Burgers are one of my favorite foods, I actually like them better than steaks. I always get them medium rare, and sometimes cook them very rare. I eat burgers like this once or twice a week and have never gotten sick from a burger.

My NYC burger joints are corner bistro in the west village and dumont burger in williamsburg.

There should be only two temperatures on burgers...bloody as hell or burnt to a crisp. I like mine medium rare by the way. I rarely order one when I go out to eat. While your at it I'll take some provolone (or swiss) and some sauteed mushrooms and onions.

avocado spread at dumont is very good, try it oot. Also shake shack is back in effect.......

I like it medium rare.

badder_than_evil

i have to remember to ask that the bun isn`t toasted - i think it tastes nasty otherwise..



rare...

I like my beef bloody as hell. I once ate some raw steak to see what it tasted it like and it was delicious. I wouldn't do that on the regular though.

BOCA BURGERS FOR DAYS SON






































Actually, Boca Burgers are one of the least attractive things about being vegan.

Corner Bistro is the joint as is Dumont but there's a whole gang of secret downlow burger spots in Brooklyn. I always get my shit Medium RARE, not MEDIUM Rare, dig?

And raw beef will do it, son. Fucking with that KITFO will do it to you holmes.

dumont burger sucks so bad, i cannot even express it... a great example of hype... that's not a burger, that's a fucking meatball.... same w/ Diner... BULLSHIT... burgers i like: peter luger... go for the lunchtime special... Mugs Alehouse... their burger is fucking proper... specially w/ blue cheese... oh, and FUCK A BRIOCHE.... yuppie bullshit...


and on a non "you mad , doggie" note, it's basically impossible to get a burger cooked to order in this day and age.... i gave up on ordering "medium rare", b/c it always came cooked all the way thru... now i order "rare" i figure w/ food poisoning scare i will get it how i like it w/ a little pink in the middle...

safe to say you're not a fan of Daniel Boulud's $29 concoction...

THE ORIGINAL db BURGER
Sirloin Burger Filled
with Braised Short Ribs, Foie Gras
and Black Truffles
Served on a Parmesan Bun
with Pommes Frites

About overcooking burgers, yes it happens everywhere but we're living in squeamish N. America, learn to work the system. To a lesser degree it's true w/ steak too, most reaturants will give you medium rare if you order rare, medium if you order medium rare, and so forth.....

Now enough ny talk, I will wax poetic about my favourite local old school linoleum + faux wood panel joint. Golden Star on Yonge just north of Steeles is the spot for me in Toronto. A deluxe homemade w/ bacon and cheese is the ticket. Served in tacky plastic baskets lined w/ wax paper, it is a heart attack special that I indulge in every few months.

I live around the corner from Schnack, which is my preferred burger spot.

I use bison meat to make burgers. It is very lean but still has a lot of flavor and I like mine medium rare, but when I eat out and I don't know the quality of beef they use I order burgers medium.

grandpa_shig

those fany $29 burgers are pretty damn tasty but the thing i dont like is eating a $29 hamburger at a fancy restaurant. i mean, everyone else is being all polite eating with the 2 prong fork and weird speculum thing and then there's me scarfing down a hamburger like a caveman. they cant shit out patties like coins and the meat cooks in a weird shape. then they put good bread on them shits which makes it even more cumbersome. good thing a rarely go to a fancy restaurant.

anyone ever been to mosburger? mos delicious haanbaagaa? i thought that shit was GRUB but it could be that you cant find a good burger in japan and therefore a subpar mosburger seems like some gourmet shit.

Yes indeed...
A bunch of those schnackies with onions and Schnack sauce is a fine, fine meal. And their chocolate stout beershake is out of this damn world.

I've been wanting to try this for a minute. I just needed confirmation. Now that I have it, I'll try one tonight.

actually my Baghdad recomendation gets a downgrade...It's all about SLIDER BURGER. It's a small chain in San Fran/Peninsula area. Pretty good but what makes it worthwhile is the condiment bar. All you can eat mushrooms, sprouts, a lot of hotsauces (no wetback), hard-boiled eggs; pretty much anything you'd ever want on a burger.

Also The Grind on Lower Haight (Up the street from Grove Merchant). It's not so much the food (pretty good) but it's the service (B-Cizzy knows what i'm talking about)
