Burger Thread. Yes!

I use buns from the bakers, a quid for 4 and they're still warm from the oven if you go in the morning.

In the same vein, I bought some of these the other day to make some kebab type things with and they're really good! They don't fall apart like other tortillas. I had two for my dinner today with a chicken breast in each and a bit chilli sauce, salad and stuff.

Just you wait, it'll be the next culinary sensation, the McHamwrapper, 100% ''beef'' in a tortilla wrap just smothered in special sauce served with enough lettuce to sink the Titanic. Only £4.99, limited time only.

Oh and also, M&S sell brioche burger buns AND hotdog rolls. Needless to say, I bought the burger buns.

Everywhere good is always miles away. Ah well, all the more reason to simply perfect my own. I went back to M&S to buy the hot dog buns, gonna team them up with some bacon tomorrow for a change. Pics coming soon! Also, opinions on eggs on burgers? I've got 2 dozen to get through and I can only eat so much scrambled eggs.

im kind of swaying towards a 'nay' to eggs on burgers. Far too messy, hogs the limelight and seems to me that they just don't belong there. It's like, do you want a fry up or a burger, have one or the other. I am also averse to 'breakfast pizzas'

Not exactly new but a fantastic burger.

Edit: Ah they've added a new venue on Dame St. They've been Wexford Street for ages.

Get some chorizo and fry them with the scrambled eggs. Don't put eggs on a burger.

If I could lay my hands on some proper pork sausage patties I would do one with an egg.
Ooh from what I remember, Giggly Pig to sausage burger patties.....

That sounds lovely but I really dislike chorizo

I guess you would be best removing the sausage meat and making your own. That said, I would happily wolf down an egg on a burger, OR a breakfast pizza, jus being fussy

Egg works on a sausage & egg McMuffin...just saying... Oh and tonight I will finally take a picture of my creation. No excuses!

haven't had a sausage and egg mcmuffin for years - was tempted a few months ago, but when hungover there are so many better options...

It's not a bad quick fix. I'm still on single digits.

 

[FunkyUK]

I am overjoyed because Five Guys are coming to London!

So my chorizo and scrambled eggs sounds lovely aside from the chorizo.

It sounds lovely, the idea of eating it sounds very appealing. The reality however is that every other time I've eaten chorizo I've hated it intensely . Some other sausage would be fine.

 

[joustmaster]

how can you hate chorizo.. your are a wrong un

 

[Cheesypoof]

im never one to sniff at a MacDonalds when ravenous!

Will eat Burger King or KFC, anytime though

Burger King is so expensive though, I can never justify the price for a meal that will leave me hungry still. KFC is a different kettle of fish, the smell alone is worth paying for.

Where are you eating it?

 

[Callum91]

Last one I had was admittedly by the side of the motorway. I don't think there even is one here anymore.

Edit, oops, replied to the wrong bit, erm I've had chorizo in a few meals but each one has left me wanting to never have another again. I might have to go to Spain or something and have it cooked properly.

give you the 16oz chinese flavoured hamburger (uncooked & £1 coin to show size scale)

Actually, I'll be skewering this in 1" strips to make grillstick/kebab type things

im glad you aint making a burger out of it after all, Chinese burger doesn't work somehow

Yeah. What's chinese flavoured about it anyway?

 

[Cheesypoof]

Yeah. What's chinese flavoured about it anyway?

its probably got 5-spice in it.

 

[Yetman]

Umm, with spring onions and roasted green peppers it might be ok. Still. Not something that immediately springs to mind as a burger. Let us know how it goes

 

[Firky]

No, I wouldn't use them for burgers either but if you get a chicken breast, a pepper, onion and some marinade - they make a good wrap for a kebab. They're also quite good with humous
