Burger King- Have it Her Way

by Burger King

by Burger King

FOXNEWS.com- The print ad for the “BK Super Seven Incher” — a limited time promotion in Singapore, a society known around the world for its strict government controls of social conduct — shows the “mind-blowing” sandwich near the open mouth of a wide-eyed, red-lipsticked woman accompanied by the suggestive tagline: “It’ll blow your mind away.”

“Fill your desire for something long, juicy and flame-grilled,” the ad continues.

Hey McDonald’s, are you taking notes? I mean this may not be the most appropriate ad ever created but it sure as heck got people’s attention, including mine.  I honestly don’t see what all the fuss is about? Pixar and Dreamworks can incorporate  jokes into their films that are well over the heads of young kids, how is this any different? Are you not going to take your children to get a Jr. Whopper because this is hanging in the window?  I hope not.  Its maybe not G rated but it’s certainly not NC-17.  (So when did Michael Fay get a job in marketing at Burger King?)

Thunder Jackson’s- Rating (8 out of 10 Burgers)

Thunder Jackson's- Dirty Burger

Thunder Jackson's- Dirty Burger

Get down and dirty at the West Village’s hidden gem, Thunder Jackson’s.  This is not your typical burger palace by the looks of it from corner of Sullivan and Bleecker.  But, do not be fooled as this is the home of the infamous “Dirty Burger”.  This beefy filthiness  is hand created with 5 different dry rubs and glazed in honey before thrown on the fiery grill.  The catch is that the chef and restaurant staff are so confident in their delicious patty that they will NOT and CANNOT allow you to top you burger with anything.  Thats right, ANYTHING, including lettuce, tomato, onions,pickles or even cheese. No cheese? Yes, you heard me.  Do not even try to order a side of lettuce, tomato or cheese as thats already been tried before (by one of my friends along with many others).  However, let it happen and give it a go as you will enjoy this palette pleasure. Believe me, it is outstanding and the flavors and juices are hard to beat.

Word to the wise, double up on the fries and let loose with the homemade truffle mayo and ketchup.

Five Guys- Rating (7.5 out of 10 Burgers)

Five Guys Burger

Five Guys Burger

High fives for Five Guys…  This NYU neighbor is a burger joint featuring thin patties cooked well with an amazing assortment of only the most American toppings.  Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Ketchup Mustard Mayo, and Pickles is what the Burger Boy went with at this fast rising chain.  Look out Shake Shack. 4 locations and no lines gives this place a leg up on the “burger joint” competition. On the rare occasion when there is a slight wait, they’ve even pulled out all the stops providing salted peanuts for their patrons to prime their palates.  The atmosphere is plain, but clean, and the service is quick.  In short, Five Guys keeps is simple and sticks to what they know – great burgers.

“I got the milk, the eggs, and the fabric softener.”  Well Kevin, you know what you didn’t get while you were Home Alone?  A friggin’ Five Guys burger.  Can’t argue with a spot who’s standard burger consists of two patties and all sorts of boo-ya on top.  As a chain, and for the price and the speed, Five Guys is as good as it gets.  If you don’t know, now you know.

Padma Lakshmi- BurgerPEOPLE.com (Janet Mock)- Not to be outdone by the heiress, in March 2009 Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi had a “love affair” with a Hardee’s Western Bacon Thickburger in slow motion – hiking up her skirt and licking burger juice from her modelicious legs!

Thats how you eat a burger! I wish I looked that good when I sit down to dine with a Grade A 100% Black Angus bombshell.  Instead, I look more like Barry Bonds flipping over everything in sight within the Giants locker room looking for the last siringe  on earth covered in sweat and tears.  I not only love show Top Chef but Padma too.  I still haven’t figured out if the show itself is really that entertaining or if its Padma’s stunning looks and dazzling dressesas host….

Pick of the Week- DBGB Burger

NYMag.com-Daniel Boulud keeps threatening to go downscale, and while DBGB Kitchen and Bar might not actually fit that description, it’s the closest he’s come yet: fourteen varieties of sausage, including an all-beef “DB’s dog”; three burgers (sans foie gras); and an ice-cream-sundae cart. The beer list is staggering, the wines affordable, and the décor restaurant-supply-store-inspired. Robin Raisfeld and Rob Patronite

Be sure to check this place out.  Come prepared with your wallets and patience as the prices can be $teep and the wait long while this place is still booming.

100LB Girl Takes Down 6LB Burger

100lb Chic, 6lb BurgerA Welsh View- Now this is pretty impressive.  Here is a pretty good looking (obviouslt not obese) female tackling a 6lb. burger!

There are full grown males reading this site that couldn’t put down 1/4 of that burger (you pansies).

Not only does she eat the burger but picks that thing clean joining the clean plate club (see after picture).

What is her boyfriend like? He is either 250 lbs. of protein shakes and power bars with dumbells for arms OR he is a tiny Frodo looking dude who gets bossed around an punished by this human garbage can he calls his babe.

Beauty and the Beast

Audrina Patridge & Burger

PEOPLE.com (By Jennifer Garcia)-“I had an absolute blast shooting. It was my first experience shooting a spot with food, and when I pulled up, I was literally salivating looking at all the rows and rows of perfect burgers waiting for me!” she recalls of the sandwich, available at Carl’s Jr. on June 24, the same day that the TV spot launches.

The starlet, 24, shot in a barely-there gold bikini on the beaches of Malibu in April but didn’t mind the minimal wardrobe. “We made sure my bikini was reversible, in case of any ketchup or teriyaki mishaps! It was a great experience, and being on the beach in Malibu was an added perk,” she tells PEOPLE.

I still can’t get over this.  #1 That burger is gynormous, can she handle it? (Carl’s Jr. needs to start moseying their way over to the eastcoast).  #2 This isn’t even funny…not only does the burger look  absolutely delicious but Audrina (she had work done right?) must have gotten dressed in heaven and picked up her bathing suit in hell on the way. Holy buns that suit is blazin’.

The burger is then placed in between each side of a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut.

Krispy Kreme Cheeseburgerkrispy-kreme-logo

Alright, NOW we are talking.  Here are some things I love; donuts (especially warm Krispy Kreme’s) cheeseburgers, bacon AND baseball!  This puts crackerjacks, ball park franks, peanuts, pretzels and cold beer to shame (okay, not the beer…that was dumb…dumb dumb dumb).  Oh my goodness, beer and a Krispy Kreme bacon cheeseburger?!  I am currently ordering a Gateway Grizzly Jersey and and am now their #1 fan.

Cheeseburger in a Can

TREK N’ EAT.com-Nothing could be easier to prepare: Just heat the can in a water bath, open the lid, and enjoy your delicious cheeseburger!

People in the wilderness who rely on the experience of an expedition food specialist such as Trek‘n Eat in preparing their meals have more of life: more enjoyment, less weight to carry, and more time for doing other things. The canned burger has a shelf life of twelve months without requiring refrigeration.

Alright Alright…you have GOT to be kidding me.  Cheeseburger in a can? This is a joke right?

What genius sat there one day and said “Hey, I like burgers and I also like cans.  Lets put a cheeseburger in a can. Brilliant! I am not so sure about this.  Would I eat it? I mean I am the BurgerBoy  so I would have to eat it right?
