Because hamburgers are made with ground beef that has a certain amount of fat content, usually 20% fat. If you want leaner hamburgers, buy ground beef that has less fat in it. It won't be as tasty, but at least your heart will thank you. Happy cooking!

When they grind up the meat for the hamburger, they have to add the extra fat so that it will not be to dry when you cook it. That is what all of the white is that you see in the burger before it is cooked. The different grades have different levels of fat in them.

Ground beef is commonly mixed with a certain percentage of ground trimmings of fat that would otherwise go to waste...Ever notice that the leaner the beef, the more expensive it is, and the less it shrinks durring grilling?

because the cows how high percentage of body fat, you can get leaner cuts of beef and squeeze out the grease but it will leave the burger a bit dry. because chop meat is just that chopped up chunks of meat you can't cut off fat like you would on a steak or chicken.

the ground beef consist of the highest percentage of fat. Ground beef has more fat content than steak, loin, brisket, or beef ribs.
Ground beef is used to cook into patties and then it goes into a bun called a hamburger.

they dont have to be, the ones you get from fast food joints are pieces of thousands of dead cows consolidated into one patty and filled with all kinds of toxins that get into your body and prevent you from matabolizing and thus gaining weight. Have you ever looked at the people who eat fast food everyday?? Take this test: go to a Mcdonalds and sit at a table for 20 minutes and watch the people that come through the door.

Depends on how close the butcher trims off the fat, check the packaging for %fat,also the higher the fat content the cheaper the price.

Quality of the beef. The leaner the beef the less fat or use ground turkey in place of the beef.
