Gaming journalism burger thread: We need proper judging criteria, damnit!

Damn, am I the only one here who just CAN’T STAND drinking water with my meals? Before a meal, of course…after a meal, obviously…but when I get thirsty while I’m eating? There has to be some juice or something around, preferably orange juice.

Yea water with a meal is low tier.

But when the burger is gigantic already its no longer compensation, its icing on the cake.

Water with a meal is broken tier, I’m not about to be on some my body is a temple shit in a thread arguing about burgers, but water is free at any restaurant, and its better for you than any beverage you could conceivably put in you at a restaurant. It’s the optimal play here.

It’s bland and tasteless, usually from the tap or something, it doesn’t compliment the meal at all.

Nothing quenches your thirst better than water. Unfortunately dudes at FG tournaments haven’t figured this out yet. :coffee:

Well yeah, thats why you drink the water after you’re finished with your meal. Other beverages are for when you’re in the process of eating the meal.

It’s just, to me water erases the taste of food while not adding in a taste of it’s own, unlike some juice or something.

So how do you f@gs cook your burgers?

I prefer to slow smoke mine…add a bit of italian sausage and let them bitches marinade for bit…then slowly smoke them…best burger period.

Years back, there was this spot going toward Hemet, where all the dairy farms were. Moms and I decided to check it out. Spot was run by a French/Hispanic cat and his beautiful wife, who had the nicest, fattest ass I’ve ever seen on a skinny chick (with four kids, mind you). Best burgers I’ve ever had. $2.50 each, and with the freshest meat (duh, the cat had cows lol), and veggies. It was so simple, no crazy ass condiments, gimmicks, etc. The flavor was exquisite.The family used to head there, load up on the greatness, get some fries from McChemical’s since it was the closest thing to the house, and relax. Needless to say I was devastated when they disappeared. Haven’t had a burger of that quality outside of homemade since. Shit was so good that fries really weren’t needed.

There’s a place in my town called “Saldanha” that became somewhat famous in the state for having enormous burgers. The biggest they have is so huge that if one person can eat it alone they get another one free (or something like that). Usually it’s divided for 3 or 4 persons, tough:

So much variety in the States. There’s not really much variety in Aus if we’re talking about Fast Food burger joints

Worst of the worst?

Did you forget Burger King existed?
At least McDonalds don’t burn their shit and call it flame grilling, their “meat” can still be tasted under the sauce and their value menu double burger patties aren’t so small that if they stick together you think they fucked up your order and only gave you one patty.

There are tiers even among the shit tier and BK is dead last, even below risking the shits at the salmonela van.

Not to mention that, at least here in Brazil, BK has a reputation for the worst and slowest service in a fast food chain ever.

I think some of these may be due to location, Red Robin here is a solid C tier, that shit is nasty and the fries just make a bad burger inedible.

Fatburger needs to be around the A-B area, anywhere i can get a fried egg on my burger at 4 am is a winner in my book.

Bro Horse is so hard to get here in the states, there’s such a stigma against it, at least where i live due to people treating them like pets.
Fuck you with your 100k a year in housing/feeding costs “Pets”.
Plus i hear it’s delicious.
I would argue to include Bison which is just a leaner beef but it has a very clean taste.
Maybe kangaroo which if you ate jack in the box during the 90’s you have tried.

Eat your burgers with the crown on the bottom.

I’m awful at cooking burgers. Must be the city living. I never owned a grill.

You can do a pretty decent burger with just a frying pan and some bacon grease or butter, just don’t press the burger while cooking to not lose its juice and don’t overcook it.

I live 15 minutes away from a place called Tony’s(one of them, the best one, because there are so fucking many owned by different people serving different things around my area). Real famous in my state or at least the surrounding cities for it’s large breakfast servings.

A gimmick of theirs is when you order anything with bacon they give you damn-near half a pig, depending.

Here’s a bacon cheeseburger from there:

Here’s a bacon sandwich:
