they just stick a hash brown on top of the chicken burger.


which might not sound amazeballs, but it is

Why I always ask my quarter pounder without sauce.

I believe we have discussed before how much it annoys me when my brother goes 'no gherkin' just to get his 90p cheesburger fresh cooked. Its maccy dees ffs! not hestons burger bar

 

[killer b]

the gherkin is the best bit of the 90p cheeseburger. it's an integral part of the flavour.

I must get some hash browns in for this purpose, although I struggle to make a chicken burger as good as the ones from KFC at home.

is it because you don't know the colonel's secret blend of 12 herbs for the coating?

that closely-guarded trade secret that made Clnl Sanders a millionaire.

I can't diss BK completely-their fries for example are head and shoulders above those of their rivals (KFC fries are the shittest). But sometimes the flame grill leaves a burger too dried out, andwho wants a dry burger?

to return to the BK question- they are also somehow quite abit more expensive than the competitors for no good reason.

also the old advert where the Burger King himself jumps out on someone at a cashpoint. Try jumping out on me at a cash point and I'd shove his burger throne up his back passage

I suspect it's more to the face that my fryer isn't as good as there's.

The burgers are bigger. Not £5.70 bigger though!

This times 1,000,000,000,000. Gherkins still remind me of Saturdays with my Dad when I was a kid, he'd always buy me a McDonalds and the flavour that superglued itself to my pallet for the rest of my life is that sweet, sour gherkin slice on a wee bed of onion.

Your right. They don’t use fryers, they use pressure fryers, which as the name suggests is some mad combination of deep fat fryer and pressure cooker.

 

[1927]

I don't get my McDonanlds don't do more bigger burgers. I'd happily have a double quarter pounder most times!

They used to, but got criticised for marketing unhealthy big burgers. I recall them doing something like a mega mac of king mac or something which had 4 beef patties in it.

 

[Callum91]

Nanny statism. Most people would eat more meat if they made their own at home, I reckon. Does make you wonder how they fit so many calories into their meals though, when you look at the volume of actual ''food'' that you're getting.

 

[DotCommunist]

they have a special lab where Doctor Harden-Artery works tirelessly to produce food with almost no nutritional value but high content in fat

Just had a look on ebay and sadly they are a bit out my price range. I'll have to stick with my regular fryer.

as I have posted a few times beofre on here - the best mcd's burger is two double cheeses combined to make a quadruple cheese burger.

That's not SO bad, looking at everything else they do for comparison.

We can't get a chicken mega mac here either.

Swap the mayo for chilli and I'm in. Lets start a petition...no! A Facebook page! Maybe a few hashtags just to make sure.

 

[Cheesypoof]

As I've said previously you want something cooked to order. It's not going to be good if it's been sitting in a heater drying out for hours. You can get good burgers from BK/McD if they are made and get to you with no sitting about.

This is true, because I have worked in BOTH establishments!!

I tend to happy with keeping all the dressings, but if they are freshly made they can be quite good. I usually go for Twister fries or whatever is on promotion, so I can actually see the chips/ onion rings being made too!

Do you think we could run a successful campaign for bigger burgers all starting from urban.

Personally I'd be all about the Double Quarter Pounder but will support people in the fight for a quadruple Big Mac.

I personally, don't want bigger burgers!!! takes ALL the fun out of eating it with your bare hands. I don't want to end up going down the knife and fork road...

More insane shit has happened on the interwebs. Look how fucking viral cats have gone. Fucking cats! Mr Average man on the street wants a large burger, fools you into thinking you're getting better value. It'd be a right barnstormer for McDonalds, I reckon. That and doing their breakfast menu all day.

the worst sort of burger crime..

I made a Chicken Big Mac from a McChicken sandwich and the BLC Chicken.

Some countries use Special Sauce, others use Mayo - my version had to use Mayo.

I made a Monster Mac as it's known in the Secret Menu Sect by ordering a Big Mac and 3 x plain Cheeseburgers. It was BIG!

 

[sim667]

Has blacks burgers in purley been mentioned in this thread at all? The do some epically big burgers.

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

What happened to this thread? It used to be delicious and now you're all talking about those greasy, pretend burgers as though they were worth looking at, let alone eating. I'm disappointed.

you know maccy d's on the drapery in n'pton town centre? I'm reliably informed that as well as staying open all friday night/saturday morning, they still sell the mega mac after 11 pm.

I couldn't finish a whole one personally.
