John Torode’s Burger Buns Like Meat in My Hands

Invited by MasterChef‘s John Torode to try the house burger at his new bar and grill on behalf of burgermonday I sunk into this two-hander with hope and hunger. The LUXE burger proved to be an irresistible hunk oozing beefy, cheesy, yolky juices with every bite. Lucious and lushish!

The only bummer was the bun.There were unsightly cracks on the surface of the top half, while the lower half was soaked and squished to the point where the bottom side of the burger patty was left virtually bare. My burgermonday group wouldn’t like that. I approached Torode at the kitchen pass and gave the MasterChef judge my critique:

added crisp fried onions to The LUXE burger“Eating it”, I told him without intent of sexual innuendo, “felt like holding a hot, greasy piece of meat in your hands”.

“Hmmm”, smirked Torode without missing a beat. “That’s one I haven’t heard before”. First I had egg on my hands. Now I had egg on my face.

Torode agreed the bun for a burger as explosive as his needed to perform better. He pledged to have new ones in place for the bloody burgermonday meatup at The LUXE in Spitalfields on the 26th of July.
