That no ketchup after you're 13 rule is dumb. How can anyone not like the taste of ketchup? Oh, it's going to take away the authentic purist taste of my hamburger or hot dog? Sure of course, yes please. The taste of ground and processed salty meats gets boring after awhile if not countered by a burst of sweetness.
You would be amazed at how hard it is to get people to try this. But god damn is it ever good!
Yeah people are often horrified when they overhear you order a burger and tell the cook to slap a fried egg on that bad boy - until they try it themselves that is.
Hmmm...I may have to recant that rant if it turns out there is a technical jargon here I didn't know about.
Indeed. The easiest way to find youself in the 22 year old manager's doghouse is to not use the correct lingo. Tops are crowns, bottoms are heels, the sign outside is the golden arches. And the manager is a lifer.
Try Kraft Burger Sauce - it's pretty good, but you cant find it at all grocery stores. For the Fried egg folk, how long do you fry it for - is the yolk left quite runny?
I dont make two burgers the same hardly... I always make my own patties though, store bought patties and all fast food burgers suck in comparison.
(package of ground beef, 1 egg, cup of Quaker oats, diced onion and cayenne peeper to taste, mix the hell out of it freeze on cookie sheet and then zip lock baggy for handy burger baggy)
My burger toppings vary greatly, my only hard and fast rule is the lettuce is never directly against the bun (thats what mayo and mustard is for) or under the patty (it is too slippery to hold patty in place. Ketchup is for kids, only exception is the tobasco flavored katsup, but even then - meh
couple days ago my burger looked like this:
Top
Mayo
Mustard
sliced Red Bell pepper
Alf alfa sprouts
Tabasco sauce
Cheese
home made patty
BBQ sauce
bun
When I put a fried egg on its this:
Top
peanutbutter
tobasco
Egg
Patty
BBQ sauce
salsa
Bun

Fully cooked eggs for me - no runny yolks, blech... but thats not just for burgers runny eggs are always disgusting.
