Which restaurant do you feel makes the best burgers?

[@godjhaka7376]

No matter how they taste or the restaurant, you're still eating low/no vibrational dead bodies that put you in a grave quicker as humans aren't meant to eat meat.

[@hellhound1389]

There's only 2 places I go for a burger that's better than my homemade. One is a franchise (Schoops) while the other is a mom and pop (the burger bar). I'd rather have homemade with caramelized onions and pepper jack cheese

[@da900smoove1]

I'm 56 and find that this is about 85% correct for home burgers prep and cooking.... fat ratio of meat, order of lettuce, onions, pickles, definitely the buns used and Butter... any burger just off the grill/pan is hot enough to melt American cheese... How people eat cold burgers and especially fries is amazing too me

[@vorpal120]

Plus, a well seasoned grill or cast iron skillet for cooking actually makes a difference. You get a burger at lunch at a restaurant that has been using the grill or skillet since breakfast and you will get a flavorful complex burger. I feel like home cooks, generally don’t maintain a cast iron skillet or grill correctly to make a good burger. Indeed, I agree that the construction of correct ratio makes a burger even better. Home cooks tend to make a poor burger without restaurant training. Same goes for deli style sandwiches. Moreover, home cooking, as a whole is skill that is severely lacking, nowadays. This skill is mediocre at best for most people. It is a bummer.

@@godjhaka7376 you are born you eat you grow and you die.... it's been human nature to hunt and fish and farm.... you can eat plants till day you die but your going to die.... cheat your self of what you like... you are probably in the minority of what humans consume for a diet.... but do you and stop complaining on pages that you should not even be watching. Plus please explain why people who don't eat meat are so hell bent on making plants based meats to taste like meat if humans aren't naturally eating meat????

[@hellhound1389]

There's a term for people that eat cold burgers and fries... THEY'RE CALLED PARENTS!!! Unless the kids are off with some other poor soul the wife and I never eat hot food

Old fashioned steakhouses always brushed their burgers (and steaks) with melted butter. That really adds more flavor.

[@namvet1968]

Gordon Ramsay does that with steaks.

Yeah, to hell with that. Meat, REAL MEAT will never go out of style since those globalist idiots want it all fro themselves while YOU eat bugs...

[@rainbowblossom143]

I recommend using a cast iron skillet if you have it. It gives it a nice crust

[@xeroxcopy8183]

nice pfp bro

[@hellhound1389]

I use my restaurant quality stainless that acts just like cast iron but I don't have to baby it. I have a pantry full of hand-me-down cast iron skillets that never get used but are reseasoned once a year to keep in my families good graces

[@onedelish]

yummy

[@qanondon2100]

Check your local Costco or Sam’s, some will sell the 88/12 ground chuck 10 pound, chub they mix to make their bulk ground beef, some local stores carry a good 85/15 ground chuck for a little more. Add a little sugar for a nice crust as well😎🚬

[@jacktastick]

A butter burger means you toast the bun in butter.

[@peterdaigle4772]

Lean ground has not been in my house in decades

[@thaisstone5192]

Ghee, baby. Score yourself some high milk-fat butter (the Irish stuff is the bomb) and make your own ghee. 2 tablespoons of ghee per 1 pound of meat and lightly work it in. Screaming hot cast iron pan, salt one side flop into pan with a push with heel of your hand and let her fly a full 3 and a half minutes. Flip, have your cheese slices at room temp dump on top and put a lid on the pan. 3 and a half minutes, pull off and let rest 3 minutes and bun up. Finely diced fresh onion is a must. Stuff sliced ones.

[@martinadams7949]

i love cold cheese

[@raymartin3527]

I like my burgers much better than eating them out. Restaurants are always so afraid to season them. Salt, pepper, garlic and or onion powder.

[@pbohush]

The cheese, lettuce, tomato slices, etc, go on top of the burger not beneath it. That’s why they’re called toppings. Not bottomings.

[@m.vaithy3307]

Hey ❤️

[@solutionsturk9843]

My burgers always taste better than the restaurant. I only eat restaurant burgers because I don't feel like cooking or I am out with friends or both😁

[@WebDeva7]

The secret ingredient is…bacon and bacon grease 🥓

[@debbieball900]

i ALWAYS PREFER my BURGERS TO ANY RESTAURANT, EXCEPT THE OUTBACK

[@monkeyguy80]

Because of MSG tells us ALL ya! 🤔😅

[@jimmycain8669]

No restaurant burger I’ve ever eaten can come close to the burgers I make. I use a cast iron skillet and fry it in organic ghee or avocado oil. I would never smash a burger cause I like em juicy.

[@glenndelconte2648]

I can say without a doubt, you can not buy ANY hamburger that tastes like the Big Fast food chains. They have a "proprietary" ingredient list and process that you will not be able to reproduce. Search Food distributors and you can buy hundreds of different, ready to cook hamburger patties, fresh, frozen, cheap to expensive. Typically you need a business account and purchase a lot to be considered. Show me a Krystal bun or a pickle that tastes like McDonald's. You can find burgers to match a local pup, Sonic and a few other places. You can also find and buy McDonald's cheese if you wish to spend hundreds of dollars for a minimum order. It is fun to try and replicate. Some fast food products are so cheap and nasty, you can see the increased amount of grease in some "Sausage Biscuits" these days. RTM enterprises, aka Arbys, used to sell their "jelly roast beef" to Hardees. It wiggles until cooked and never looks like a real roast beef? I made the copycat McDonalds fries posted on you tube, but it takes a long time to make. Enjoy the flavors they provide, or make your own. Buy a Fast food burger "Plain", meat, cheese and bun. Then you know what it really tastes like!

[@floepiejane]

Taste better at a restaurant?! No way. My burgers rock. I know exactly how to make them because I made them from scratch at restaurants... and I took advice around the yootoobs. I'd marry Laura in the Kitchen if she'd have me.

[@georgeprchal3924]

How are any of these things things people cannot do themselves?

[@krisjaynav]

The reason my burgers are better at work is simply because of mise en place and equipment. I had rendered clarified herb butter, oxtail fat, compound butter, red oak firewood, and a plancha.

[@timothyslaughter476]

A great burger is an experience of taste and texture.....don't be like 5 guys and wrap a hot burger in foil so it steams and turns the whole thing into a soggy mess. They should know better. Handle a good burger with proper care.

[@zeb_reynolds]

five guys burgers are probably the best in fast food lol

[@timothyslaughter476]

@grantwestbrook even the fast food places know you don't wrap burgers or any sandwiches in straight aluminum foil. Foil fused with a layer of parchment or waxed yes. Strail foil ....no ! You get a steam burger. I get all my toppings on the side at five guys. I know what I'm doing when it comes to food....lol. But you have a great day. Enjoy!!

[@cherry_top]

@@zeb_reynoldsFive guys is way too expensive to be considered fast food at this point.

[@edwardwd3zk]

Nope my wife’s homemade burgers are better than at a restaurant 😊

Why can I plug in a USB cable on the first try?

[@chuckyd03]

Every time they mentioned I could hear Gordon Ramsay in my head yelling no hahaha. Gotta have 80/20. US Wellness meat got a 55/45 burger patties I love.

[@unknown183]

The secret is sugar. Add some sugar to the meat before cooking.

[@unknown183]

@Sean Embry ... and more sugar.

I disagree with frying a burger is better than on an out door grill, out door grill is way better.

[@michaelb9537]

Me clicking just to see who thinks home cooked burgers aren’t as good

[@jasonbean2764]

I don't eat burgers anymore. I know that it is likely that any ground beef is likely to be sourced from multiple cattle. You're not eating parts of one animal; you're eating parts of many animals. Some could be infected with many diseases, including mad cow disease. This disease attacks the neurosistem and is incurable. Too high a price for a burger. It's best to buy whole cuts of beef and grind them yourself. Chuck and top sirloin work well. But why grind the meat!? Just cook it and eat.:)

[@hellhound1389]

Unless it's from my favorite diners I can do better at home

[@karenharris3183]

it they cook I do not is why it always better

[@thankyoucomeagain9130]

Home made burgers are the best so this is wrong....

[@carz5531]

As if. I've never had a burger at a restaurant that is better than any home cooked burger. What a joke.

[@karenharris3183]

great marketing to use up all that beef fat . Tell them use 80 % . funny .

[@stuartlusk7643]

False. I will take my homemade burgers over a restaurant burger ANYDAY!

[@zarakikenpachi-ds1ud]

id rather have a home made burger. way better, way cheaper...
