is it okay to use downvotes for disagreement in this thread?

The wrong kind of bread.

McDonald's is pretty good at that.

Basically when the patty has been reduced the the thickness of a legal pad, you've long since lost the plot.

A good smash patty is an exception.

Shredded lettuce.

I'm fine with leaf lettuce, but that shit just makes an unholy fucking mess.

Being made in Europe pretty much destroyed the one I tried there

Being so large you can't bite into it. Over cooked burger meat. Raw onions. Price.

Killing a cow?

Nah we fixed that

Now it's mayo or those little tiny chopped onions

Too many toppings max should be 4 including lettuce and tomato

Too tall, my mouth can only open so wide and a burger I must struggle to consume is worse than a easier, albeit shittier burger.

Number 15, Burger King foot lettuce

spoiled burger? ruined burger.

Soggy buns due to either failed to toast the inner side or having it sitting on the pass/heater for too long. Same applies to the meat side and the salad side achieving temperature equilibrium.

Too much height. If I have to disassemble the burger to put it in my mouth, it is not a burger anymore. It is just a mess then. Instead of two or three (or more!) patties stacked, try a bigger bun and an equally bigger patty. Or even a thinner bun to get the patty to bun ratio to what a triple patty burger would offer.

Any burger that's not at least mostly pink in the center.

So fuck that "smashed" trash!!!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Thank you! I hate when I ask for a burger rare and they say "oh, we only do smash burgers here." Then I know it's gonna be a gross fucking burger.

Go rare or go home!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Exactly! Talk to any real chef on burger cooking, and they will all emphasize not over working the meat... And these fucks are over here hitting it with a ball-peen hammer!

Somewhat controversially, an egg.

Like, a good, over medium egg? Okay I can do that. I hate a super runny, the yolk blasts you in the face like an unapologetic lover and leaves you to clean yourself up, egg in my burger.

In fact, anything that's made with your Instagram reel in mind. I don't want greasy buns, dripping yolks, and sauces pouring out. If you made a good, juicy burger you wouldn't need all that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I have never had a burger with a fried egg that really added anything to the equation. Anything the egg can do, the meat does better. It's just filler with very little flavor or texture.

And that one time the chef made an amazing egg, it overpowered the burger and the entire equation flipped. Now there was no reason to include the hamburger patty.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

Oh man, do we have different tastes in burgers. Give me that dribbling barbecue, that A1 sauce, that honey mustard, that sunny side up egg, that rare and juicy burger, them pickles.

I want a messy burger, one I gotta wash my hands off after.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I love an egg on a burger, but I philosophically agree with your line of thinking.
