[quote name='pjarvi']It's common to use oats as a binder with ground beef. Really any lean meat you need to use a binder to hold it together in place of fat. It's done every day by millions of housewives making hamburgers or meatloaf. In place of oats you can use dried bread crumbs. I made some awesome teriyaki turkey burgers once with wheat bread crumbs. Looks to me like Taco Bell knows how to cook beef properly. I'm surprised this involves an Alabama law firm, I would have expected a California nutjob to either use a lawyer from San Francisco or Florida. Maybe she is so out of her mind that even Florida lawyers turned her down and she had to go with Alabama lawyers instead?[/QUOTE]
I totally didn't think about it, but you're right about your first point. I know people that use bread crumbs all the time when cooking ground beef.
Have you ever been to Alabama? yeah, i could see this going down/coming from Alabama.
