You dislike brioche buns because they’re greasy.

I dislike brioche buns because they’re overused by chefs that don’t know how to pair sweet bread with savoury meats.

We are not the same.

Thank you. Brioche buns are an abomination used by the fast food industry to trigger sugar reward signals and make their burgers just a bit more addictive. They’re not used with any good intentions whatsoever.

Po-tay-to! Boil em, mashed em, bake em into burger buns.

I’ve heard potato buns are also good, though I’ve never had them myself.

Imgonnatrythis ,

Can be… Never order to go, they are quite hydrophilic and get soggy easier.

tophneal ,

potato bread/buns are great! Try it if you ever get a chance

Dkarma ,

Wait, can we also accept pretzel? They’re pretty good.

Burgers are greasy, that doesn’t bother me. Brioche buns are sweet and too thick, that’s what bothers me.

Stop putting sugar in everything. I don’t want a sweet Burger

Fuckin commie right here. Probably not even doing your part supporting big pharma by buying insulin. This guy probably puts less than two pumps of syrup is his morning coffee. I hope a bald eagle craps on your Chinese electric car guy.

I treat myself because I deserve it. Keeps me focused on working to pay off the treats.

I feel personally attacked!

Besides, I actually opt not to coat them in butter, which means they are very much not greasy.

Most recipes tell you to smear melted butter on them right out the oven, but you don’t have to.

Dkarma ,

You mean egg wash???

I’m fine with a brioche bun, they’re upper tier buns

But don’t stack a load of stuff in there to the point the brioche disintegrates under the heft of it

That’s why we have the pretzel bun

(Likewise, don’t use a pretzel bun if you’re not gonna load it up, that bun needs grease for balance)

proudblond ,

Yes! Pretzel buns are the superior bun for holding a burger in your hands. Definitely needs moisture from the other ingredients though. Also they have great flavor. I’m personally not particularly fond of the overly sweet brioche buns.

Fuck you, brioche buns are the best and its the burger meats fault for being greasey

octopus_ink ,

It’s an entirely different level of mess you’d get on your hands eating a burger without a bun vs with a brioche bun. And anyhow, how are you getting all the fixins to stay in place without a bun? THAT is the primary purpose of the bun, IMO.

myster0n ,

He’s not against buns, he’s against brioche buns

octopus_ink ,

I realize that, but his objection is predicated on the “entire point” of a bun being to avoid greasy hands. I contend that is not the entire point, and that the brioche bun is not inferior with regard to the “entire point” of a bun.

NigelFrobisher ,

Also, because a burger without a bun is like having a sandwich without the bread.

GoOnASteamTrain ,

I love them because of a sesame allergy! Worry free brioche for the me! :)

gasgiant ,

So you know brioche buns should be ever so slightly sticky, but a sweet sticky, right?

Not to ruin your favourite burger place but maybe you should just buy some buns from a bakers and then see what they’re like fresh.

At the moment there are two options. You can’t quite tell the difference between brioche sticky and greasy sticky or your burger place manages to get grease all over your buns.

How good are they overall? Do you want to know the answer?

Edit: Damn it came to me just too late. At the moment you’re stuck in Heisenberg’s buns. Do you want to resolve that?

disguy_ovahea ,

You’re right. The “shininess” of a brioche is from the egg wash.

moshtradamus666 ,

That’s not the point of burgers in buns.

I hope this helps.

“HOW EVER CAN WE EAT THIS GLISTENING PUCK OF MEAT WITHOUT GETTING OUR HANDS ALL GREASY?!”

thenextguy ,
flamingo_pinyata ,

You get burgers which are possible to eat with hands?

NigelFrobisher ,

Truth. They’re so overstuffed and sloppy they have to put a stake through the middle to hold it together, and you end up eating it with a knife and fork.

RisingSwell ,

Used to be a place near me that had a knife in the middle so you could cut it in half. Top tier burger, but if it were any taller I wouldn’t be able to eat it properly
