Tried the fried pickle ranch Whopper

King RiptorKing Riptor Registered User regular
Wont be trying the others because they have onion straw things. Hate em but they're also key to the burger so it's unfair to take them off and review it

So first off the fried pickles have an even shorter time limit than fries. Don't get this to go. Its a dine in burger.

The burger itself is decent if lacking somethings. Its a whopper so you know what you're getting there. Not sure if the cheese was white American or the weird mozzarella slices they use sometimes. It wasn't really necessary for the burger. The impossible burger variant if you're able to get it would probably be excellent .

I suggest adding tomato and ketchup and if you're wild extra regular pickles. Really ups the flavor profile they're trying to get across.

Unrelated but they gave me extra cheesy tots instead of chicken nuggets I got for my dog. One of the rare instances I hated getting more cheesey tots

    They only offered the mexican street corn and maple bacon at bk here
    I just got a Texas Double whopper at 6am. Pickles and Jalapenos are sour as F if eaten together

    The Burger King once laid absolute waste to my tract like 30m before I was supposed to meet my girlfriends' parents.

    I'll never forgive him, nor the church whose ideology justifies his vile throne.

    Okay, this is important. Are they pickle chips or pickle fries, because there is one acceptable answer.

    e: it's chips, coins, slices etc
    Get outta here with a wedge, ain't like a steak fry! Just asking for soggy breading.

    They're similar in shape to their chicken or mozzarella fries

    Ah, so they've chosen violence.

    e: I'll allow maybe they're thin enough for the breading to stand up to the moisture. But if they're not crispy from the jump, what are they even doing?

    Yeah I don’t like the fried pickle spears as much as the chips or slices.

    Seriously I hate wedges for this. Chips are superior in every way!

    I don’t care what the shape is. Fry my pickle baby!

  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    I just wish pickles weren't such a pain in the ass to deep fry on my own.

    When deep frying stuff, you want it as dry as possible so no excess moisture reacts (violently) with the hot oil any more than it has to. Also batter won't stick well to wet things. So each and every individual pickle chip needs to be dried as much as possible, a process that entails many paper towels and time because they're always floating in liquid so they've got way more than it might seem, before they can even get battered up.

    Like 15-20 years ago, some people took me to a place in Philly that was on diners drive-ins and dives, I think it might have been for my 25th birthday? And they had the most amazing fried pickles I have ever eaten, I still think about how sour and how crunchy they were, something with the breading had like a nuttiness to it

    I don't want to track The Place down and go there now and ruin the memory, I'm sure it wouldn't be the same.

    I’ve been to a few places that The Mayor of Flavortown has featured here and nothing all that special

    That’s not my best “real-life connection to a bored-cable-surfing-show-to-have-on-in-the-background”

    My room mate dated a lady who had a Snapped episode about her. Her next boyfriend after my room mate.

    last year my childhood friend and I went to Vegas for our 40th bday (his request) and he decided he wanted to try out Guy Fieri's restaurant. a bit pricey, but it was a birthday thing so why not?

    and turns out? actually pretty darn good! I wouldn't pay that much for that kind of food on the regular, but I'm glad I gave it a try

    got the dumpster nachos or whatever, and definitely much tastier than the name would imply

    The best burger I ever had was at the house of blues in Cleveland

    Twas a juicy Lucy with smoked provolone and fried jalapenos

    I do not remember what that burger or restaurant was called. It had the nickname of the barn burger
    A chicken breast with bacon and two 1/4 patties with a ranch dressing with cheese between two buns {it was the 90's} I could wolf that down

    I don't really like pickles so fried pickles don't do it for me.

    Fried banana peppers though? Fuck yeah. I could eat a whole basket.

    Walking the Vegas strip felt like I was exploring an urban Feywild.

    Beholding an incredible volume of wondrous sights and sounds, all impossibly varied with the same underlying goal: enticing me to come closer and agree to their lopsided terms.

    Architecture built explicitly to destroy my sense of time and place and shovel the wreckage into a confusion more likely to linger.

    And of course, at the end of my journey, a fountain of boozy baja blast
