Great giveaway idea!

Here's one: "High Fiber"

I'll work on a pic of it being eaten later  :whistle:















Shhh.... Don't tell anyone, the secret ingredient is wood  ;)

This is the vegan version!  :rofl:

I might give it a go, but no guarantees, I like veggies and never was compelled to join the meat substitute crowd like a lot of noob vegans, and I don't like tofu or kale either.  :D It's a texture thing I think... The portabella one sounds good though, so it's possible!  :tu:

Djeez!!!! That's such a nice knife!!!

I don't grill in the winter.

But… Made this one on my new Weber this summer.







It was so good, I forgot to take a picture while eating it… And no, there's no timestamp… *CRIES*

Hope it'll still count though.

I have no idea a how to call this meat in English. It's 50/50 pig/cow ground beef??? (Or only cow? It's been a couple of months, hmmmm…) Just some pepper/salt, garlic en bell pepper powder.
Cheddar cheese, hamburger bun, ketchup, onions, tomatoes and lettuce.

Ohhh.....Serena.....that looks excellent! And I love your beef-pork blend!  :drool:

But, sorry, .....the burger needs to be made during the challenge period. Your post made me realize that I wasn't specific enough about that (although, that's why I wanted to include time stamps.).  :cry:

However, don't worry that your grill is put away.... The famous American Chef James Beard stated that the BEST way to make a burger is to sauté the burger patty in some butter on the stove top in a skillet. So.....PLEASE...make another burger for the contest! You clearly have a good touch!  Hey, why not make six (6)!  :tu:

Thanks for helping me out with clarifying the rules.  :cheers:

That wooden burger cannot be considered Vegan, wood is from trees and trees are living beings. True Vegans can only eat plastic foods.  :D  :whistle:

yeah Nix, anyone name Beard has got my vote lol, but I do make most of mine on the stove in a frying pan with good results, 4-5 minutes per side.  Very nice looking knife, thanks for the GAW  :cheers:

Nix, what a great idea for a GAW!  :like: Making and having burgers is always fun in itself, and having a potential prize attached is just a very nice bonus. I'll definitely enter! Let's get cooking, good luck and bon appetit to all!

Perfect timing had some fresh ground beef from the Amish market and was making burgers tonight

Just salt & pepper mixed in and formed some patties by hand


Some Sweet baby lettuce and iceberg, campari tomatos, red onion and avocado


Into the frying pan with a little melted butter, about 5 minutes per side over med/high heat(lower heat a bit after you flip)


regular american cheese, a little mayo, ketchup, spicy mustard, fries and a pickle on the side




with time stamp, gotta say it was damn good. My only flub was a few of the fries got a little over cooked while trying to time everything to finish together and take pics  :-\

I hate to ask, but does it have to be on a bun? For whatever reasons, I don't have bread at the moment (the great wheat shortage of 2019, or something), but if you'll accept deconstructed bread-free burgers, then that's what is for dinner.....


(As for the prize itself, for anyone interested - I have no idea what sort of criteria (or bribes) Cook's Illustrated use to pick their winning knives, however I can say the Vic Chef's knives are very decent (especially for their price) They are very popular with apprentice chefs, and plenty of them use them throughout their careers (the ones that just want good, easy to use, easy to maintain quality knives with a comfortable grip for daily use.) They're also pretty popular with the aging crowd as the largish handles and light weight makes them wrist and grip friendly.

They're a great addition to the kitchen, and if you don't have kitchen knives that bring you joy already, winning this will make you look forward to hacking up innocent vegetables or slicing some meat.

Actually, I think you've posed a rather interesting question.

I don't know if it's just a Scottish thing, but I remember when I was little, when we went to Wimpeys the burger always came on a plate... with NO bun!  :ahhh

Look...

Mrs Nix loves a good burger....but she usually takes her burger without a bun. Who am I to gainsay her?   :cheers:

(Although, this does raise the tricky issue of trying to establish a difference between a bunless burger and the old Salisbury Steak. I may be inviting disaster here, but let's consider the bun classic, but optional, especially for the wheat-intolerant.)

I'd like to point out, I was just playing devils advocate. Personally, I think a burger needs a bun.

Yep... Stevey you are indeed Scottish, aren't you. A patty melt is pretty much what you get in any Scottish pub if you ask for a burger.  :facepalm:
