So I'm going to get 10% shrinkage and the higher fat burgers are really going to shrink.. Make your burgers bigger if you are aiming for a certian size.
@depglass : Thank you and will try this.

@SouthernBee @Ground beef is often injected with water, a lot of water. As you heat the meat, the water evaporates adding to the shrinkage. Additionally, ground beef naturally contains water, with leaner beef containing the most water. This also evaporates adding to the shrinkage.
