What’s your favorite burger?

This one is from Del Taco. Which I actually like- But it isn’t my favorite.

Yahoo: Whether you like your burger piled high with lettuce and tomato or slathered with chili, you’re in luck. There are plenty of special deals available on Sunday.

Some 57 percent of consumers in the U.S. ate burgers more than once a week in 2015, according to Technomic’s Burger Consumer Trend Report. That number is down slightly from 2013, when 68 percent of Americans reported chowing down on burgers more than once in a week.

Here’s a round-up of where to snag free, discounted and specialty burgers:

  6. White Castle – no cheese, put 5 patties into one bun and slather with hot sauce. Don’t ask why. I just think they are the best of the fast food burgers. Next best, were my mom’s hand made burgers in our store when I was a kid. There are no comparisons to her burgers.

  7. For store-bought my favorite is 5 Guys with cheddar, bacon, grilled onion, and mayo. That’s one mighty good burger!

    But my favorite is the one I make at home. Six oz. of ground round or something in the 15%-20% fat range (the fat is important!). Grilled medium rare, then put on a toasted and buttered ciabatta roll with pepper jack cheese, sliced white onion pieces, and about 6 or 8 slices of pepperoni. A little mayo. Don’t laugh at the pepperoni, try it once and you’ll be hooked and alternate it with bacon.

  8. Bacon cheeseburger with an egg with a runny yolk. Throw away grilled cheese sammitches and replace with two Krispy Kreme doughnuts, brushed with warm bacon grease. Jalapeno onion rings optional. Double checkmate, followed by emergency triple bypass.

    😛

  11. This is on my to-to-someday list.

    Grill on very high heat my home burger as described above until just barely rare so you have a little char on the outside. Lay a slice of white onion on top, then gently dip it in beer batter, the kind you use for onion rings. Again gently, submerge the whole thing in deep fat until golden. I think I’d put that baby on one of those extra-large English muffins, buttered, with not much else.

  20. Thanks, Kat, I don’t think I’ve ever had a DQ burger and now I’ll have to go give it a try!

    When I was a kid (a very, very long time ago) we’d go to DQ for frozen custard. REAL frozen custard, eggs and all, that nobody makes any more. When that was no longer on the menu we just sort of stopped going there. I think maybe we cut of our noses to spice our faces if the burgers are that good!

  21. The high activity of this thread is proof of how weary we all are of politics. We’ve gotta do politics for survival, but we’d rather go back to the halcyon days of
    Not thinking much about it. Discussing burger recipes makes me happy.

  29. I have been cooking up 1/2 pound black angus burgers on a flat grill every Thursday since April at my Elk’s lodge. Choice of cheeses and people can garnish them how they wish, with fries for five dollars. I’ve been told they are the best in the area. I think after cooking several hundred that I have it figured out.

  34. I gotta go with an Aussie Truckstop Burger:

    lettuce, tomato, beef patty, Runny egg over easy with the yolk broken, grilled onions, grilled ham, pineapple, sliced beets, BBQ sauce.

    Can’t deny your roots.

  37. Uncle Al I think the same thing about that white gravy that you put with scones for breakfast.
    Beets are great for me but it I acknowledge it might be like Vegemite for you guys.

  39. I dig the Famous Dave’s Classic Burger, they mix in some of their Brisket into the ground beef and it gives it a nice, firm texture which I like, and a great flavor. Denny’s serves up a damn fine burger and I concur; DQ Burgers are fine eating. My numero Uno: Whataburger…nuff said!

  44. @Uncle Al. I’m in south/central Illinois. Moonshine and their famous Moon burgers is within reasonable driving distance, and a couple people told me mine have them beat. Of course, they may have just heaped on the praise, so I’ll keep cooking on Thursdays. I’ve been getting the ground beef from a local butcher shop owned by a family who have raised their own beef for generations. It’s fantastic.

  48. With all the cash McD has generated the last 50years, you would think Ronald would have stayed in his own venue and hired Brutus to collect the debt from Wimpy. Why take the risk of getting your ass beat by Popeye?

  50. BEST: Nothing but at home, 25/75 ratio fresh-ground from the meat packing plant near us, ¾ lb patties marinated in Worcestershire/onion/garlic/black pepper for a bit, topped with a Velveeta slice and a couple of thick Wright’s bacon strips, charcoal flame-kissed to med rare perfection.

    PUBLIC: toss up between 5 Guys and DQ. Both are pretty fair when on the road.
