ITT best burger you ever ate, where you got it, how much did it cost.

Pic: average looking cheeseburger from a random restaurant in Amsterdam. It was kinda expensive, but it was in the city-center, and I was on holiday, so I didn't really care (and I didn't even had high expectations for it). It was 12€ with the fries.

12 yuro fun bucks? Wow.

>> No.4897155

You paid 12€ for that? It looks like crap to me.

>> No.4897158

Not sure if it's 'the best i have eaten ever', but there is a burger place called 'Ole' that i keep coming back to. I love their burgers and their chili sauce and prego sauce is amazing. It's $10.95 for a meal or $6.95 for just the burger I think.

>> No.4897162

>>4897155

I agree, but it tasted WAY better than it looked... and I don't know if you ever been to any major city with lots of tourists, but 12€ is not that much for a slow-food burger (not cheap, but yolo)

Elvis burger at Chicago airport.

Pimento cheese
Bacon
Deep fried onions
Lettuce
Tomato

Being an airport burger it was expensive and the place itself was eh, but it was simply amazing.

There is also one burger place in Toronto airport, main hall, where 2 moveing sidewalks start and they separated by a wall of glass...terminal 1. They have great burgers as well.

Why would you take a picture of a burger that doesn't show anything between the buns? What are you trying to hide?

I took a picture with the stuff between the buns, but it got all blurry and stuff... Poor photographic skills FTW

It's hard to think of the best burger I ate, but one that comes to mind is a homemade burger. I'll have to try and find the recipe again.

But they were sliders, homemade patties from ground beef that I bought from my friends dad that raises beef cattle (Dont remember what kind). I can't remember what buns I used, but I topped the burger with a garlic aioli sauce that had tequila in it and then some caramelized onions too.

Also I tried my hand at some spicy tequila chicken, it wasn't as good as the sliders.

Portabella sliders from this random bar in Texas. I'm not a vegetarian or anything, but these were so god damn good. I think for 5 of them and fries it was like, 7$

>> No.4897236

Was it the burger bar or the burgermeester?
Both are known to have damn good burgers.

One day I''ll try that 350gr wagyu beef burger.

>> No.4897266

My mom and my granny's burgers.
They mix the ground meat with a bit of powdered garlic, chopped up bacon and pepper, and then they fry it.
It just tastes amazing.

As for food chains or stands, prolly some bacon cheeseburger from Fuddruckers' in Katy, TX. Mcallen has kickass Whataburgers as well.

It was 3AM and spitting. I was in an alleyway in SF's tenderloin sat on a milk carton with a bunch of random strangers, all of us drunk off our asses. I ate this towering sourdough and bacon monstrosity from Jack in the Box. In normal circumstances it probably would have sucked, but that was the best burger ever.

So either that or any I cook myself, because burgers are fucking simple and mostly down to quality ingredients.

I don't have a problem paying 15 euros for a decent hamburger with fries. It's not that much when you live in a place where your regular crappy McDonald's is like 9 euros.

Wagyu/kobe beef burgers are a stupid gimmick designed to take your money.

Is it true that bison burgers are good? I'd really like to taste one.

So true, Wagyu/Kobe beef is great because of the marbling and fat distribution in the meat so grinding it up into hamburger patty is like talking about how Rembrandt make great paper fucking paper mache.

Best hamburger I've ever had was the Truffle Burger at Umami Burger in Santa Monica, it blew my mind. Eating it was like scratching an itch you never knew you had.

Is English your second language? You called us both stupid and then immediately agreed with us.

Yes they are. They are a tad dry though, due to their low the meats natural low fat content.

>> No.4897544

>>4897532
I never said anything about adding fat into beef grinding, I was talking about what a travesty it is to grind Wagyu/Kobe up to make a hamburger as it adds next to nothing to the burger itself.

Sorry about my earlier grammatical errors, but yea I too think Wagyu/Kobe burgers are the mark of idiots with too much money and too little knowledge

The one I will go to is in NYC, def will try that one since I have been looking at getting truffles myself, but $150 for like 1 oz is insane. They also have a special here:

"The 5 Spice Duck Burger 15-
House ground duck, peach apple chutney, Chinese 5 spice, Madagascar pepper, topped with crispy duck skin and garlic aioli on a bed of caramelized fennel"

Sounds tempting as well.

Something about crispy fried onions and jalapeños just sends my saliva glands into overdrive.

Place called the Burger Shop in Jefferson Texas. Every single ingredient was farm fresh, straight up build your own burger kind of place.

About $8-10 for a 1/2lb burger with all the fixings you could want, with fries, fried pickles, onion rings, fried jalopenos, or what all ever else side you'd like.
