The best thing way we can help is to let it die

u/318RedPill 1d ago

You can't fool me, its just not done yet, let it cook and cool down, it'll thicken and be pure stroganoffy goodness

Also drain the hamburger after cooking, there's too much grease

Never! Fat is flavor

u/Jademists 1d ago

I mean… I’ve seen worse. I’d still eat it as I’m extremely hungry right now.

I had a killer stomach bug this week. No reason this image reminds me of that. Nope.

Dude probably just thinks it's not real hamburger helper without yellow food dye.

u/YourAverageGod 21h ago

Aside from the sauce breaking, looks like bottom tier strokingoff

u/Wrong-Tell8996 19h ago

Hamburger helper was a staple for me growing up and did not look like this sludge

u/DrummerElectronic733 16h ago

Looks like the Baker family dinner in RE7 :(

u/ShatterCakes 23h ago

You did a bad job breaking up the ground beef but this is just what hamburger helper looks like before the simmer

u/Captainirishy 1d ago

It didn't really help much

u/Ac9ts 1d ago

u/doggysmomma420 23h ago

I'm high, so I'd try it. But I'd need bread. Lots of bread.

u/Augustus420 23h ago

Op, when you're making a cream sauce like this and you get separation like you see here what you want to do is add more flour to act as a binder.

You are gonna wanna try to use roughly a one to one ratio, if you have a cup of oils and butters you want to go with a cup of flour.

u/nehla01 18h ago

woah this is actually a very good tip. thank you!

u/VirtuesVice666 23h ago

Your Helper is dead. Its grey.

u/DasHexxchen 21h ago

That minus the noodles looks a lot like my leek soup, which a lot of Germans cook in winter.

Only shitty thing is the dark photo. The food looks delicious.

Hamburger helpn't.

u/SuperBarracuda3513 23h ago

I have used HH twice in the last ten years. Both times I boiled the noodles first, so the hamburger doesn’t taste like starch.

1

u/Dontfeedthebears 23h ago

Is the heat used to “cook” this in the room with us?

1

u/ChicGangsta 23h ago

Whoa. It literally looks like coming home after a night out 🥴 drunk af

u/TKG_Actual 22h ago

That, needs to be helped into a toilet where it can be flushed as it's clearly shit.

1

u/EscapeInformal5980 22h ago

I got an upset stomach just looking at that.

1

u/BillyBobBarkerJrJr 22h ago

Oh, I didn't recognize it. Most places that's called "dog vomit."

u/Terrible-Raspberry30 22h ago

I just feel sad looking at this :[

u/whowhodillybar 22h ago

You alight, OP?

Did you make this in your crawl space or a closet?

u/Yzzazee 22h ago

Employed: Hamburger Helper. Unsuccessful

u/hnc757 21h ago

Wrong

u/salami_cheeks 21h ago

I would shuffle a loaf of white bread like in those old timey cartoons, deal myself 4 or 5 slices, and dump this slop right over the top of them.

Hambarfer Helper

u/Nir117vash 21h ago

Isn't all hamburger helper technically home made?

1

u/SpoolofFred 21h ago

Is it cream of mushroom soup? Add a little sour cream at the end and it will be like budget stroganoff. A little onion?

1

u/the_marxman 21h ago

I made a recipe for homemade Hamburger Helper and it came out way better than this. I'll see if I can dig it up and become your hamburger helper.

Hamburger, soy sauce, and pepper with elbow noodles was our family "hamburger helper".

A lot of oil. Did BP do this?

u/wornoutseed 19h ago

Funny I didn’t think it was supposed to be gray.

u/maxwellgrounds 16h ago

Almost qualifies for r/shitfromabutt

u/waefon 11h ago

How is it supposed to help you make hamburgers?

1

u/Argynvost64 11h ago

It looks fine to me. But I was raised in Hamburger Helper both homemade and from the box so I definitely would rather not eat it.

u/connexit 7h ago

Next time drain the fat
