The criteria in which I judge a burger.
- Beef patty is the star.
Everything else should compliment the patty.
If anything distracts from the patty, they done goofed.
- Patty must have a crust.
Drag a butter knife or fork against the crust should sound similar to concrete.
- Meat must be cooked to a medium-well (at most).
If it's not pink, your burger stinks.
- Bun must be soft and not dry.
It must be easier to tear with your teeth than beef patty.
See #1.
- Stuffed burger = gimmick.
- Balance is key
- Sweet
- Savory
- Bite/Spicy
- Acid
- Sweetness.
- Served with fries.
White Spot is the epitome of bad fries.
I think these burgers are only OK, not good.
I have yet to have a truly "good" burger.
I would gladly pay $20 (tax in) for a burger, fries and coke like this.
