NFT: Cutting Burgers in Half With a Knife and Fork.

The Colonel : 7/24/2014 2:47 pm

Does anyone else get bothered by this, I mean really bothered about this as much I do when I self-proclaimed man does this?

when ones cuts the burger in half, one releases all of those delicious juices that are so critical to a burger's taste.

Just out of curiosity, does Mayor DeBlasio also cut his burgers with a fork and knife, as is customary ancestrally?

sure are angry people. That's what I learned on BBI this week.

My wife does it.

superspynyg : 7/24/2014 2:48 pm : link

Does not bother me at all.

I think we can safely assume Mayor Bill does in fact knife and fork

his burgers.

the second mock thread

is never as funny as the first

You sop up the juices with the bun each bite.

And 95% of the time I eat a burger with a fried egg...cutting it in half breaks the yolk...it runs all over...l

Love it

one serious thing I do not get about burgers is why the lettuce

chris r : 7/24/2014 2:53 pm : link

is on the top. It should be on the bottom to protect the bun from the burgers juices.

so the juice can drip down the lettuce and on to your lap when you lift the burger to bite it?

you lettuce your lap

Runny yolk on a burger is right up there with runny yolk on a pork roll sandwich. I jumped on board with it about 6 months ago and wish I hadn't waited so long.

I cut every burger I eat in half

Blue Baller : 7/24/2014 2:56 pm : link

I prefer to attack from the inside out

Do it all the time....

kinard : 7/24/2014 2:57 pm : link

Learned it as a kid from going to Friendly's. They always cut their burgers in half...

Makes a sloppy burger much more manageable...

I eat burgers

Moondwg : 7/24/2014 3:02 pm : link

you, dear Colonel know nothing except for Chicken and Biscuits.

I'll cut a burger if it's huge and falling apart

Greg from LI : 7/24/2014 3:05 pm : link

Few things better than a good burger with an over easy egg

lono801 : 7/24/2014 3:05 pm : link

Can find pork roll GF...but I did find scrapple...

Scrapple and egg on rye toast sandwich...slice of heaven

Not French...but my sister in law is...her Carbonara is great. She uses the raw eggs. Gives it a whole different taste

YAJ2112 : 7/24/2014 3:40 pm : link

what about the square cutters of a round burger? WTF is that shit?

I always cut my burger in half

asbasb : 7/24/2014 4:13 pm : link

much easier to get to the good stuff in the middle and keep a globful (scientific measure?) of condiments from squirting out the backside of the burger

CRinCA : 7/24/2014 4:21 pm : link

After all these years, I never knew what I was missing.

I had my 1st ever egg (over-easy) on a burger this past Sunday over in Napa. Sublime.

Even better, it was a Kobe-style burger.

(Oh, with truffle/Parmesan fries.)

I guess you read Magary's latest "Funbag" too

Completely ridiculous! Round burgers are bullshit!

You're all philistines

jcn56 : 7/24/2014 4:37 pm : link

A proper burger is to be dissected with a protractor into concentric circles and only dipped in condiments on the norther hemisphere.

I have a real problem with that spikey-haired asshole

Deej : 7/24/2014 4:49 pm : link

on the food network who flips sandwiches before biting into them. Forgetting his name, but the one who got that terrible review for his Times Sq. restaurant.

Deej,

You mean this guy? - ( New Window )

that would be the guy mispronounces his own last name

I cut my burger in half if its fairly large

Jimmy Googs : 7/24/2014 4:58 pm : link

or filled with a lot of toppings. Its just easier to handle.

Besides Colonel - the juices could run out whether you take bite or cut it...

and you guys are just catching up to the fried egg on a burger?

Greg from LI : 7/24/2014 5:00 pm : link

The White Spot in Charlottesville been doing those since WWII.

I think the egg on a burger is pretty common in

Bill in UT : 7/24/2014 5:05 pm : link

Hawaii, also

His last name isn't even Fieri

B in ALB : 7/24/2014 5:05 pm : link

It's Ferry or some bullshit.

I first had an egg on a burger back in 2001

Wuphat : 7/24/2014 5:49 pm : link

when I was stationed in Korea.

Now, when I make them at home, I always include a fried egg.

Spelled Fieri

Bill in UT : 7/24/2014 6:02 pm : link

Pronounced Fiedi. Whatever

or you could let the burger rest before eating it

WeatherMan : 7/24/2014 6:05 pm : link

so the juices don't run out after biting or cutting into it? Just a thought.

Or you could just throw it in a blender

Bige711 : 7/24/2014 7:53 pm : link

and drink it.

G2 : 7/24/2014 8:01 pm : link

please tell me you don't cut and in-n-out double double, or tommy's burger with a knife?

lono801 : 7/24/2014 10:25 pm : link

Lol...No...

If I'm eating either one it's 2 am...no cutting involved. They are going down in seconds...

And after eating Tommy's

A true LA experience

Fuck that shit

mattlawson : 7/24/2014 10:41 pm : link

The "in" thing to do is cut in quarters.
