Over here in the UK our McDonalds have an occasional 'state burgers of America' special.

the results can be...strange

Why is that guy reviewing garbage McDonald’s burgers? And spending more than 2 sentences on it?

McDonald’s review: was drunk and went to McDonald’s. Regretting it this morning.

They did an American burgers promotion a few years ago here. We got a McRib, a bbq angus, jalapeno poppers and shamrock shakes.

Kinda wish all of those bar the angus had stuck, they were pretty good.

I guess I didn't really realize there were regions for hamburgers. Each place creates their own.

Now when it really matters is this: Pizza, BBQ, and hotdogs. And it can get quite brutal.

But burgers, nah.

Dear burg thread, today I had :burger:

I was too excited to remember to take a picture of it, but the kind of burger I had was what we in Denmark call a bøfsandwich, which basically translates as beef sandwich. Very inventive, I know.
Here's an image:


The recipe is basically this:
Bottom bun, ketchup, pickled beets, beef patty, pickled cucumber, Danish remulade, top bun, brown sauce (gravy with caramel coloring), and fresh as well as fried onions.

..for Satan!

I like cookies.
There is literally nothing unique about a burger with bacon cheddar and lovely bbq sauce (probably sweet baby ray's or something equally generic)

Is it actual karaage or just friend chicken that they are trying to make sound fancy?

I like when stores roast hatch chiles in their walkup. It smells enough like weed that the roasters would have plausible deniability for any suspicious scents on their clothes.

Cheese, wow. And carm-ons (what I call carmelized onions) (I do not call them that) under the cheese is a great move

This 4th I learned that, if you're cooking in a pan, it's better to smash your patties when frying them up. The thick ones weren't as good as the Five Guys-looking ones. Not sure why.

I didn't have cheese :cry:

Smashed patties are super-easy to fry up on a pan, grittle, or grill too. I don't know why more people don't do it.

You do need a pretty decent rangehood or extractor fan to do it inside. It's a smokey business.

Better than frying chicken though in my experience.

The Irish can't drink. What you always have to remember with the Irish is they get mean. Virtually every Irish I've known gets mean when he drinks.
Leftover patty from grilling on the 4th, mayo, mustard, last of my homemade pickle chips, red onion, colby jack, bacon and a crispy fried egg. Not a bad breakfast.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

I'm actually super confused about these because I'd have thought federal product identity regulations would've occupied this space. Normally if the feds regulate a thing, the "space is filled" and states can't second-guess them.

We had a similar argument about plant based mince being sold in the meat section of grocery stores. I think it just led to more exposure of plant based mince and more sales.

While I agree it's a bit silly, free speech absolutely should be curtailed when it comes to food labeling so their argument is dumb as gently caress. The real argument against it is no one confuses veggie burgers for actual beef burgers and this push is just asinine machismo.

The stack is a combo of their classic burger (Angus beef, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, Betty’s special sauce) and their Shroom burger (Crisp fried mushroom patty with melted Gouda & Gruyere cheese, lettuce, tomato, Betty's special sauce).

There was so much cheese, it was delicious.

Looks pretty good mate, my only concern would be the beef becoming background noise to the mushroom and cheese

A great burger in Chicago, maybe the best, from Au Cheval. Put your name in and wait 3 hours, take a walk, and come back to a good meal.

This is the first time I can say a burger and the place oozes sexy.
