Burgers? Hell Yeah!!

Hey y'all looking through the sacred THP scrolls it is apparent that most awesome of foods is sorely neglected. That's right chidren's, I'm talkin' about BURGERS!! Sliders. Pub burgers. Fast food style burgers. Gastro burgers. Cheffy burgers. CHEESEBURGERS!!! Single and double meat. Triple meat. Extreme burgers. Man vs. Food burgers....the list is endless but y'all get the idea.

We won't go into the endless arguments of who created the first hamburger (Fletcher Davis) or what meat qualifies as a burger. Nonetheless....here are the rules for posting in this soon to be awesome thread:

1. Any meat goes. Beef, chicken, pork, lamb, rat, fish. Whatever, hunt it down and kill it with a knife. Its all good and I've included the options other than the traditional beef so all the kids can play in the pool. If its ground and round, its all good.

2. The damn 'thang has to be between 2 slices of bread or bun. White bread. Brioche. Sourdough. English muffin. Whole wheat. Its got to be bready. No wrap crap or wild pizza dough like chingaderra's.

3. Any cooking method goes. Grilled. Broiled. Griddled. Steamed. Deep fried. Zippo lighter.

4. Because I love to ridicule to no end tree hugging granola wimps and hippy's.....
Veggie burgers are all good. Just be prepared for the woe and gnashing of teeth and smack talk that will soon come if you post it. It will be all in fun and all good.

5. You suck at cooking? The only thing that would suck more is if you posted pics of your restaurant burger. For the sake of keeping the comedy rolling...
Any burger you didn't cook or you bought is allowed and is all good. Warning: while allowed, posting pics of BK burgers or their ilk with a splash of tabasco will bring upon you the most ridicule and insults. Even more than a veggie burger!

6. Chile's and/or hotsauce is mandatory on the burger. ON the burger, no crap on the side.

7. Pics are mandatory. No posting about a burger you made or ate without pics. You will suffer extreme ridicule and experience much loathing. Just don't do it.

8. Include a list of condiments and toppings. Mayo. Mustard. Onions. Cheese. Extract of male baboon spermatazoa. Whatever. Post it.

There it is y'all. Can you get down brown with it? Allrighty then...

RELEASE THE KRAKEN!

Here's mine. Sliders. 80/20 ground chuck from Matador Meat Market, Frisco, Tx. Cooked over fine diced yellow onions in cast iron using the smash technique. Toasted Pepperidge Farm slider buns with mustard, the onions, dill pickle and jalapeno pickle slices. Kraft brand American Plastic Cheese.

Adult beverages are encouraged in the pics but not mandatory. Dig that awesome cast iron crust sear!

So bring on your burgers. And that means those damn Aussie's and their stinkin' beet root too!!

I've never eaten lamb,
 
It's true?
 
Im not like the lamb. My father is a farm owner,  when I was a kid  I spent a lot of time on the farm. Ahi ate animals that are raised on the farm and lamb prepared not like me at all.
 
Years ago, my brother oook on the grill a Patagonian lamb, reared in semi arctic area and was completely different than I knew lamb.
 
lambs raised in arid and cold regions have different flavor and very tasty, albeit distrust I eat knowing it was lamb
 
Yeah, I've not eaten much in the way of game meat ... venison, lamb, veal, duck, rabbit, pheasant, gator, shark, wild turkey, etc ...
 
The only one I don't eat out of ethical concern is veal, the rest I just haven't really ever chosen OVER things on a menu that appealed more to me ...
 
Rattlesnake is good sheit. Tastes like chicken and flaky like fish, used to get it at a restaurant in Tuscon. Never cared for rabbit or any other varmint. Alligator is good the few times i've had it. Lion is gross so is kangaroo and javalina. Snapping turtle soup is good, ostrich was ok. love quail, pheasant and other small  game birds. Goose a lil greasy for me. My dad used to make Dove hearts wrapped in bacon. Really good lil snacks. 
 
Never had lamb that I liked.. always tastes like the way the monkey house at the zoo smells. 
 
My bestfriends sister always dated arabs and one night we was over for dinner and they guys had boiled sheeps head for dinner... you can imagine. white milky eyes, flubby boiled white skin... that sheit was gross as gross. 
 
grant.. if you are interested in experimenting with game meat, an Elk burger would be a good place to start.   It has little to no gamey taste ,  and imo actually tastes like really high quality beef  with a hint of sweetness.

Hit the farmers market yesterday and my wife saw some nice ground lamb , so Lamb burgers it is.  
 
I am a purist with beef burgers,  TB's smash burger technique is my favourite way now but lamb has so much flavour I think it can stand up to extras..

Yum. I love a good lamb burger. I usually rock some tatziki sauce mine. I like what you put in the patty!
