I have watched it being made many times. You start with a hamburger patty, slightly frozen, makes it easier to handle. Mix up some eggs, and a spiced flour coating. First dip in the mixed eggs, then dip to coat both sides of meat in the flour. Do this twice. Then you deep fry until they float. Check the center to make sure they are cooked through. Some people will then fry them in a pan or on the grill. Helps to cook some of the cooking oil out. Cover with a white sausage gravy and enjoy.

These are pan fried and not deep fried.  Please see my notes.

Enjoy! Smile


CHICKEN FRIED HAMBURGER  

Ground beef
1 egg, beaten
Salt and pepper to taste
Cracker crumbs
(I have used bread crumbs or Panko in place of cracker crumbs and may be flavored if preferred.)
Flour

•  Make patties of ground beef.
•  Dip into beaten egg and then into cracker crumbs and flour which have been mixed together.
•  Fry at medium temperature with a little oil until done in the middle.
•  Serve on hamburger bun or by itself.

Note:  If desired add chopped onion to the ground beef before forming into patties.  As patties fry do no press them with your spatula while frying as this will press the natural juices from the burgers and cause them to be dry.
