Burger Thread. Yes!

[Yetman]

Everyone loves burgers. Especially me. So this is a thread to celebrate them. Feel free to list recipe's for your own homemade versions, or discuss variations and argue about which is the best.

Firstly, I want to bring up the new BK offering. The Angus XT Ploughman.

Angus XT Ploughman – athicker, flame-grilled 100% Aberdeen Angus beef burger, topped with melted slices of Irish cheddar and Red Leicester cheese. This succulent burger is served in a British baked, freshly toasted glazed bun, with fresh slices of onion and tomato, hand picked UK iceberg lettuce, and finished off with a swirl of sweet pickle style relish.

Branston on a burger? Wrong? I haven't had the balls to try one yet as I'm usually a Bacon Double Cheese or Whopper kinda guy, what do you lot think?

ignore the fish fingers, they are a distraction cleverly planted to distract you from the potential wrongness off the Branston

If you are getting your burger fix from burger king you are seriously missing out!

Paging butcher....

 

[sheothebudworths]

Hmmm....I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that I can imagine the burger/branston combi being a bit of a winner

You're blatantly going to have to try one, Yetty

 

[TruXta]

Way to disappoint, OP. Burger King? FFS.

 

[wayward bob]

blue cheese and bacon burgers ftw.

 

[wayward bob]

iceberg lettuce has no place on a burger of any kind

Big Mac. Strawberry milkshake on the side. Comfort food, the equivalent of your Mums roast dinner but quicker and more comforting I still take the kids to eat it if I'm ever feeling miserable and it NEVER FAILS

I like the beige sauce with little cubed bits best.

 

[joustmaster]

Burger King do some pretty good burgers.

 

[Edie]

The Albert done me and Biddly a pretty good one on the weekend

 

[Yetman]

The BK thing is just for starters as I think its a bit of a dare with the Branston. Feel free to improve the thread with some proper posh/homemade burgers

I really want to try this creation - The Bill Murray Life Aquatic Surf ‘n Turf Burger with soft shell crab.

Where, pray tell, do you recommend oh wise one?!

Does anywhere else have a Yoyo burger apart from Bristol? They do ace varieties of burger, with some interesting selections of meat (Lobster burger anyone?) but the generic beef burger pattie is quite plain and very reminiscent of a supermarket own brand frozen flattie that you'd find on a barbeque being sold at a quid each down the local fete.

@ptg... OMG

Branston a dare? Don't be such a purist yetty.

Branston a dare? Don't be such a purist yetty.

It's surely a bit overpowering for a burger no? I must try one. I am being a big scaredy bastard by staying safe with the standard fare arent I....

Just avoiding national chains really - the independant's tend to do it more for love.

Reprobate!

Kraze Burger in Korea is the best ever. You can't get decent burgers easily in China, very few Burger Kings too.

Nah, still in the sandy lands. Not back for a 6-7 weeks still. Next time!

Fine Burger on Upper Street did a really good rare burger. Its shut down now though. There is one at St Pancras, but its well shit in comparison.

I had a Burger King for the first time in ages...it was alright I guess, but at £8 I couldn't help feeling a bit let down.

 

[Firky]

iceberg lettuce has no place on a burger of any kind
