Not Culver's, but another Wisconsin-style butter burger with an added egg.

Delicious but a tad under-seasoned and the egg was overcooked but still a great burg.

Thread opinions on the meat grinder attachment to a KitchenAid stand mixer? Versus a standalone grinder?

I already have the mixer. Realistically might use it a couple times a month for 2-3 people worth of food.

I haven't tried a standalone grinder, but the last time I used the KitchenAid attachment, I got a lot of smear even after using a brand new blade and freezing all the components prior. If I ever get back into grinding my own, I'll go standalone.

What is this smashburg I keep hearing about? I've always just formed the patties and put them on the grill so I'm intrigued.

I just use a bench scraper for both smashing the patties, and scraping them free to flip.

WHY ARE THE HASH BROWNS NOT ON THE BURGER?

it looks delicious

Seconding this!

A local place does a "Hangover" burger with a hash brown patty inside, and is served with a "Bloody Mary" dipping sauce.

This burger came to mind when the wife and I were talking about where to go for lunch ... and I got pictures this time.

I didn't ask the staff, but I think that the dipping sauce is simply mayo with some Zing Zang mixed in. The side of poutine has smoked brisket in it.



... and cross-section after eating the first half ...

Bacoon Ride 2019 - Charity Bicycle ride that's bacon themed. The first pic is an actual Burg ... the other stretches the definition a little bit.

Calling a burger a sandwich just because it has chicken in it is pure stupidity.

My better judgement says that I really shouldn't participate in this derail, but, what has my better judgement done for me lately?

A burger has a patty. That patty can be made of almost anything ... beef, pork, chicken, black beans, potato protein. The reason that delicious chicken sandwich (which I would happily eat) is not a burger is because it appears to be a solid piece of chicken, breaded, and fried. Had that piece of chicken been ground and formed into a patty, it would absolutely be a burger (even if said patty was then breaded and fried).

A steak sandwich is not a burger. The reason it is not a burger has nothing to do with the choice of protein, it's because that protein is not formed into a patty.

Having reached the end of my diatribe, I realize that I have not accounted for how a portobello burger came to be and submit that it should be renamed as a "mushroom steak sandwich".

Patty Melt and Onion Rings



This was the first time in a long time that I was asked what temp I'd like the burger at, and gotten something with any pink in it (I asked for medium). Good job Iron Horse Grill.

I had this double spicy burg from my favorite burger spot, Tornado Burger. They grind in garlic, onion, and jalapeño into the beef, and it’s god drat amazing.



Man, I haven't had one of those in a decade or more. I forget sometimes how good I had it for quality burgers when I lived in Houston.

I didn't get a picture of it, but, this was my lunch today ...

This place is like having a local Bob's Burgers. There's a new special every day, usually based on a pun, but today, it took a bit of a liberty that Des Moines isn't all that close to Waterloo, Iowa, and had a Chef Slowik cheeseburger special anyway.
