Oh it's better. They'll spare no butter, oil or whatever else your taste buds enjoy. Salt. You name it, they make it worth 10 bucks. I couldn't make a burger taste that good for 10 bucks. For one, all I have is a stove and 20% fat ground beef from wal-mart. You can't make that shit taste good but the beef is fucking $5.50 a pound.

No it does not. A burger tastes better when you are outside on a nice day with friends and family and you give the burger one last flip to make the grease burst into flames directly before putting it on a bun and eating it while continuing to cook and drink cold beer.

Maybe thats just me but fuck eating burgers at any restaurant, except maybe Five Guys because they are affordable and decent quality.

If you have a grill (or frying pan if you're a homo) you can easily cook the burger exactly how you want it, use whatever cheese you like the best, and dress it with any gourmet condiments you prefer. If I feel creative I put anything from swiss and mushrooms to avocado with habaneros on my burgers.

Kind of off-topic, but...

One time I heated up a skillet as hot as I could, and the fat created a mist that left droplets all over my kitchen. Never again.

Charcoal lets you get the same amount of heat, but the mess stays outside.

It depends on how you cook. One big difference between restaurant cooking and home cooking is salt. Most home cooks are somewhat restrained when it comes to pouring on the salt. Restaurants are not.

Chances are if you usually find restaurant cooking much tastier than your home cooking salt is likely the issue.

Depends on the restaurant. I use supermarket ground beef in my burgers but one of the places I eat out at grinds their own in-house. Obviously fresher, quality beef will taste better.

I am bothered by this. Not too much, but just enough. Education really is garbage. What a half worthless waste.

I kind of skipped around it. Unfortunately, no matter how dead inside and well guarded internally I become, I cannot escape what I seem to naturally be wired for, which is extreme empathy. This kind of cringeable shit just gets to me, it;s awful, uncomfortable, and just makes me feel bad in general. Usually that's not a problem, but being high on stimulants (low histamine, high dopamine in the mesolimbic pathways, cAMP in the prefrontals probably through the roof, I don't even know, serotonin and anadamide I think are the biggest problem right now, kind of feel like I stepped into a time machine) and severely sleep deprived is a major exception. Haven't drank in a few years, might get hammered to complete the BLAST FROM THE PAST this piece of shit but kind of okay in general day is turning into. Shit is turning contradictory, I feel ambivalent and disjointed, and I don't like it.

I think to clarify though, it isn't so much extreme empathy by default. It's more an extreme capacity for empathy if left unchecked, and very finely tuned theory of mind when it comes to judging or evaluating others. Something that, as well, I have not thought about in years.

>What I meant was how the burger tastes takeaway compared to eating in.
My guess is two factors contribute to this. First, a burger is a greasy meal. Greasy food is delicious when it's warm and juicy, but as it starts to cool it congeals, and then it's kinda gross. Many delicious foods die a little every minute between being prepared and consumed. Then there's the experience factor. Most people enjoy a meal more sitting at a table than in their car. The more you degrade your dining experience the less likely it is the food will taste good. This is why some people like street food and others are appalled at the concept. If you see eating on the street as fun you'll enjoy the experience. If you think of it as filthy you won't, regardless of how delicious the food might be.

So I assume you're frying them in a pan?

1. Flip the burger ONCE and ONCE ONLY.
2. Don't press on in, don't slap it with the spatula, don't move it around. Once it's down on the heat, DON'T FUCKING TOUCH IT except to flip it once.
3. If it's still dry, try frying them with the lid on for the first half of cooking.
4. Don't contaminate your meat with shit like bread crumbs and eggs. If your meat doesn't stay together during frying/grilling, you're using meat that's too lean.
5. Go easy on the salt pre-cooking. If you want more salt, add the rest after you've cooked it. Too much salt will draw moisture out of the meat.

1. Nope, McGee did empirical testing and it turns out you can flip your shit as much as you want. Flipping once won't fuck you burgers up but it's not necessary.

3. This is something you have to learn from the range you have. Mine isn't hot enough to leave a top on because the water will build up and the energy drawn out from the vaporization of water prevents a sear from forming.

5. As long as he salts it right before cooking he's fine. It takes a bit for osmosis to fuck your shit up

2 and 4 are spot on. The easiest way to learn is to get a probe thermometer and take your cunts off once they hit 130F. Always let your meat rest for 3 minutes as well

I'm sure a bunch of professional chefs who know how to cook burgers anyway won't fuck up their burgers just by flipping them, but it's not a good idea. Every time you play with it unnecessarily is an opportunity to lose moisture, which you don't want if you're having trouble with dry burgers.

Bought this a month or so ago and had to take a photo as it looked - and subsequently tasted - so damned good. It was actually a delivery which didn't fill me with much hope before receiving it but I can assure you it was one of the best tasting burgers I've ever had.
