How weird! ... a fish burger and two bleu cheeser's (which I don't eat) ...

Musky's OG burger w/ the fried cheese wasn't the winner, I guess ...

This is really quite bizarro ...

 

[Weed]

None of these are burgers I voted for so I dont think it makes sense for me to pick one now.
 

 

[grantmichaels]

Would have liked to see this be a multiple choice of all burgers entered in hindsight ...

I'm really into the multiple choice polls now, I guess.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

It's a list of the winners. There's 4 winners. The other burgers did not win, why would I list them????

 

[grantmichaels]

None of my favorite's were crowd-favorite's is all ...

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Yes and the voting already happened for those...

Great job again.  I went with Musky's stuffed burger.  Very similar to Booma's, blue cheese, bacon etc…but Booma's was just not cooked enough for me.  

 

[grantmichaels]

I'm not going there at all - it's always been clear how it worked ...

I'm just trying to figure out what to do w/ what the crowd gave me for choices, is all ...

 

[SmokenFire]

Of the four finalists I went with MM stuffed.  That cut/maow pic really spoke to me.  All entries were certainly worthy, and I'd have been proud to share them all.  
 
Burgers that I thought didn't get as much attention as they deserved:
 
Hotstuff blend
Keybrdkid stack
D3's blend
DTS blend
Ozzy beef
 

 

[grantmichaels]

I love beef, so it was weird to vote for MM's fish sammie as the best burger, but alas ...

MM's only burger not incl was my overall fav ...

D3's boar offering spoke to me ...

Ashen had my favorite cook application ...

SF's Patty Melt was a heavy weight contender for me ...he condiments, the cook, the ratio's, and the toast job - all spot on ...

But those cheese curds and SL's Chipotle BBQ made me want to sing the Dayum song w/ the Five Guys dude in the car over MM's only losing burger, which got my vote in that category ...

Bleu cheese is currently a deal-breaker for me, until I find out otherwise ...

So, somehow, it's fried fish for the top burger ...

Amazing WC clone job by SS, too ... impressive, really ...

And then I loved tctenten's buns, most ... which is another nod to WaffleBum (who dropped a sick, sick burger this morning) ...

I almost voted for Booma's, as a lifetime achievement reward, and if he didn't already have a crown, I would have ...

Ozzy's french onion burger was also a player, and I suspect he's got a propane torch to melt that cheese being in construction

So many neat things ... I didn't know KBK had a stack like that in him, even, LOL ...

And then there was Heckłe's burger, which I was digging ...



But ... fuckin' flounder burger, I guess, LOL!
I forgot PK ... PK had a fucking righteous entry, too!

Definitely have a torch. However, I use MAPP gas. It gets a lot hotter to sweat cooper fittings quicker.

You are ready for Modernist Cuisine, then!


Your tankless water heater would have won, LOL

 

[The Hot Pepper]

TB voted for the water heater. It wasn't even in the poll. Not sure how he did that.................

 

[geeme]

I just had to vote for Booma's, and I don't even like bleu cheese most of the time. Why vote for it? THE MAN IS MAGIC.
 
Just look at this pic! What's not to love about two different kinds of yellow cheese on those buns???

 
But then, here's the top bun, and the cheese has MAGICALLY transformed into white!

 
Bacon just makes magic even more magic! 
 
 
All did a great job!

 

[grantmichaels]

I tried harder than my usual that night because of two things, JayT's contest effort, and Booma leaving me all alone, crown-less in the #BlackWeberPosse ...

 

[Booma]

Decisions, decisions.....

Geeme, it's funny how much lighting affects things, almost pitch black outside then terrible inside low wattage lighting haha

 

[Bumper]

Damn that's a hard call, why can't we do a multi vote again!  Going to have to go with the walleye burger as I am so overdue for a quality fish burger, let alone one that awesome. But damn its borderline, the flavour in Grant's sliders, the umami of booma's big blue and cheesy… top job gentlemen! 

Lol, damn I am tired, I made the post then forgot to vote.  Thanks for liking MM and prompting me to check!
