pabs Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Avocado and Habanero sounds like a good combo. I'm not sure I'll like the Habanero flavor in combination with the meat though. But I love cooking chili with three to five Habaneros for the whole pot, so I guess I will. Honestly, I never managed to get the patty right when I made burgers. You don't add anything but salt and Habanero? Was that what I did wrong, tried adding too many spices? Do you use a yellow or a red Habanero? I use yellow. Haven't tried red ones....how do they compare? If you get really good quality meat, I think all it needs is salt and habanero. The quality typically speaks for itself, you usually don't need anything too insane in it. The bacon, avocado, and aged cheddar add a lot of interesting flavors as well... I'm always open to tips though, so if you find a way to spice the meat that works, let me know! I'm always trying to improve. The bottom line will always remain...if you get good meat and don't overcook it, it will taste good regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't tried red ones....how do they compare? The red one's aren't as good. They're just the same thing with less flavor and more hotness. Pretty pointless, I try to avoid them. Where you'd normally use three yellow ones, you can only use one red one to get to the same level of hotness, hence the reduced flavor. The only good use for them is if you dry them and make them into a powder imo. Yellow ones are best. Have you ever seen green ones? I found them at an Indian supermarket and got all excited, but they're a complete letdown. They're just not ripe, barely hot and taste like raw celery or something. Not worth it. black pudding is a sausage made from pig blood, pork fat, and oatmeal. it tastes liek fuckin awesome and makes you into a warrior. I am convinced this shit and Leberwurst are the reason I am 2 meters tall. I ate this stuff like mad as a child. Can I make this but use ghost peppers instead of pussy habaneros? where you get those insane bastards? I've always wanted to try one. Me too, although I doubt they will have such a unique taste like the Habanero. I choose eating pussy over eating ghosts. You think anyone else ever said that last sentence before?

I have never had an in-n-out burger before. that's why I was asking about 5 guys burgers and fries on the west coast. there has been an explosion of burger chains here lately with 5 guys, smashburger, zinburger, elevation burger and Bobby (flay's) burger palace and I'm curious to how it compares.

I know, it's just a pipe dream. I really want to open a gourmet hot dog shop though. I have a true love and infatuation with the Chicago hot dog. I'd like to offer an authentic version here along with different styles of dogs like ny style, a Mexican version, etc. I have a whole menu planned and logo designed. all I need is money, restaurant experience and a set of balls.

I'm a hot sauce/hot pepper/heat guy but my wife is not as much so. also, that cheddar is pretty specific but I'm assuming as long as I use a decent cheddar and not a mass market one I should be ok no? edit: that place looks epic luke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a "Mrs Renfros" Ghost Pepper salsa, and the ghost peppers are about the second to last ingredient on the list, and it's pretty intense. *Although one time my girlfriend made this salad with an "interesting" looking pepper she came across and it was literally too hot to eat. She put a veritable shit ton in the salad, too. I mean, it was fucking painful. Never got an ID. You need to put a fried egg on it. You need to put a fried donk on it.
