I use a dinner plate up side down were the lip is role in a ball take 2 sheats of wax papper one on bottom of hb one on top of hb smash down hard it realy packs it tight

Poor design

Do yourself a favor and find an old flexible plastic version of this item. One party company has been selling them for decades and has enough flex so you can easily get the patty out. They are stackable and interlocking so you can make patties ahead or even freeze them for future use complete with a snap on lid. Weber makes great grills, but this accessory falls flat.

Best of several I've tried

This does exactly what it should, simply, and is even reasonably priced, especially for Weber. Per the other reviewer, you do have to be semi cautious when removing the patties. I used to oil the larger piece which worked ok, but now don't bother.

Who wants a Burger?

Was making stuffed burgers, but with a press it was slow! - With the press we were done in half the time!

Burger press

Works as it should, only thing is a grease build up when making multiple burgers. Rinse with hot water seems to keep things moving along.

Burgers break when removing from press.

Burgers break when removing from press.Weber needs to have better instructions on or in package on how to forming burgers that keep them formed.

Works like a champ

Meat will definitely stick to it if you don't do something to prevent it. My wife and I put disks of parchment or freezer paper in the top before pressing each patty. Leave the paper between patties if freezing. Otherwise just peel it off and throw away. We didn't try it but a larger piece of plastic wrap in the top can probably be used and re-used or wrapped around the patty if freezing. We added shredded cheddar cheese, chopped mushrooms (1 oz each per patty), salt and Worcestershire sauce.

Easy to use

I just bought one of these because I had used one at the Weber cooking school. We put Saran Wrap on the bottom and the top inside of the press so clean up was very easy and nothing stuck to the inside surfaces. When you cook a burger that is uniformly thick it turns out perfect every time! I also liked the Weber seasonings.

Works great.

I bought the burger press on sale at a local Lowes. After reading the reviews about the burgers "sticking" I was a bit concerned. It didn't come with any directions other than how to clean it. After reading another review I coated the parts of the press that come in contact with the hamburg with Pam non stick cooking spray. (Any food grade oil will work I think.) I then used the press to make 1/2 lb. and 1/4 lb. burgers. They came out of the press easily and perfectly formed. I'm very happy ...

Pefect, if you follow directions

This makes perfect patties but you have to follow the instructions and use a touch of cooking oil on the plastic when you start. Patties slip right out!

Waste of money

Sticks and doesn't work. I thought maybe the hamburger I was using but I'm done trying as I end up making by hand instead

Complete waste

It's a decent idea, however the hamburger just sticks to it aND its impossible to actually get a burger out of it. I used it once and was so disappointed I threw it right in the trash
