2 Pounds 80% Lean Ground Beef 

Salt And Pepper

4 Large Eggs

1 1/2 Cups Heavy Cream

Preheat peanut oil in a heavy skillet over high heat to 375 degrees. Form the meat into five to six patties. Season liberally with salt and pepper.

Whisk the eggs and cream together in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in a separate bowl. 

Dredge each of the hamburger patties in the flour and brush off the excess then dunk the into the egg and cream mixture . . . repeat three times per patty.

Carefully place the burgers in the oil, being careful not to overcrowd.
