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!!
 
You said round, then he asked what cut, then you put london broil in quotes and he went haywire, but love the poem LOL! Classic.

Just don't post london broil, kobe, and maillard all at once or TB's head will explode. Who's down to cook one?

Great cooking on that burgers Grant! And overall impressive! Also it looks like my stuff as ingredients so i really want that!
 
I've had burger myself today:

Cooked burger and onion separately, put together to marinade a bit.
 

Pressed bread and a quick not cooked sauce: marzanini tomatoes, turkish garlic, albanian goat cheese, evo, a Bishop Crown and some Brainstrain. No need of salt cause cheese. Colour was wonderful.
 

Bread is broken because... Burger fell down to the ground!
 

Cheese is a wannabe cheddar cheese (bought as cheddar slices, tastes like singles)
 
Dessert from my mom:

Homemade crostata with homemade marasca cherries jam.

Nice stuff!
 
G, was the your new machine?
 
Nope, that's the OG ... the sandwich bot (aka Griddler) ...
 
That other thing (Cinder) won't come out until next year sometime ... probably late in the year, for the holiday;s I'll bet, too.

They were quite tasty ;) ... with just a little tug left in 'em ...
Yeah I was gonna ask if they were rubbery. I've never used the dried ones like that. I have a bunch drying as I type this, will be used in lots of stews and braising this winter.

they were fine! ...
 
I soaked them in a couple of rounds of hot water ...  once for like 5 mins, and then i dumped that one, and then again for like 15 mins while I was prepping etc ...
 
I deglazed w/ the second water ...
