Well, I'm with you to a certain extent on that. I agree that putting ridiculous, try hard, expensive ingredients on burgers is a waste of good ingredients and inappropriate for burgers. But, I also don't think it's wrong to use good cheeses, or unique ingredients, like say, a homemade or unique condiment, or greens like spinach or arugula, or, like I made the other night, grilled spam and grilled pineapple. There's a fine line between making a delicious and different burger, and being a pompous twat who thinks that throwing money at something makes it better.
Pic related, my spicy hula burger from the other night.

Just finished this bad boy. I really wanted a burger, but was oddly and perfectly limited to what I had on hand.
> grilled cheap ass bun
> Sriracha mayo
> grilled pineapple
> grilled spam
> pepper jack cheese
> grilled beef patty
> caramelized onions
> mustard
> bottom grilled bun

I also fried some French fries, which were heavenly. Awesome fucking meal, in spite of my limited ingredients.
