View Full Version : Life -- How do you all feel about chili cheeseburgers?

I mean - I really like them. I'm fairly particular with these gems.

I like the chili to be beanless, I'm not sure if It'd cause me to decline the burger if it had beans, just not my preference.

Additionally there is no burger out there that I can eat without chopped white onion - or really any raw onion, now this is absolutely required.

When I go with the Chili Cheeseburger - I'll add only chopped/raw onions and mustard. That's the combo that works best for those puppies (at least for me)

Are there any spots in KC (or where ever you may live)...? Any spots that have exceptional chili cheeseburgers where you are?

Do you like the same topping as I do - or would you do a different mix of condiments?

Today is my cheat day. I went to a Georgia Fuddruckers-like place on the way home. It is called Cheesebuger Bobby's

(picture and URL below) I apologize I couldn't find a Bobby's chili cheeseburger picture.

Bobby's was solid - It wasn't sensational - but I'll return - clean/new facility - friendly help.

Really fresh condiment bars. Nice 'zesty' white, chopped onions.

I'm overall pretty pleased. I'd consider Franchisee'ing one of these ****ers if I had the dough. People like solid burger joints.

It's darned good - close to as good as their burgers. I really like five guys. I'm still shocked so many prefer Red Robin to Five Guys - but RR brainwashes you all w/ their handsome packaging - another example of people eating with their eyes, first. This is why a good Chef is so big on presentation -

A couple of years ago I was with my wife's family at some hipster burger joint in San Francisco. I took a look at the menu and saw a Chile burger listed. Me being the unsophisticated southerner that I am, thought to myself "a chili cheeseburger sounds great right now!"

You can imagine my disappointment when this showed up:

I always get more chili and chili burger gunk on me and my shirt when I eat them. I do love them.
I used to get a cup Wendy's chili and a single cheese burger and 86 the lettuce and pile on there chili.
Why? because I could and at Wendy's I feel quiet comfortable there wearing my chili suit.

Do you like onions at all? Generally I'll omit the tomatoes and any pickles - though I still like both - I will chow a pickle spear, no problem there - but I don't welcome the texture of a tomato slice - however I must tell you - it's not a deal breaker either.

For example:

If I go to Five Guys, I'll get he single w/ cheese no tomato, however I'm cool w/ them including those pickle-slices - because I'll usually just pluck them off of the burger top and eat them either before or after the main burger and fries.

I want to try 5 guys. The burger thread made them sound very good.

I just tried Squeeze In and it was delicious. I could not handle the Squeeze Cheeze though. Way too much cheese.

A big hunk raw white or yellow onion is a must, although a good change up is a big pile of caramelized onions. That works too.

I hate mayo. Mayo kills a great burger for me. Ketchup and mustard are the perfect combination of flavor.

I like a burger with lettuce, tomato, pickle and raw or caramelized onions. That does it for me.

I rarely have a bacon burger because the bacon just overpowers an already great burger. I have bacon on lousy or mediocre burgers to hide how bad they are. On a delicious burger, I just don't see the point of it. It would be like burying a filet mignon in steak sauce.

Agree. Chili no onions doesn't work at all. The crunch and pop of raw white or yellow onions is THE perfect complement to chili. Otherwise it is just sweet gooy stuff.

I second that it is FACT that raw onion goes with Chili.

I'm lazy and cheap, Aldi can of buttermilk biscuits and a package of McCormick sausage flavor gravy works for me, about 3 bucks and feeds a family of 3 with leftovers.

Why do you hate your family so much?

What could be easier than sausage gravy? Flop a lb of your favorite sausage in a cast iron skillet and break it up while you brown it. Sprinkle some flour on it. Stir it some more until the flour gets soaked up by the sausage. Pour milk on it, adjusting the quantity to make the consistency right. Cook till it bubbles. Salt, pepper. It's done before you can preheat the oven and bake the biscuits.

The very base is 2 slices of raw white onions about 1/4" thick each. No hiding that on the bottom of a burger. It is NOT a subtle flavor. Make sure to click the bar on the picture to see what I'm talking about.

Yeah I'm a big fan of the poppy seed bun. It combines the visual appeal of black on tan, the texture of grinding those little guys between my teeth, the nutty-fruity flavor profile, and the thrill that comes with risking 12 years in a Turkish prison due to a failed drug test.

Way too much cinnamon IMO.

If you want a tried and true chili sauce for dogs try this:

1 lb. ground beef browned and drained
3/4 t oregano
3/4 t cumin
3 T chili powder
1 small onion chopped fine
1/2 t salt
2 C water
1/4 t Cayenne pepper
Tiny pinch of cinnamon

Combine all ingredients and simmer for at least one hour.

It will seem like to much liquid when done but it is meant to be spooned onto a hot dog with a regular spoon.

Take it out the next morning and let it come to room temp. Then add thick chili on top of the polenta "crust." Now make your cornbread batter with corn kernels, minced jalapeno and finely diced sharp cheddar added in. Poor that over the chili carefully making sure to get in in between the chili and the sides of the pie pan. Bake that shit and you are going to get some serious chili pie.
