Brilliant Burgers

The ultimate burger hangs in the balance of the patty and the bun. You get these two ingredients right, the rest is just a bonus. 

And great news! All you need to make an amazing burger patty is, beef mince, salt and pepper. The fattier the beef mince (and preferably purchased directly from a butcher), the better. And what about the roll? Got to be light and fresh baby!

For an interesting read about mince choices and a classic take on burgers, check out Big, Juicy Hamburgers on recipetineats. This food blogger knows what she's talking about. 

Another slightly more exotic recipe, is the Carolina Style Burger from Sugar Dish Me. This is mainly because I'm a sucker for homemade slaw on a burger and this chilli seasoning is fab.

What's fun about burgers is the variety of toppings you can create and add is endless. But, you don't need loads of toppings for it be magical. Go crazy or don't. Either way, served on a sheet of greaseproof paper, it's going to be delish.
