Burger Thread. Yes!

[extra dry]

feeling hungry now...I make burgers, each time I try something a little different, like adding oats to bind everything together and it works. chopped chillies, herbs, all lush.

 

[extra dry]

let me put it this way there is a place near where I am staying that has been on man vs food...[/quote]

photos or it never happened....will you try to eat what ever grease laden heart attack inducing deep fried creation on offer?

I had a big mac because of this thread.<snip>

It's the fault of this thread that I ended up buying a pack of two frozen microwavable doners, a thin & crispy chicken fajita pizza, and a thin & crispy ham & pineapple pizza. The doner was as underwhelming as you'd expect.

i was also inspired by this thread to have a posh free-range pigburger from borough market today. I think the stall has also been at the Country show before now. Anyway, it was tasty, but lacked cheese. I took pics, will show later.

I'd cheat - remove the top, then pick off the meat with your fingers.

Might as well just have an open-faced sandwich.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Ashamed?? I'd be fucking proud.

...or just buy a double big mac.

Might as well just eat half a roast chicken with your beer and have done with it.

A chicken's not a burger, though.

I know. But I crave that more often than a burger.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

I eat way more chicken than burger. I rarely eat burgers.

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

Wtf?

Makes perfect sense if you substitute "taco" for "burger."

I've never seen such a thing!

 

[Chuff]

I don't think we have such silly things over here.

The quadruple cheese Burger dooesnt have the extra sheet of bread or any salad rubbish, so has a more fatty mushy texture

 

[Boppity]

Aye the top layer deffo needs cheese!

Maybe some real meat instead of that soy/pink slime slurry and a bit of wasabi.

 

[Boppity]

I'm partial to a bit of soy and pink slime.

Though I'm led to believe that the pink slime is only used in American chains. Maybe I put too much faith in Jamie Oliver!

Wasabi? What the hell has happened to American Values?

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

Wasabi? What the hell has happened to American Values?

Gluttony is an American value.

It wasn't that long ago that you people frowned on driving Japanese cars.

Japanese condiments on a hamburger??

I was driving a Japanese car in the early 80s.

I don't think the Japanese would be thrilled with my combination. I like the wasabi mixed with mayo. Then I add pickled banana peppers.

Well, it's been pretty much established that you're the rebellious sort.

This discussion is making me want sushi.

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

This discussion is making me want sushi.

Me too. Too bad it sucks here. I'll have to settle for a burger.

All of you know nothing about burgers.

Take stake mince. Crush it together in your hands, lots of pressure. Add a fair bit, but not too much, of pepper. A tint bit of salt. Keep squashing the mince, turn it in to pattys and squash again. Do this enough you create a burger of the gods. Twonks who use egg and/or other binding agents know nowt. Pressure binds mince, less is more when it comes to a burger.

 

[Boppity]

Mmmm bland.

That's not a silly idea at all. I wish we could a get a double quater pounder with bacon over here. Supersized.

Stake mince? What is this, fucking McStoker burgers? And you need some fucking spices, some garlic and chili, chopped parsley and stuff in it. FFS. Amateur.

Wtf are you? French?

Less is more when it comes to cooking. Keep it simple, keep it real. It's a burger, no need to be a ponce about it.

Yup, it's from Hamburg, in Germany. A country that knows the value of not fucking about with food just for the sake of it.
