In 1989, at 12.30 am after a Friday night on the lash there was nothing as delicious as a chilli burger or two from the caravan outside Hounslow West Underground station. Mmmmmmmmm.......

The ringpiece on Saturday mornings was a different story.

When I was a kid up in Sheffield there used to be a brilliant place called Uncle Sams on Eccleshall Road. It did the best burgers with melted lancashire style white cheese. I've long since been exiled "dahn sarf" and have never found anywhere as good. Is Uncle Sams still there? Is it still great?
In the US Fudruckers are pretty good.. Build your own burger and chilli cheese fries too.. heartattacktastic!

Or can you name the ultimate all time burger daddy




Cookie
Made by me in my student days, called "The Heartstopper"

*cue sainsburys music* "This is not just a burger"
Take:

2 Quarter pound beefburgers
2 slices of cheddar
2 eggs
4 rashers of bacon
? Button mushrooms
salad, inc lettuce, tomato, cucumber
2 Onion rings.

It was subsequently renamed "The Dislocator" after a mate did himself a mischief trying to fit it into his mouth without squashing it good un proper first How we laughed.

from VERY hazy memory
there was a place right by the egg in san an, it did massive burgers to die for, made fresh and cooked just like you describe. but i only remember standing on the pavement to wait for my food.
think it had a random picture of a duck on the frontage.
aahhh happy days
