Cant remember which TV Chef Personality said this (probably Gordon Ramsay) but they made a big distinction between restaurant cooking and home cooking at one point. In restaurant cooking stuff like basting a burger in butter is often the norm because it's flavor country and flavorful food is what keeps customers coming back. When you're cooking for yourself it's a bit overkill and if you do stuff like that all the time you're going to need to see a heart doctor at some point.
