A well seasoned, properly cooked (MEDIUM RARE) burger made with quality meat doesn't need any toppings, except MAYBE cheese.

Americans are under the assumption that MORE = BETTER and they load up their burgers with 100 toppings and sugary sauces until it tastes like a birthday cake instead of meat. This may be because they are FAT and STUPID, or because the fake mass produced meat they consume has no taste.

The burger should also be THICK, and JUICY, not paper thin and burnt.

It's okay Americans, it's okay, you're still learning. But you should really return to proper form, the German form.

currywurst is but a weak imitation of the superior frikandel speciaal

I stole some tips from the leaked McDonalds menu
Use a mix of salt, pepper, msg, and it was either garlic or onion powder but it wasnt both ill have to look but season the fuck out of the burgers with that
When the burgers are done and assembled wrap them in foil and throw them in a 150F preheated oven for about 8 minutes to melt the flavors together. thats what the heat lamps used to be for. there is lots of good shit in there.

An 85% lean, well salted and peppered burger, cooked medium rare, is indeed all you really need. But there's nothing wrong with some toppings. Mine I seasoned with soy sauce and worcestershire sauce, respectively. I hope this doesn't upset you

This true, I also wouldn't risk a medium rare burger in the States as our beef standards need improving.

One or two patties thoroughly smashed and slammed with cheese and a miniscule amount of mustard.

Give me RAW or give me well done. Medium makes my poo smell like vomit and rotten entrails.

I used to do this but then I realised I love burgers that are stacked with toppings and so that's how I make them

>>21483906 (OP)
i disagree. cheese is essential and stacking the patties makes for a more delicate experience. you also fail to mention the importance of the bun. the bun needs to be airy and sweet, sesame is optional.

Shut up bitch, burgers are a flavor symphony and meat is only the leader of the choir.
If you want to taste nothing but meat get a steak.

This, i will also add sauce, raw onion rings and gherkins

A very simple minimalist burger can be good although I think you're being a little extreme to say one literally just needs bread meat and cheese. Simply adding mayo, or perhaps mustard depending on taste can be a positive addition.

>Americans are under the assumption that MORE = BETTER and they load up their burgers with 100 toppings and sugary sauces until it tastes like a birthday cake instead of meat. This may be because they are FAT and STUPID, or because the fake mass produced meat they consume has no taste.

Agree. Burgers don't need mayo and mustard and ketchup. Pick 2. All three are overpowering. Burgers don't need BBQ sauce. Burgers don't need a ton of exotic toppings like fried onion rings or avocados. While you can do that stuff if you want it's largely superfluous imo.

>The burger should also be THICK, and JUICY, not paper thin and burnt.

Wrong. While I will say that one thick patty is better than one paper thin patty the ideal assembly is a number of thin patties with cheese layered between them to the desired thickness you're looking for. This provides a much better textural and taste experience than just one large patty that will be charred on the outside and mushy and undercooked on the inside. This also helps to prevent shrinkage of the patty after cooking so that you can have that perfect meat to bun ratio. Also while I would again agree that a minimalist burger can be good the standard conception of the burger (meaning bread - meat - cheese - lettuce - tomato - pickles) exists for a reason. The crispness of the veggies adds a textural crunch to the soft bread and juicy meat. The coldness of the veggies adds a temperature juxtaposition alongside the warm patty. A simple burger is missing these elements and is a less complete experience.

Not reading all of that, retard. A burger doesn't need all those extra toppings but it is typically improved by adding them. You're not special for liking plain burgers. KYS.

>>21483906 (OP)
I don't do cheese on burgers, but I like extra raw onions.

>>21483906 (OP)
I like that OP typed this essay out thinking this is new information to Amerifats

ehhh
just ground beef patty is pretty bad by itself regardless of how you fry it
you need to add much more dough and a bunch of other ingredients into to the ground beef to get cutlets that you can actually eat "without any toppings"

>>21484881
Wrong.

I will eat just a ground beef patty seasoned with salt and pepper. Maybe just some ketchup for dipping.

Charbroiled beef alone is one of the best flavors on Earth. Less adulterants, the better.

>>21484889
>I need HFCS tomato-flavored jelly to fix ground beef patty taste
that's what I was talking about, yes

if you don't enjoy your burger with some nice onions and/or pickles you're objectively autistic, which is fine, but you should know that your taste is genetically and deterministically inferior

>>21483918
Your burger is still raw lmao

>>21483926
This kills the american

>>21483906 (OP)
I want raw diced onions, muenster, and garlic aioli on mine. Also the bun should be sourdough, potato roll, pretzel, or english muffin.

If you're ok with treating a burger like a shittier steak you go right ahead
As for me I'm going to be using a ton of garlic powder with the salt and pepper, buttering and toasting my bun, and adding a nice melty cheese and a sunny egg

>>21483906 (OP)
>A well seasoned, properly cooked burger made with quality meat doesn't *need* any toppings
Agreed. But I'm putting them on anyway because it makes the burger even better.

>>21483906 (OP)
for me, it's medium
and you're wrong. even just a little blue cheese (on its own) can elevate a juicy burger
