My asparagus has not shown it’s head yet. That extra mulching was too deep perhaps.
You still have it to look forward to then! Not sure which area you live but in London asparagus has gone mad from end of last week. At moment it is giving us about 14 spears every 2 days. Not complaining - it is one of highlights of allotment year. ATB
I’m in the Cotswolds - I’ve had Evesham sparrowgrass for the last 3 weeks. The first two lots were pencil thin, but Fridays were as thick as my little finger. The best veg of the year.
I’ve two beds of the stuff, and the hens love to weed the beds. But the soil is very thin - hence the belated mulching.

Just had to look up ‘sparrow-grass’ and hadn’t realised it was an old English name for asparagus or that Evesham so important in production in years gone by. Do they still hold asparagus auctions?

That’s a good question - here is a link to a festival that holds auctions.

I expect it will be disrupted by life events now but who knows.

15% fat isn’t that low for supermarket mince but perhaps I’ll add some melted beef dripping next time!
(Chances are it’ll just solidify on contact though!)

Only if you also have a male chicken (a word Discourse won’t allow through - maybe they don’t know what the word means?)

yorkshires and chicken ? Call the food police
I prefer that one, seems more tasty. I am a fan of “ gourmet “ burgers as you. 
But I would still eat yours of course 
Here a French video on some burgers made in Palace hotels, the most prestigious hotels in France.
A burger shown in the video, with Kobe beef ( written like that?) is sold for more than 1k.

The weather is so good and trying to occupy the children we made some pizza dough, fired up the pizza oven and they topped their own.
