I cook the bacon first then foil it. That way I can concentrate on the patty and the chips. I refuse to have a cold burger in my own home.

That’s what I’m saying. At my compound, the burgers are straight off the grill and onto your bun. Super hot and fresh with all the toppings you like. But to get to that point where everything lines up is a fucking chore and barely worth it.

People don’t realise what it takes to make a viciously great burger. Type of meat, fat content, type of bun, perfect crispy bacon, lettuce and tomato has to be crisp and cold, various toppings, sauces, chips, all the rest.. it’s no laughing matter haha.

I’m way too invested in this shit.
