Next you'll add a pineapple ring and a slice of pickled beetroot. Then it would almost be a Kiwi burger. Checked and have all ingredients to hand in freezer, fridge and pantry, except the ?. Don't particularly like burgers with a Tropical twist anyway. Bon appetite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Joe... but those are horrible, tasteless stuff... like eating bread of sawdust mixed with ground paper... I'm in BKK not in CM, but I've yet to find a proper hamburger bun available for retail purchase that makes the burger better instead of making it worse. The ones from Carl's Jr. in BKK aren't bad by comparison, but I've never found the equivalent available for retail sale here. Probably the best store bought I've ever found are a variety sold in some of the Villa markets in BKK -- larger size buns in two-packs, just in a plain clear plastic package, no brand label or anything, as best as I recall. They're not bad, not not always in stock and sometimes hard to find. PS -- Really guys, a thread asking for advice about decent hamburger buns shouldn't be requiring moderator's deletions for troll posts. It talking about hamburger buns, for god's sake!!!

chiang mai Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Instead of regular hamburger buns I strongly encourage you to try Rosemary Focaccia buns from Rimping, makes for a magnificent burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you chuck in the nearest garbage bin, take an emetic for even looking at it, And stop uploading images of animal meat.

Then you would rate it as outstanding? I'm not a vegetarian, and do enjoy meat dishes, just not huge spheres of meat piled in mounds up to the sky. Any Thai meat dishes are fine with me, and I eat nothing else. Haven't had a burgher in over 15 years, nor a pizza. No flavor in the hamburger and too much dairy glop in the pizza. If one travels to Italy, then eating pizza makes sense because Italy offers many pizza recipes with and without meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think the description you used is in such poor taste as to make the entire post devoid of any literary usefulness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about having a burgher. The last one I had, I made from a piece of ground beef, rather expensive, but the butcher did not grind it for burgher use and the grounds were too large. The finer the grind, up to a point, the better, I find. So I was just wondering what beef or pork is typically used in Thailand. Also, judging from the photo, there seems to exist the propensity to make the spheres of beef overly large, which detracts from the overall flavor and experience, I would think. I have not seen a shop selling any burgers that look good enough to eat, at least not recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As this thread is about the bun might I suggest you start a new thread about the meat patty for burgher (what ever the <deleted> that is) instead of polluting this one with your obnoxious dribble.

You must have forgotten your feelings that you expressed here, only a few hours ago. Quote I just don't know why anyone would touch a hamburger, or a bun, while living in Thailand, unless they were not yet properly localized. And a sphere of meat would more normally called a meatball. They make a good sandwich too, but we don't call it a hamburger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to get local bakery's to make whole grain buns, they want large orders to do that. Most burgers have sugary bread which stuffs it up.

The best ones you can get at the UN pub , crust loaf bakery. I second this. This is where the Classic Burger guy (guys?) get their buns I was once told. I did not know that the crusty loaf bakery sell them to the consumer market also however, as I can't remember ever seeing them in the UN Pub store, but if they do, that's great.

MMan Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Surprised it has not already been mentioned here, but I think The Dukes will sell you their buns (which are excellent as are their burgers). You just have to go to one of their restaurants and order them one day in advance. At least this was the case a few years ago, as I was told by one of the staff after I saw somebody come in and pick-up some buns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awk Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 The Dukes burgers are good, and in particular the beef is several notches above the one Classic serves, but the rest of the burger, including the buns, are better at Classic IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfokevin Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) Here is my take on home made hamburgers... I opt for a Parisian sandwich baguette from Rimping along with 100 baht of ground beef from the meat counter... I quarter the baguette and butter itcan sprinkle a little garlic salt on them and grill them with the meat which has been covered with freshly ground pepper corns... serve open faced with a baked potato slathered with butter... ;-) Edited March 3, 2017 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will you marry me? Or at the very least teach my significant other how to cook this. She has been known to burn water, and the daily papaya salad made available will never be a suitable substitute for your creation. And a cleansing coke chaser with ice tops it off perfectly.

JimGant Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Looks great. However, the two bowls of salad look a little dry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trujillo Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 The bun is a device to enable you to eat meat and condiments without getting your hands (too) messy. Piling the meat and condiments higher than your mouth is when open is no longer a hamburger. The buns become bread condiments, and the eating becomes a sloppy Joe sort of affair. Ground beef, as we would call it, on anything other than a hamburger bun becomes a hamburger sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobin Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Coke is a well-known poison, so best to avoid it. Wash down the mega-burger with iced tea.

jobin Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Oops. Well those are the map coords but the shop name is 'B2oven' very near hiway 121 and hiway 1367. South of that corner about 300meters on 1367. It's a coffee shop and bakery selling to nearby Rimpings, and over the counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly think that real beverage to be washing down a burger would be a dark microbrew....... and for that pic of the burgers, I would have allowed the cheese to melt some....
