The Perfect Burger

Recommended Posts

Absolutely DO NO believe in bacon on a burger.

 

Really think that shiit is overdone. Would you wrap a porterhouse in bacon?

 

Sounds great in the Rachel Ray Society, but actually focks shiit up.

 

what? bacon on a burger has been around since far before "rachel ray society". its a pretty classic topping. 2-3 slices of bacon on top of a burger does not equal wrapping a porterhouse in bacon. :wacko: you're also comparing one dish that was made to be dressed up (burger) with one that was not.

 

ever had bacon wrapped meat loaf? ;)

I know right -- it's just a rinky dink little shack but damn theres a reason theres a huge line there. I live like 1 mile away so I eat from there a few times a month when it's open - closed in the winter... The Swiss Char burger with Grilled onions cannot be beat

Sounds like this place.

Soggy, not crispy bacon like you get at a fast food place is bad.

 

Crispy, perfectly cooked bacon ... makes everything better.

Go have a bacon wrapped filet, but first have some bacon wrapped scallops. They are delightful

The only reason to wrap a filet in bacon is to hide the crappy beef. If its a good filet, it doesn't need the bacon

Sure it doesn't NEED it. But that said, wrapping the edges with bacon doesn't mean its crappy beef.

have to agree that bacon on burgers, bacon wrapped filet (or scallops) do not exemplify the trend to overuse bacon. these complimetary combos have been around sustantially longer than "bacon on everything" we see nowadays.

Is never put bacon in a great cut of steak but bacon belongs on a burger and in my stomach.

I like filet too much to disguise the flavor even with another delicious food.

sounds like you should have tartare on a bun. we wouldn't want the flavor of the grill to enhance the meat for you in any way.

steak frites on a bun. classic pairing.

 

95% of the time i have a burger at home, i am making it. now, i don't go for wine on the rare occations i hit in-n-out or 5 guys. for the restaurants in between it depends on the place. if i am in a pub, likely a bier. if a nicer restaurant for lunch, bier or possibly a red.

Preach. Avocado smoothies go great with taro burgers though.
