  2. I use one of my measuring spoons to make nice small meat balls. Still have to do some shaping by hand but it’s only with 1 hand so it’s nicer than the way I used to try.

  3. So simple, yet genius. I used this tip to make burgers for my husband the other day. I don’t think I can ever go back to handmaking them ever again.
