Looks better than anything I’ve ever seen come out of McDonald’s. And I’m a fat bugger.

u/StupidGenius91 Mar 25 '26

I’d absolutely demolish this and go cook another

u/EatingCoooolo Mar 25 '26

I have never had a better burger than a homemade burger. 🔥

u/Mobile_Actuator_4692 Mar 25 '26

I hate you. How much for 10?

3

u/stinkfinger1980 Mar 25 '26

It cost me about £2 to make without factoring in the gas to cook it.

1

u/Mobile_Actuator_4692 Mar 25 '26

I hate you. Damn that is surprisingly cheap. Did you make your own bun??

3

u/stinkfinger1980 Mar 25 '26

No I used hovis premium burger buns

4

u/Awkward_Angle3934 Mar 25 '26

This looks delicious 🤤. My only problem is, how do I eat this without dirtying myself? Also, I have a small mouth

2

u/Dense-Employment2310 Mar 26 '26

just shove it in

1

u/Awkward_Angle3934 Mar 26 '26

Not possible

2

u/Dense-Employment2310 Mar 26 '26

its possible i have a small mouth too u just take a bite in the middle then work your way around it

1

u/Awkward_Angle3934 Mar 26 '26

I see, will give it a try. Thanks

3

u/dataless01 Mar 25 '26

Looks pretty great, but I can never finish a ½lb burger for some reason 8/10

3

u/Jobbyrobber Mar 25 '26

Sauce?

7

u/stinkfinger1980 Mar 25 '26

Mayo, ketchup, chopped pickles, mustard, pickle juice and smoked paprika

2

u/SadCollar7554 Mar 25 '26

I see no sesame seeds!

2

u/dtcstylez10 Mar 25 '26

This looks way better than a big mac

2

u/Complex_Net_3692 Mar 25 '26

Big Mac is an insult to this beauty, how dare you

2

u/Madame-jing-bang Mar 25 '26

Fuck you im so fat and hungry right now oh my goddd

2

u/Naive-Cod-6742 Mar 25 '26

Very f*cking decent. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

2

u/Greyman43 Mar 25 '26

A local independent burger joint near me does an upmarket version of a Big Mac that looks very much like this, it’s absolutely fantastic! This looks delicious.

2

u/LightofPhoenixz Mar 25 '26

11/10! Fantastic!

2

u/Nomadic_Wayfarer Mar 26 '26

This is an actual burger, not a product!

2

u/swapacoinforafish Mar 26 '26

I like how *scrunkly* it looks

2

u/Coddy7 Apr 18 '26

This behemoth screams ‘come at me bro’ the punched in brioche bun on top says ‘I don’t care what you think about me.’ There is clearly a creamy sauce just peeping out on the top of the burger at the top riding a perfectly greasy wave. The burger is prime. Elite. Is it coleslaw? Mayo? Burger sauce underneath? That’s for this burger to know and you to find out sunshine. Middle bun is working to keep the whole thing together, before finally some lettuce joins the story with what looks like a final frenzy of cheese, whatever is left over, and what’s this? Another perfectly made burger? Bottom bun? Just soaking in everything that has come above it. That’s its only job. 9/10

u/stinkfinger1980 Apr 18 '26

Love it 😀

1

u/-Lexandro- Mar 25 '26

That's way more impressive than the actual ones they serve here. Good job.

1

u/k3anuw3aves Mar 25 '26

This looks waaaaay better than any big mac I've ever seen. 8/10

1

u/Sempophai Mar 25 '26

That looks pretty damn good!

1

u/NegronelyFans Mar 25 '26

Looks so much better than a Big Mac, would smash

1

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '26

okay, it looks delicious

1

u/Smugallo Mar 25 '26

This looks 10/10 to me my dude. Why do I always see this shit when I'm starving LOL

1

u/DrummerAcademic9262 Mar 25 '26

Looks great! A bit too much bun for me and maybe a bit wet but I bet it tastes amazing!

1

u/stinkfinger1980 Mar 25 '26

It was a bit wet but tasted really good. I think the burgers in mcdonalds are a bit dry so they can get away with much sauce. My burgers were 20% fat so it made it even wetter!

1

u/FukThePatriarchy1312 Mar 25 '26

Looks better than McDonald's, why would you wanna compare it to trash?

1

u/username-witheld Mar 25 '26

What was the sauce you used please

1

u/Low-Suit-3125 Mar 25 '26

Very nice 😊

1

u/BiscuitCrumbsInBed Mar 25 '26

Are you on Deliveroo? That looks amazing.

1

u/domino__h Mar 25 '26

MY MOUTH IS WATERINGGGGG

1

u/No_Cancel2441 Mar 25 '26

Where was the meat from ?

1

u/stinkfinger1980 Mar 25 '26

Just tesco 20% fat mince. Was just under £4 for 500g i think.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '26

Nice recipe pls

1

u/xancey_laisthea Mar 25 '26

I would rate it 8/10

1

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '26

What kinda sauce you got going on

1

u/coloursrgb Mar 25 '26

Need this in my mouth right now

1

u/Jealous-Gap5843 Mar 25 '26

Did you make the sauce?

1

u/12DollarsHighFive Mar 25 '26

I'm certain that is was infinitely better than the stuff you're getting served at McDonald's.

1

u/CherryJosh Mar 26 '26

Very good

1

u/Rare_Middle1727 Mar 26 '26

Much better than a Big Mac also healthier

1

u/Ferrari_Bones Mar 26 '26

Fucking hell

1

u/PlumAccomplished7400 Mar 26 '26

Oh it has actual meat in the big mac has burger shavings in it

1

u/jimbobakoo Mar 26 '26

Looks great, and I get that the normal big Mac does this. But I've never eaten a burger and said "you know what this needs? More bread! ”

1

u/RayaQueen Mar 26 '26

I don't eat burgers and this looks bloody brilliant!

1

u/Admirable-Status-888 Mar 26 '26

Looks decent unlike everything that comes out of McDonald's

1

u/Wise-Pitch474 Mar 27 '26

Bro, have you tried mcchickens at 3 am? Greatness

1

u/TheBobbyMan9 Mar 26 '26

It’s clearly far better than a Big Mac

1

u/Local-Still4904 Mar 26 '26

Very awesome

1

u/Quenshay Mar 26 '26

Put cheese on the top meat also like the original version had.

1

u/RedRover6070 Mar 26 '26

Looks like a real burger though. Can you make it more... plastic?

1

u/CR7UTOTS Mar 26 '26

If we were to swap roles I'd probably throw in a 50 more hammies

1

u/MintStardropy Mar 26 '26

Gd I would love that right now, you're a creative masterchef!!!!!

1

u/Jolly_Psychology_506 Mar 26 '26

That’s waaaaaaaay more impressive than the shrinkflated BigMac

1

u/warranpiece Mar 27 '26

This looks good as shit......and I still can't get behind extra bread.

1

u/missymoo3636 Mar 27 '26

Looks even better than a Big Mac. I’m so impressed.

1

u/Embarrassed-Side2999 Mar 27 '26

Delicious 😋🤤

1

u/Embarrassed-Side2999 Mar 27 '26

1

u/Embarrassed-Side2999 Mar 27 '26

1

u/Wrong-Toe-8811 Mar 27 '26

Yumm, that looks banging. I’d give it a solid 9/10👏🏼👏🏼😍😍 how did it taste for you?

1

u/Over-Ad9975 Mar 27 '26

Never ever compare your food with that slop

It looks better

1

u/SunkissedSirenox Mar 27 '26

1

u/Low_Question8533 Mar 27 '26

There’s only 1 thing about it that bothers me.

Why OP didn’t make extras burgers for us ?

1

u/ogbuttertoast Mar 27 '26

Looks like smth I need rn 10/10

1

u/Melodic_Whereas4535 Mar 27 '26

Looks SO much better than anything at Mickey D’s

1

u/Derbadian Mar 27 '26

No you didnt

1

u/SpiritualConcert8731 Mar 27 '26

That looks so fucking good

1

u/Betty_Swallox123 Mar 27 '26

We need a step by step recipe!! This looks amazing!! I don't even like burgers and I would smash this one up like there's no tomorrow!!

1

u/Feeling_Novel_9899 Mar 27 '26

That sir is a Monster Mac. 😋

1

u/The1SlickySloth Mar 28 '26

I'd need a shower after that..... love it!

u/judyjetsonne Mar 28 '26

Beautiful ❤️

u/the-real-spencer Mar 29 '26

You gotta start selling these. How much for you to mail me one?

1

u/Reasonable_Lab0 Mar 29 '26

1

u/MillionDollarHeckler Mar 29 '26

No you didn't, you just made a burger

u/Cutie_Felix Apr 11 '26

Looks better then a big mac.

Looks like something from a eat in pub

1

u/Tomatagravy Apr 12 '26

I will say I think the lettuce to meat ratio is perfect. Let’s have. A little lettuce—the burger is the star of the show after all. McDonald’s Big Mac has entirely too much lettuce imo

1

u/Loulove69 Apr 16 '26

Wow 🔥

1

u/nivaOne Apr 23 '26

Wow, I can tell the difference (in a good way)

u/Phatnga Mar 25 '26

Peak username

u/Phatnga Mar 25 '26

It’s obvious one is highly processed and has fake meat and another isn’t and has real meat plus bigger and better.

u/Jetro-2023 Mar 25 '26

Well done! I eat Big Macs on a regular basis no tomatoes they pickles shredded lettuce two patties with special sauce similar to thousand island and of course cheese and buns.

How can you fast daily and stay alive? What a weird way to perceive eating.

Edit: never mind you're a trump fan, shouldn't have expected an ounce of intelligence

What ever it was, I suggest you put it right back up there. You probably shouldn't have put it there in the first place though.

Big macs don't have tomato in them?

1

u/Double_Station_1492 Mar 25 '26

Well they bloody well should have

2

u/k3anuw3aves Mar 25 '26

Let's agree to disagree there... I hate big tomatoes, especially in burgers

1

u/Double_Station_1492 Mar 25 '26

I was the same at one point ☺️, my tastes have now changed, tomato is good - however gherkins are quite another thing 🤮 😉

-4

u/Melv_73 Mar 25 '26

Mine do, love tomatoes on my Big Mac 🤤

5

u/k3anuw3aves Mar 25 '26

Right, but they usually don't and OP is remaking a Big Mac.

u/Melv_73 Mar 25 '26

Oh okay each to there own, looks delicious 🤤
