What Patty Paper Does in Your Kitchen
Patty paper works through the whole prep line. During forming, it gives a non-stick surface to press and shape patties to an even thickness. During stacking, it separates each patty so a tall stack stays portioned. During freezing, it lets you pull one patty at a time from a frozen stack without thawing the rest. And on the grill line, a quick peel drops the patty straight onto the heat with no sticking and no waste.
Patty Paper vs Burger Wrap
They are different tools for different stages. Patty paper is a small dry-wax separator used in prep, between raw patties. Burger wrap is a larger grease-resistant sheet used at the pass, around the finished cooked burger. A kitchen uses both: patty paper in the walk-in, burger wrap at service. Ordering them together keeps the whole line consistent.
