I can't find it. Every butcher I go too hasn't got chuck. Is it known as something else?

Not that I know of, but it is pretty rare to find. Aldi has it occasionally.
You'd get similar results from brisket I think (wouldn't be **** anyway)

 

[Mardoo]

Woolie's in FTG and Boronia actually often has chuck, as does Coles. Maybe it's more a winter month thing, not sure. I love chuck for burgers. If not that, then bolar blade. Rump is good, but too expensive these days unless you can find a primal cut for cheap.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Yep Chuck, Blade or if they don’t have that a fatty porterhouse (but that costs a bit more). I’ve always been able to get chuck from the local butchers. It’s my go to cut for slow cooks, curries and burgers. Brisket might not be fatty enough I think it’d dry out in a burger patty. Could do 70% brisket and 30% a fattier cut that the butcher has if there wasn’t blade.

I can do the cheesburgers, should be getting there mid morning but have to leave by 2pm, so is it cool to cook the burgers up and do lunch say 12.30pm? Just need to know final numbers to work out how much to get.

Also is someone gonna grab a big order of bread rolls like last time? If so we can just use those for the cheeseburgers

Meaning I'd be getting mince, cheese, onion diced and raw (controversial) and tomato sauce/mustard...

 

[Mardoo]

Brisket would make a tasty-ass burger (thank you punctuation!), but Deej is right, you'd need a hella fatty cut to make it not dry. 30% pork belly would do you right, get rid of the rind. Or "pork spare ribs", which are inexplicably much cheaper than pork belly. I was stoked to recently find my local Cole's carrying brisket. Most of the butchers I've talked to will only sell me a whole one, which is doable for veal, but not beef. Unless you have, say, 30 people to feed.

you're also bloody lucky having butchers like that, I really struggle to find a full brisket anywhere. Usually it's just the flat. Have to sneak in with a mate to Costco...

but that's settled, if they have it at the shops, i'm making brisket burgers on the weekend!

Jewish and halal butchers - they got some good stuff.

Tip Top Butchers have it often, one Eltham and Laverton! Cheap too

True to form I think have over ordered on the brisket front so there will be some available if somebody has a mincer available?

When I got home from the last one I found all the garlic bread I was supposed to bring out in the esky. Guess it was never needed with all that pizza still there!
I'll get some more and make sure to bring it out this time...

Friday nighters, how many pizzas do people eat each?

I make a pretty mean pizza dough and was thinking We could save on the pizzas and just have a prep station where you build your own and we'll cook them on a stone in the BBQ.

Depending how many we need, I'm prepared to make the dough. Could be easier to order, but just a thought.
