naw dude there are some WACK burgers and cici's is gross but not THAT gross, you would eat a cici's pizza and be proud if someone brought one to a party or something

ok maybe not PROUD but
maybe i should have put burritos on here
― purp (roxymuzak), Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:09 (eleven years ago) link
to complicate the poll
it would no longer be an easy poll with burritos
― ciderpress, Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:12 (eleven years ago) link
hot dogs may have the lowest ceiling of these but i think they also have the highest floor. it's possible to make a truly vile pizza or burger but hot dogs are made in a factory so you can't really change them much on the base level

burger w/ caramelized onions on it is pretty much gastronomic divinity

burger > pizza > (burrito) > hot dog, but the gap from 1 to 4 is not huge if all 4 are good quality

Pizza - gotta represent the national food of the UK (OK, 2nd after Tikka Masala).

I thought in the UK that tikka masala was often served on a pizza

you can put pizza on anything just ask my local deli
"what's a pizza burger"(angrily) "it's a burger with pizza on it"
this means it has mozzarella and marinara fyi

my local bodega makes this cheeseburger pizza where they put, i think, little paddies of ground beef onto a pizza and cheese on top of that (burger cheese)
― 乒乓, Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:50 (eleven years ago) link
the biggest thing I miss about the pizza place I worked in during senior year of high school was their amazing taco pizza, which used refried beans instead of marinara sauce and the most amazingly seasoned ground beef

i've had too many awful attempts at 'mexican' pizza to ever try something like that ever again regardless of praise
― ciderpress, Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:53 (eleven years ago) link
after it came out of the oven, it was garnished with tortilla chips, lettuce, shredded cheese, olives and salsa
it was fucking amazing
― relentless technosexuality (DJP), Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:54 (eleven years ago) link
That's on special occasions like the Queen's birthday and Bank Holidays.
― Will you see a political publicity stunt? (snoball), Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:55 (eleven years ago) link
I think the secret to a good Mexican pizza is limiting the number of ingredients that go into the pizza oven; IIRC we baked it with refried beans, hamburger, onion and two types of cheese (mozzarella, cheddar) and added other toppings on top, really making it a taco/nachos hybrid
― relentless technosexuality (DJP), Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:57 (eleven years ago) link
burgers and hot dogs are great but yes it's pizza. Also I'm getting bored by every aspirational restaurant having some half assed attempt at a high end burger bc it's usually weak.

nothing fucks up a burger faster than putting it on a fancy bun
burgers are supposed to be about the meat IMO; if I really wanted to eat a pretzel, I would have ordered one and not put meat on it
― relentless technosexuality (DJP), Thursday, 4 April 2013 17:59 (eleven years ago) link
The next fast food sensation, meat pretzels.

sometimes I just want a basic "pub burger" and the only thing available is a bleu cheese and arugula monstrosity.

caramelized onions? god, get a life
― purp (roxymuzak), Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:03 (eleven years ago) link
i'm going for a burger because often i have been the victim of overeating due to leftover slices just lying there... tempting me...
― 乒乓, Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:04 (eleven years ago) link
I am not a big fan of caramelized onions on burgers. I feel like they have a baconish cult wrt their usage as a burger ingredient.

In my experience, pub pizza is usually one of those Findus french bread pizza things, like eating a footballer's shin guard with bits of pineapple on it.

good god man
pub pizza ime is v thin crust and cut into squares. It's a Midwest thing. usually serviceable but at its best incredible.

NO RETCH RETCH!! Granted I only eat veggie burgers so maybe they're particularly bad on them but DJP otm fancy buns fuck up burgers real fast.
― Airwrecka Bliptrap Blapmantis (ENBB), Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:09 (eleven years ago) link
I think that a good rule of thumb re: fancy burgers is "Would Elvis reject this for being too pretentious?"

carmelized onions rank up there with sundried tomatoes in the "most overrated food ingredient" stakes
in general I prefer my fruits and vegetables raw
― relentless technosexuality (DJP), Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:11 (eleven years ago) link
none of these foods should be served fancily imo

sundried tomatoes are gross, i agree

My all time favorite pizza places are ones I actively miss. idk if I've ever felt that way abt a burger.
― christmas candy bar (al leong), Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:14 (eleven years ago) link
of course I'm in LA which is home to either super high end and overrated Mozza type pies or nightmarish "2 large pizzas for $2" spots.

Raw onion, good dill pickles and mustard are keys to burger success.
― The Complete Afterbirth of the Cool (WilliamC), Thursday, 4 April 2013 18:16 (eleven years ago) link
is fresh mozz just like.. slice unbaked mozz on top of tomato sauce?
― Woody Ellen (Matt P), Thursday, 4 April 2013 19:25 (eleven years ago) link
I have another opinion but it might get me banned from 1p3.
― Heyman (crüt), Thursday, April 4, 2013 3:17 PM
don't even think about disparaging the pizza sub
― ω (carne asada), Thursday, 4 April 2013 19:25 (eleven years ago) link
xps I'm the opposite, I've got to have stuff crust/burger crust, crazy toppings, loaded down with stuff.
― Will you see a political publicity stunt? (snoball), Thursday, 4 April 2013 19:25 (eleven years ago) link
critical topping mass is when too many toppings make crust soggy imo

― Woody Ellen (Matt P), Thursday, 4 April 2013 19:27 (eleven years ago) link
― Woody Ellen (Matt P), Thursday, April 4, 2013 3:25 PM
it's fresh mozzarella slices used in lieu of the regular shredded mozzarella
― ω (carne asada), Thursday, 4 April 2013 19:27 (eleven years ago) link
yea the mozz is baked but i think on normal pies they use like the processed mozz, you know? and on fresh mozz it's fresh
diced onions = so so ace

I endorse keeping pizzas simple.
An Italian pizza joint will never be any better than their margarita. If they can't do that right, don't go.

The most important ingredients are the Prosciutto Crudo and the Gorgonzola. If those two are okay, then you can build from there.

let's not discount the simple pleasures of a well-steamed/grilled 1/4 lb kosher hot dog. it's just not fair to compare it to class-a burgers and pizza.

i went to a baseball game yesterday and at halftime they had a race between mascot-style costumed dudes representing a bag of popcorn, a slice of pizza, and a hotdog. some kid near me was screaming "go pizza!!!!" before they even began racing. popcorn knocked pizza to the ground, causing him to lose the race. we left the game immediately. i feel like pizza has been avenged today.
