Does anyone else like their hamburgers plain with just cheese?

>>21405662 (OP)
Sometimes yes. Other times, I'll have everything EXCEPT the pickles. I can't stand pickles.

Reminds me of the sandwiches I'd make myself when I was a little kid. Some Buddig ham or beef and a kraft single on a hamburger bun nuked in the microwave until the cheese melted.

sure, if it's 80/20 or something, but again that defeats the purpose of eating a burger for me without the toppings.

>>21405662 (OP)
A hamburger with cheese is call a cheeseburger, tardo. Plain is just a hamburger.

And yes, I prefer that, because usually it means McD's makes them fresh. Nobody but me seems to order that these days.

>>21405878
By the size of that fat hand it seems you're not that unique at McDonald's you fat piece of shit.

>>21405881
looks normal to me

>>21405662 (OP)
It's called a cheeseburger, you dumb shit, but yes.

>>21405916
and that's sad

>>21405662 (OP)
I've been eating them like that for 20 years

I'm more of a chickenburger man

>>21405668
Pickles are probably the only vegetable I'll eat on a burger.

>>21405662 (OP)
only if its blended into a small ball while im inside a robot suit

Why isn’t a “cheeseburger” buns with cheese only?

>>21405662 (OP)
No.
And that would make it a cheeseburger anyways.

>>21406639
that'd be a cheese bun. a burger needs a patty/fillet.

>>21405662 (OP)
been making on average at least 3 burgers/week for the past few years (i'm actually not overweight at all) and mix up how i make them, but i find the most reliably delicious burger is a double smash with cheese, no onion, no lettuce, nothing else. the tech I started only these past few months that finally elevated my burgers to a new taste level was frying the buns in the grease right there in the pan that comes off the burgers. it seems like a lot of grease; but that's where all the flavor is
this does two things:
1) adds a thicker layer of crunchy toast to the bun as opposed to most other toasting methods
2) allows more of that delicious seasoned beef tallow to soak into your bun, so each bite is that much more savory and juicy

try it, if you aren't already!
ANother thing I've been doing which helps the eating experience is wrapping them after i cook them, in like the thin parchment paper stuff they basically do at fast food (though i'm not using metal-ized versions of the paper). Wrapping the burger up really helps if I'm having onion/lettuce with it, as it makes them all kinda conform and stick together, and you can keep it wrapped up while eating it so it's less likely to slip all over. Finally, the paper wrap stuff makes it a bit faster to clean up, so if you're trying to sling yourself a burger every day for lunch while you work from home, it adds up to time saved

recently all of the above modifications/methods have made my burgs hit that particular note that a fast food (typically wendys) hamburger has when you bite into it; all that extra grease. in-n-out + wendys techniques = yum

>>21405671
never seen this stuff, is it like arbys meat consistency? the way its described sorta makes me think it is; which means I'd fucking love this stuff. is this a uk/british food?

>>21406743
Nah it's american. The beef is kinda similar to Arby's meat, it's very thin and relatively dry. It's kind of in-between standard lunch meat and something shelf-stable like chipped beef. Modern packaging looks more like this if you wanna keep an eye out. It's also dirt cheap, like a buck or less for a 2oz package.

>>21406781
don't be promoting Buddig man. I wouldn't feed that trash to a dog. I bet you eat it on Wonderbread

>>21405668
>EXCEPT the pickles
LMAO. What are you, 6 years old? Grow some taste buds before you speak on burgers again.

I prefer plain with cheese. Don't know why people have to add 3 sauces and 5 toppings to a burger.

>>21406781
>contains up to 15% of a flavoring solution
i don't eat red meat so this is coming from a place of genuine ignorance, but wtf does that mean? why is there so much of it?

>>21407047
Depends on the quality of the meat. If it's genuinely good stuff, sure, you don't need much. If it's less than good, then it's like pizza, you put shit on to try and make it better.

>>21405668
Pickles are great on a smash burger. Though I'm really wondering why nobody uses pepperocinis instead feels like the acidity would cut much better.

>>21407058
It just means they diluted the meat with water so you pay more for less product.

>>21407058
It's generally some sort of brine or stock solution that adds flavor, keeps the meat moist, and inhibits bacteria/mold growth. It also bumps up the net weight on the packaging like the other anon said

>>21407058
>red meat
they do this with turkey as well

>>21406738
made another cheeseburger for lunch
soak that bun in burger grease in the pan. it's the delicious flavor you didn't know you were looking for

>>21405662 (OP)
Mostly. Grilled onions if the have them.

Yes, just meat or chicken and cheddar. Also, thats not a burger, OP.

>>21406725
so you mean a cheese hamburger?
