/ck/ - Food & Cooking

As a food, the Mcburger doesn't encapsulate shit, the meat is pretty tasteless, the pickles are lame and the bun is way too sweet. I think a more subtle bun, a freshly ground patty cooked well, good pickles, ketchup and mustard would be as pure as possible.

aboo aboo look at this babby farting out his shit opinion trying to look like he knows anything.

I feel that lettuce and tomato are a requirement.

A Whopper sans mayo is a bretty good representation of distilled burgerdom.

If the Big N' Tasty were still offered, it would receive my vote over the Whopper.

Why is this fag still here? Hasn't he been banned like a hundred times already?

>>5232738
>I feel that lettuce and tomato are a requirement.
Yeah? Well I feel that lettuce and tomato are to a PURE BURGER what fucking spinner rims and hydraulics are to a Model T Ford your move assbait.

FTFY

>>5232749
It's not about taste you fuckwit.
Goddamn you're dumb, just stop posting.

>>5232754
The mcdonalds burger is by far not the purest burger burger of burgerdom. because the purest burger of burgerdom has to be something you know, that actually tastes good. The burger needs to be perfect, it needs to capture every bit of that feeling you get when you bite into a burger and you're like that, hooked.

Fresh ground beef patty, small, thin, not big, on a lightly grill toasted bun, with ketchup, some pickle slices, dill, and allowed to come to room temperature, some yellow mustard, little touch of diced white onion, and a single slice of cheese.

The burger has to be seared on both sides evenly, none of that gray colorless bullshit, a pure burger should be juicy but nice and seared on the outside.

The Super-sonic cheeseburger made like that, that, for fast food, really captures that feeling perfectly, or In and Out or five guys.

It certainly isnt mcdonalds with it's frozen shit tier pink slime turned gray and sugar everywhere diaburger.

Just a fucking 1/4# 85/15 medium skillet burger on a toasted bun

>>5232746
I don't think lettuce and tomato are part of the quintessential burger but they can certainly be added if someone want's to.

>>5232766

You need some condiment or even just some fried onions.

>>5232781
u mad

>>5232781
You are a huge stinking turd of a human.

thin patty, american cheese, onions, pickles, mustard

The human race as a whole is fucked and I don't want to go down with this ship.

definitely not mc donald's one. burger patty should be medium rare, not well done. and the bun should be actually a bakery product.

Why?

>>5232754
Do you just want us to leave you alone in the thread. Because that's fine by us. YOu can sit in your pillow-fort trying to forget about how sad you are by agreeing with yourself in your own special little snowflake thread.

Dirt-cheap fat-dense ground beef molded into a baseball, pressed flat and grilled up while drunk. The pink slimier the better.

A homemade burger i reckon.

>>5232901
Beef and bread isn't enough for flavour and a burger without sauce can be too dry.

Toasted bun
Crisp lettuce, not iceberg
Slice of tomato
Decently thick patty, seared and juicy
American cheese (not pre-sliced)
White onion slice/ rings
Fresh pickles, not the overly-acidic fast food pickles
Ketchup
Yellow mustard

Uncle Sam would be proud of that burger.

>>5232720
Simple 80/20 ground beef patty, seasoned only with a little salt, on a high quality but simple bun which has been lightly toasted with butter. Nothing else added to it. No toppings, no sauces, final destination.

Bun, lighted buttered, lightly toasted.

Ketchup.

Mayo

Onions, diced or stripped.

Tomato, Sliced.

Lettuce.

Pickle, circle or strip cut.

Beef, 1/3 to 2/3rd pound patty

Ketchup

Mustard

Bun Heel

This thread is proof /ck/ has gone to shit. The fact that people are actually replying to the shitposter....jesus fuck, /ck/.

I agreed with you except on the white onion. I prefer red on a solid backyard burger.

Well that settles it. /ck/ is by far the most autistic and/or elitist board on 4chan.

You guys are utterly and totally missing the point. Is there anyone who can read and understand words who wants to post the CORE BURGER?

Protip: It's not a recipe or an opinion about McDonalds.

It's really not, it's bad but /tv/ is far worse.

Don't feel too bad brah. Let me guess, first picture of a hamburger found on google right?

>>5233434
But you cared enough to shitpost and flame and risk a ban to tell me? It was that important to you, but "nobody" cares? You care. You just told me.

Why don't you contribute instead of trolling and shitposting. You'll enjoy 4chan a lot more.

:^)

>>5233428
I just don't understand what you mean by core burger. I'd think that the core burger should be simple but tasty. I don't think McDonalds burgers are tasty, so I disagree with them being the core burger, but I guess that breaks the rule of "don't post opinions about McDonalds" so I don't know what you want. You're basically just saying "discuss this, but don't disagree with me directly or indirectly"

>>5233453
You have such tremendous reading comprehension problems, I don't even know where to start trying to unfuck your mind. I'd actually prefer if you just didn't post in this thread anymore until you re-read the entire thread, word for word, and can contribute without making yourself sound like a simpleton.

thx.

except a wendys burger is better

in n out cheeseburger. it doesn't get as basic as that.

Just look at that burger. They barely even try to disguise the fact that the patty is about 1/16 of an inch thick. That shit is all bun.

Hardee's Thickburgers are the essence of burger. Look at that fucking burger. A patty--substantial, but not too thick--lovingly placed upon a bed of tomato, onion, lettuce, and pickles. A slice of shitty American cheese melted on the top and then slathered in ketchup, mustard, and mayo. All of this carefully wedged between a delicious seeded bun. That is the essence of burger. Not your pitiful little coaster that you call a hamburger.

>>5233507
But a cheeseburger is already not just a basic burger anymore, isn't it?

do people honestly attach real email addresses to 4chan posts? googling it links us to your google plus account, by the way

your thread is dumb and you should feel dumb

OP is a huge faggot for even suggesting McDonalds. Confirmed for junkyard dog.

"Pure" burgers don't come from mass market chains where everything is premade in a factory 2000 miles away and the Mcmonkeys just heat everything up. They come from burger stands, local chains, and diners. Pic fucking related. All the most memorable, straight up delicious standard burgers (not gourmet or unusual burgers) have come from either a walk up burger stand or local place. Pic fucking related.

>>5233543
Best answer in the thread by far. Thank you for contributing Anon, I think you may be right there.

>>5233513
You're free to chase the threads of that email address as far as they will take you :^)

I have no picture but The Porter's cheeseburger in Atlanta is the best burger I've had in a long long time. Toasted bun with a little cheese and butter, perfect fat ratio on the beef, thick cheddar slice, LT and pickled red O with homemade pickles on top and two bacon strips. First time I'd ever enjoyed sweet pickles too. Perfection.

You need the milk shake with the burger without it's a sad looking sandwhich

>>5233499
Of course they're here. Ask sceak.

I think the whopper.

Mcd can hardly be called a burger because it hardly contains any hamburger meat.

>>5233627
y

a "show" burger would be a plain egg-wash white bread bun, 1/4 pound of ground 80/20 beef in a patty, grilled medium, 3 medium sliced vidalia onion rings, 2 dill pickle slices (long), 1 large leaf of butter lettuce folded to fit, and 2 medium thickness roma tomato slices.

condiments would be a simple brown mustard and a canola oil based mayonnaise mix on the bottom bun, with a simple tomato paste/white vinegar/sugar ketchup on the top bun.

This is the most basic hamburger, and encapsulates the spirit of burgerdom in the most normal of ways.

>>5233708

so, let me get this:

you don't want people to post existing burgers, but you don't want a recipe either?

I think you've made an impossible request.
I reject your conditions, and declare that recipes should be posted.

You need to actually give a way to fulfill your request for it to be valid. No need to thank me.

>>5232720

A potato roll, one or two 1/8 oz patties, a slice of melty American cheese, pickles, a little bit of white onion, and ballpark mustard.

>>5232720
Most "pure" burger can never come from a chain, so your McDolan's hamburger theory is discarded.

To be a hamburger you need a ground meat patty and a bun. This isn't that pure though because nobody does this, burgers come with sauces or toppings yes? So add either mustard or ketchup and you've got the essence of a stripped down only bare basics burger.

Meat, bread, and either ketchup or mustard. Thats it.

Ok now bear with me here, I know In n' Out has their "special sauce", but a plain cheeseburger is on the menu as well and you can get just ketchup and mustard if you ask.
It's got a nice fluffy, lightly toasted bun, delicious beef (fresh never frozen), and sure, you can take the veggies off if you want, but a true burger needs lettuce, tomato, and onion.
That looks like fucking America to me.

>>5233980
OK, where would you FIND that burger? It's not sufficient to say "well, you make it at home..." because every homemade burger is going to be very very different from all other burgers, homemade or chain. Therefore, a homemade burger can never "encapsulate the essence of burgerdom as it is defined in modern culture"

That's why the people posting just recipes are just, well, kind of not very smart. They're just not capable of thinking about things very hard, and get angry and defensive when you point that out.

>>5233970
Yeah that's what I posted in my OP pic. Thank you for noticing that.

>>5234015
>have to beg to keep away the "special sauce"

ITT:
/ck/ taking Zed's bait

Buns
One American Cheese Single
One thinnish beef patty, softly bowed in the center
Mustard
Ketchup
Two Pickles
One Leaf of Lettuce
One Ring of Onion
One Slice of Tomato

>>5234066

>>5234036

Nowhere, everybody makes different products so that they can compete. If everyone served the same burger then the only factor would be quality and we all know that drives cost up way too much for an American food business
.

Any burger grilled outside with your friends.

For me this means a limited amount of spices in the ground beef, cooked medium well, a lightly toasted bun, mayo, ketchup, hold the mustard, fresh lettuce, onions, pickles, and a slice of a tomato. and usually cheese but not always.

>>5234015
>in-n-out distillation of the perfect fast-food burger
I'm with you there. They have other options but they don't even advertise them. They're built on one kind of burger. No gimmicks or no monthly menu items, just quality fast food.
