Just curious as to how many people from other countries have tried a real Australian burger and their opinions of them.

Recipe:
Bread roll
Beef Steak
Chopped Onion
Tomato sauce
Sliced Beetroot
Cheddar
Sliced pineapple
Sliced Tomato
Grated Carrot

Optional: egg, tomato, bacon

Cook steak to desired rarity.

Half way through the steak cooking throw the pineapple slice and chopped onion on.

Rip bun apart with your bare hands. (Like a real man ) Butter and toast it.

Put on roll in this order. Steak, Cheese, Pineapple, Onion, Lettuce, Beetroot, Carrot.

Put sauce inside of the top half of the bun and put on top.





Very filling, tasty, and ads a lot of vitamins.

Is there a particular reason that this is termed Australian?

nope.

just that alot of americans find it weird that we put beetroot and egg into our burgers.

and that hungry jacks (burger king) thought to capitalise on this, so they introduced the 'aussie burger'

Ah. So it's similar to a fair amount of Outback's menu, then.

the only thing that makes it australian is the beetroot, and maybe when theyre cooked on the barbie

We have charcoal grills in the States too, though...

oh yeah,

we also sometimes put pineapple into our burgers.

i think the crude oil gives it a better flavor

Ugh, fuck beetroot.

At least when we say egg on our menus we mean egg.

Dude, what the fuck?

If it's not completely black and tough as an old boot then it's not Australian.
