toasting the bun always helps! I'd use a single piece of lettuce to catch any drippings so the bottom bun stays intact too; otherwise breddy gud for your first!

>I like a little bit of cold cheese because melting the cheese always comes out uneven

Stop being a retard and melt it evenly. Toast buns. Bigger burger patty.

>>21985410
Maybe some good balsamic vinegar? I feel it could do with a bit of a zing

Good for you, OP. So much better than overpriced garbage fast food.

I stopped making burgers at home because you really can't compete with fast food burgers. McDonald's Double QP mogs anything I've ever seen posted on this board or anything I make at home, and I'm no slouch.

inb4 home made burger fags sperg out. That burger you cooked that you're so proud of, I've had it thousands of times at pubs, other people's homes, my own home. It doesn't compete with a well made fast food burger. These are billion dollar corporations with teams of food scientists and heaps of research behind making their food not only delicious but also impossible to recreate in the average home kitchen. Also the lettuce, tomato, excessive pickles and onions and salad dressing for sauce infuriates me, not to mention the other wacky shit you women put on burgers. Avocado? Piss off, lady.

>cheese nice and melted
If it's what you like what else matters. I put the cheese on the bottom though, keeps the grease out of the bun.

>>21985410
Cut the cheese smaller put it on immediately after flipping and cover with a lid to melt it. Put the buns in at the same time.

>>21985410
Dont listen to the 1s saying you HAVE to melt the cheese. I like unmelted cheese myself.

>>21985410
Wouldn’t mind a slightly wider patty but aside from that it’s an excellent burger

It's underneath spread thin as thousand island, with a smear of Dijon mustard on the other buns unpictured

>>21985426
You fell for it, you stupid idiot. It's chemicals and science that tricks you into thinking you're eating something that real food "can't compete with".
Just say you prefer unholy abominations designed to addict you over real food. I guess you already have.

>>21985410
Your cheese melts uneven? Sounds like you take it straight out of the fridge and put it on your burger. You should be taking it out with all your prep stuff so it can come up to room temperature while you're cooking, and then place it on top of the burger maybe 1 or 2 minutes before you pull it off the heat

>>21985641
>chemicals and science that tricks you
This is easier for you to believe than the fact that you're just not that good at cooking burgers. Do you have a commercial flat top grill in your house? Do you have the bun toasting machine? Have you spent decades dialing in the recipe you use? Have you spent billions of dollars taste testing your recipe?

Face it, you're outclassed. Fast food conspiracy is just a cope. Cooking itself is "science and chemicals" and anyone who has access to advanced methods, ingredients, and equipment would be crazy not to use them.

well that's just fine then

Its really not, red robin makes 2 times the burger as this

>>21985410
I'm a fan of 75/25 for burgers, myself, but I like them good and juicy. As other Anon said, toasted buns is a must. I like to use a kaiser roll cut in half as the bun, and I definitely suggest adding a fried egg on top. I love it, some people hate it, but you should definitely try it at least once.

>>21985648
This is the advice I needed thank you

>>21986288
to piggyback on anon's point, if you have an extra thick slice of cheese you need to melt, tent the burger loosely with aluminum foil while on the grill/in the pan.

man, been a m,inute for this pasta.
at least you only got 3 dullards.

Beef patty looks good, maybe toast the bun next time and put some sauce (if you like it like that).

Maybe melt the cheese, you can do it when you flip the patty and put a lid on for a minute to melt.

decided to buy some pickles and mustard and ketchup the other day and make my own burgers fast-food style, they were pretty okay

>>21987742
That is way too many pickles. Texture nightmare

>>21985410
Slice a potato and cook it in the burger grease shit is unreal. Salt and pepper after they are done cooking.

>>21985410
Slice some onion. When you flip the burger throw in about 2/3rds of the onion. Keep the other 1/3rd raw.
Toast/grill the bun.

Stack:

Bun
Sauce
Lettuce
Raw onion
Burger
Cheese
Fried onion
Another dollop of sauce or mustard
Bun

Also start off with a raw burger that's about 1/2 inch bigger diameter than the bun.
