I’m Australian, and burger with the lot where I come from involves the following Bun Bacon Egg Lettuce Tomato Pineapple Beetroot Meat Onion Sauce maybe. That’s the minimum you expect anyway
Condensing a rant I had on another comm with this question here: fruit belongs with meat. fullstop. Idk why we’re still having this discussion when medieval peasants were able to figure it out in like the 12th century.
Pineapple is really good for sweet, salty, spicy combos. Pepperoni, pineapple, jalapeno pizza goes really hard, don’t really like pineapple on other pizzas though.
Maybe adding something spicy to this burger would be good too.
The classic pineapple and ham is really good with hot sauce on it.
Ham is something I don’t pick on a pizza but will eat if it’s the only pizza. Next time I’ll try it for sure
I like pineapple on its own. I’m just not a big fan of pineapple on things. I don’t need everything I eat to be savory and sweet.
Pineapple belongs on everything you like it on. No matter what others say. Life’s too short to rob yourself of things food you like, simply because other people think so.
Totally agree.
The only rule I have in the kitchen is that there are no rules. Rules on what is allowed to mix in cooking are stupid.
You like pasta with boiled eggs and Nutella? You do you!Taste is 100% subjective.
I’ve tried it on burger a few times and it just doesn’t fit me well, but on I always use it on pepperoni pizza and in my tacos.
That or mango.pasta with boiled eggs
literally carbonara though
pasta with boiled eggs
literally carbonara though
I mean, boiled eggs conjures up hard boiled eggs to me, not the emulsified sauce you get in a carbonara. Drastic difference in texture
.
I agree in principle, but there are rules in a kitchen. Mostly it’s for safety though, not for flavor
Like never have two carbs in the one meal.
My mother inlaw stands by that so hard amd yet I’ll have mashed potatoes and pasta together haha
Islands Hawaiian burger
So long as it is not oven baked.
My opposition to pineapple pizza has always hinged on the fact that the pineapple is always hard or the Pizza is always soggy.
Pineapple is good, Pizza is good. They need to be cooked separate to be good together.
I have personally never experienced this. The pizza around here is perfectly well balanced with pineapple too. No sogginess, and the pineapple is amazingly juicy still, not dry or hard.
You might have encountered someone using the usually tossed inner parts of a pineapple, that are more fibrous? I bake a lot of homemade pizzas and even I have never managed to dry out the pineapple in the short time the pizza visits the oven
Yeah, it’s a very common thing here in Northern Europe too! At least my corner of it. Even growing up in a very remote and small village in the Lappish wilderness a burger with pineapple was one of the more common ones at the local (and the only) grill-kiosk.
However, for whatever reason, pineapple in a burger seems to be almost always paired with a fried egg. I think it’s great but not really sure why exactly that’s so common a combo.
I’ve had egg and pineapple but not on the same burger. I’m really not sure how I’d like the taste but there’s something aesthetically pleasing about the egg yolk and pineapple ring fitting together.
Judging people on the kind of food they like is literally the dumbest shit ever. You’re not the one eating it so why do you care?
I’m sorry, I asked an opinion. Just like asking what did you think of Harry potter or lotr. Shit didn’t realise we can only talk about absolutely serious things.
Do you think we have free will?
Apologies, I should have made it more clear that I was talking in general and not directed at you or this post specifically.
All good mate
“My life is very meaningless and aimless but I have the human desire to take stands and share my mind but I’ve never engaged with any topic deeply or seriously enough for it so I’m gonna talk about pineapple burgers.”
Is it even a works burger without pineapple???
How’s the egg cooked on that thing?
Typically just fried on the grill with the patty, bacon, and onion.
Just fried, some like it runny others cooked through.
Funnily enough, I had a burger with pineapple on it when I was in Australia. It was great, I really liked the juiciness and taste the pineapple brought to the burger.
Granted, it was at an Oporto (which is kinda like upscale McDonald’s with a Portuguese theme to it for the uninitiated), but it was pretty good nonetheless; I’d have it again.
What’s the debate? Whether it tastes nice or not? Seeing the popularity of both pineapple pizza and pineapple/cheese and honey burgers (at least in Europe), I guess it’s tasty enough for a bunch of people.
I swear, some people will take a stand for anything besides important things, lol. God? Morals? Imperialism? Nah, I’m gonna spend my limited time and even more limited brainpower on cuisine debates… 🙄🤷
I’m not debating it just curious if it’s a thing where others are from
Pineapples are disgusting so I’d say they belong in the trash.
Not a fan of it.
Yeah i hate it in cheese cake haha
I don’t think I can agree with all that on a burger, though bacon, cheese, and pineapple on a burger could definitely work.
