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!!

And how do you get maillard crust on the side of the burger?
 
Definitely some monkey shines afoot.
 
Oh just say sear dammit! It's a burger!!! Do you go to the bakery and say "Nice maillard on that loaf!"? :lol:
 
Hehe. You and your maillard.

The self-proclaimed first burger in America from Louies Lunch was/is steamed.
 
Negative.
 
Louis Lunch has always used vertical broilers.
 
You're thinking of Ted's.
 
And for the record, no matter what the Lassen family says, Fletcher Davis in Athens, Texas predated Louis 
 
hamburger sandwich by almost 20 years.
 
Many have made claims and it may never be known who actually created the first hamburger.
 
It certainly wasn't Louis Lunch.

You can cook a burger however you want.
 
As The Fonz would say....
 
"Exactamundo".
 
There's rules and there's no rules in cooking burgers.
 
There's only styles that folks like.
 
Some only dig on backyard over charcoal burgers.
 
Some folks like a fried or flat top burger.
 
Some like a true flame broiled.
 
And then again some like a fast food style burger.
 
My favorites are either an INO fast food style burger, which btw is totally fresh,
 
or a burger I cook myself using smash technique.
 
I like to be liking grinding my  own meat for burgers to.
 
Lately I've been thing a 50/50 blend of ground brisket and short rib.
 
More expensive for sure but....
 
 
Have Mercy!

A while back I tried out WC frozen sliders.
 
They weren't bad.
 
YOUR post on the other hand....
 
 
You're FIRED!
 
We went to a hipster place for lunch and they had some decent burgers. Wifey got one that was ground bacon n brisket. Tasted good as hell. I had a porkbelly sammy with smoked goat cheddar, jalapeno and some frilly bbq sauce. The pork belly was good but I like wifeys burger better. She should of got the smoked bacon on it. 
they had nothing to cook with.. except the stove sitting behind his dumb ass
 
Burgers in the toaster wooooooo!
 
It's a Louis Lunch vertical broiler hack!!!!!!
