Re-Heating Burgers

[Biccylova]

I have some cooked beef burgers left over from yesterdays barbie can I re-heat them, if so how is the best way to do it so they are not too dry?

[dannyk13]

Put them on a plate and cover with foil tucking it firmly under the rim.Preheat oven to 240c (gas 9) and heat for ten minutes.

Put them back on a warm BBQ for 5 minutes.

Other methods include the oven or a frying pan.

Heat thru.

Personally, I wouldn't re- heat. If you do so, then maybe in a barbecue sauce or gravy, but make sure piping hot.

[spathiphyllum]

If reheating in oven, place grease proof paper on the shelf below to catch any fat drippings.

BBQ'd burgers reheat best from a room temp, so if in fridge, leave for 3-5 min to slightly become less cold.

Many thanks, I do hate waste.

Birds will eat it cold.

I reheat in the microwave

Mrts sqad says.......that she wouldn't re-heat...EVER, as one doesn't know how well they were cooked on the barbecue.

[spathiphyllum]

but surely reheating would kill any problems, which is why people reheat?

I guess people may re-heat for taste.

I would use microwave. Cover them with some cling film and a splash of water.

Not necessarily so spath...some bacteria and certainly some spores may be ACTIVATED by re-heating.

[spathiphyllum]

Oh interesting, fair play i will take note.

[TonyV]

Do you have meat thermometer?

[dannyk13]

I have re-heated many different kinds of food using the method in my post at 12.44 and all of them have come out thoroughly heated through and piping hot.
