Beef. Bison. Elk. Brioche. Bun. Sesame Seeds Bun. Loaf Bread. Cheese or No Cheese. A burger is so beautifully versatile. I'm hungry now...Grill...Broil...Fry. Options😆
I'll choose the chicken sandwich every time. Add some swiss cheese to melt on it. I've never been to any of the national burger or taco joints, but I love going to the local diner to get my chicken sandwich and fries. I also enjoy the drive- through / drive-in aspect of the diner.
The burger gives you versatility in the meat. The chicken sandwich gives you variation in preparation and flavor. It's sort of like vanilla vs. chocolate. The chicken is vanilla. It's a better carrier for flavor while the burger pushes the dominant flavor of whatever protein (or veggie thing) you pick. If you step outside American burgers and really spice and season the meat, that changes things but the only argument here was for condiments.
I’d say your analogy is backwards. Chicken is chocolate. It’s super solid solo. Fry it up, put it on a buttered bun. You’re golden. But a burger? A burger NEEDS some sort of grilled onions, bbq sauce, cheese etc. Someone hands you a beef patty on a bun with nothing else you’re throwing hands. Burgers are vanilla. There’s something there but it’s nothing like chocolate unless it’s got toppings.
Lol, y'all, there are 3 macronutrients: fats, proteins, and carbs. Fruits are carbs. Beans have protein and carbs. Avocado is technically fruit, but counts as a fat
I don’t eat either (pescatarian) but valid points on both sides. Burger can be beef, elk, bear, bison. Also more toppings and choices of cheese. Chicken has more versatility in the preparation - fried, grilled, shredded, salad. And more versatility in the combinations - barbecue, spicy, cordon blue, regular chicken salad, curry chicken salad. I think a tie for the debate 😊
Lolllollol, if the burger was not on a bun, it was on sliced bread and that is where the ratio is off. If there was no bread.....that burger was smothered in gravy and serves as salisbury steak! That's how that worked.
I’m with Josh with the burgers. But Dulce, the Cotton Candy Grapes are amazing. Josh, live a little, and try these grapes. They only come out once a year.
I'm not that into chicken burgers or sandwiches. I am very unimpressed by them, because I generally hate how everyone fries chicken, mostly. And I used to love beef burgers, but I will give this win to chicken sandwiches. They can be fried, grilled and their sauces are usually better than a sauce that is put on a beef burger.
The arguments seem to be restaurant based. I want to call out that at home, you can whatever you want. My chicken salad is mostly thigh meat cause I prefer that too. I would say “pulled beef” is either loose meat (like spare taco meat or a chopped cheese ) or braised short rib. There’s debate over whether either of those are burgers, but they do exist and they’re delicious.
Okay so, black chicken is called a Silkie (the breed), and I am still listening but Cornish hens and pheasant(Yeah, i am counting it as a type of chicken) is another breed. And I do think turkey burgers / chicken burgers also count towards chicken sandwiches! That is the versatility of chicken. It can be a burger if it wants to. Ground chicken, diced jalapeños and Colby jack cheese in the patty! Ya'll needed me in the room for this one! Lol😂 I am ready to defend chicken but low key I am a beef burger girl!😅
This is the first time that i disagree with both of you. Tomato and cucumber are vegetables as are melons. You have to replant vegetables after harvest, you don't need a new Apple tree or grape vine every time you harvest.
Dulce tried so hard but she lost when she opted for the salad. She gave up on sandwitch vs burger and went for chicken vs beef. XD Ground beef does all that and more.
The average burger is better than the average chicken sandwich. But I will usually choose Chick-fil-a. But above all, THE best chicken sandwich I've ever had was far better than the best burger I've ever had. The best things I've had between bread has been sandwiches, not burgers.
Chicken. I've probably had 10 burgers in the last 30 yrs. I agree on tartare and turkey bacon. HOWEVER...Al Fresco chicken bacon/sausage works, if you're trying to be healthy. The country style sausage patties taste like McDs, but without the fat. And the bacon is salty, gets crispy
Burgers hands down! The ONLY chicken sandwich I've ever liked is the Wendy's Spicy chicken sandwich! I do eat my bacon cheeseburgers on corn tortillas instead of buns.
I only like chicken sandwiches fried and they must be hot fresh and Crispy! Outside of that I'm all about burgers. You know something that wasn't mentioned about burgers versatility... You can make ground beef with pretty much any cut (ribeye, sirloin, brisket, chuck, etc) you also can adjust the fat to meat ratio. Also how come we haven't tried to make beef bacon yet. Pork, turkey, chicken... What about beef?
How is this even a debate? They're both great sandwiches. They can literally have all the same toppings or no toppings. But if you get a chicken sandwich with nothing on it, it MUST be a chicken thigh sandwich. Side note: I can't believe she didn't bring up the KFC double down sandwich, or either one of them that brought up McDonald's land air and sea sandwich 🤮
I prefer a burger, because of the pickle factor... But I definitely have enjoyed a breaded chicken sandwich as well.. I am a pickle fiend.. so I guess that is why the burger edges in front
Josh... love you, side with you more often than not... a little powder please, just to mellow the gloss. Any restaurant has 1 chicken sandwich to 5+ kinds of burgers.
Never been sick with a beef tartare or rare/blue meat ^^ Obviously not in the US. We have regulations. You guys are missing amazing food 😂 Ever tried a Vietnamese beef tartare? That thing is delicious!
