger Lab: The World's Best Burger for a Single Man (or Woman) (Serious Eats)
• Classic Smashed Burgers (Serious Eats)
• Oklahoma-Style Onion Burgers Recipe (Serious Eats)
• Mastering the Art of Burger Blending with Eight Cuts of Beef (Serious Eats)
