Cheeseburger problems

[na_th_an]

You have yet to try Spanish burgers, I mean those prepared in normal bars or restaurants. The "double Special" in a small restaurant in my home town has this:

Code:

A huge burger
a fried egg
bacon
three kinds of cheese
lettuce
fresh tomato
fresh onion rings
ham or even cured ham
sometimes chips (serious)

If you ask for it, they add a sauce: ali-oli (made with mayonnaise, garlic, parsley and a bit of white/green pepper), rochefort (made with that smelly cheese wich tastes like heaven), cheddar (ditto) or pink (mayonnaise + fried tomato). You can add ketchup and mustard if you like too

That's a killer burger, you have to be skilled to hold everything in your hands without anything getting out of place while you eat. It takes time to master it :lol:

Cheeseburger recipes rock! Here's a couple of my own:

The Hellburger
Two quarters (this is half a pound of ground beef) seasoned with cayenne pepper, soy sauce, and barbecue sauce
Lay the heel, add ketchup and then a slice of Swiss cheese
Lay the first burger, top with two strips of bacon and then a slice of Provolone
Lay the second burger, top with a slice of American cheese (yellow or white, I suppose you could use some other mild cheese for this)
Add pickles if desired, then of course, lettuce and tomato
Spread mayonnaise onto the crown and lay it on top

The Hellburger led to the creation of...

The Toxic Burger
WARNING! Do not make this one in the presence of children or anyone with respiratory issues, as it is, as the name implies, rather toxic!
You will need a hand-made 3/4 pound burger for this...anything smaller and it just doesn't work. You will also need ground cayanne, italian seasoning, soy sauce, and the usual fixins
Start by adding the soy sauce to the frying pan, allow to heat up. Add the burger, immediately top with cayanne and italian seasoning. Fry for three minutes, flip it, douse other side with soy sauce, then top with cayanne and italian seasoning again. Three minutes later, flip, add spices. Another three minutes, flip and add more spices. Four dousings of spice should be enough. Now here's the toxic part...as the burger cooks, the soy sauce will eventually boil away, leaving the spices to scorch. When this happens, a whitish smoke will start to come from the pan. Breathing this smoke will create one or more of the following effects: you may start to feel a little high (the smoke impairs oxygen intake enough to cause slight lightheadedness), you might get a minor headache, or you might also start to see a little hazy or discoloured. When the burger is done, assemble as normal. The effects from the smoke will allow you to eat the burger...it's not possible for the average human to eat it "uninfluenced" as the spice content is way too high to handle but under the influence of the smoke's effects, you not only can eat it but would have no problem going through the process to have another.

I developed the Toxic Burger after learning some techniques from my first fiancee, who would cook burgers in soy sauce. Never content to leave well enough alone, I experimented with various spices until I found ones that would make the fiercest burger possible. The discovery of the smoke effect was accidental but led me to perfect the recipe. As I said before though...don't cook this around children or around anyone with respiratory problems as it could be quite harmful to them. Needless to say...I haven't made this burger in a number of years because of its effects.

Lmao. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

I've never had a cheeseburger. Anyway, I prefer deli sandwiches to burgers. Veal, pastrami, salami or roast beef with loads of mustard on rye.

Here's my favorite cheeseburger recipe:

1. Go to your local McDonald's.
2. Ask for the double cheeseburger meal, with pickle only and no cheese on both burgers.
3. See if they get it right. (They almost never do. )

It seems like your local McDonalds is almost as incompetent as my local Starbucks. I ask for a Vanilla Frappachino, and they give me some pineapple slushie crap. WTF?

I've been to a Taco Bell, ordered a Nachos (you know, just chips and that little cup of cheese). Guess which one they forgot to put in? =p Yeah, they forgot the cheese.

You're making me hungry, Nathan.
Hey, I thought ali-oli was only served in Cataluna. Anyway, ali-oli is very similar to a Greek sauce called "scordaya" which they usually spread on fish or use as a dip. It looks almost like mayonnaise, but the garlic taste is overpowering. Have you tried it?

Ummm, I like deli sandwiches too,. My favorite is baloney and liverwurst on pumpernikel (sp?).
Then there's a good ol' cream cheese and Nova lox on a bagel. I guess you could call it a sandwich, no?

The Jewish Brunch.
Just the other day I had a (huge) double-decker sandwich with lox, cream cheese, tomato, onion and lettuce.
