Unpopular opinion, I guess: I know it's enough ketchup when it's dripping out of my burger. I use it sparingly everywhere else though.

@pechelman Now this is an unpopular opinion. Nicely done.

@Mizmazzle That's just common sense. Anyone who lives in CO or SoCal understands proper burrito etiquette. Take a bite, pour a little sauce on the next bite, and repeat.

@Tago-Mago You've got my vote. That was the darkest post I've ever seen on this forum.

where do you stand on grilled burritos or burritos with a cheese exterior?
-
@pechelman Why is there cheese on the exterior of the burrito? We might have to have some serious conversations about where cheese does and does not belong.

i think he's permanently closed now, but there used to be a guy that would throw a handful of cheese on a griddle, make it crispy on one side, and then wrap the grilled burrito in it. I think something like lowrider burrito in socal? Forget exactly. It was one of the most perfect breakfast burritos ive had. Especially the ones he'd throw jalapenos in the cheese...
edit; found their insta. lowkey burritos and he's closed
It's pretty easy to do this yourself though.

@pechelman That actually sounds pretty bomb. There's a place near me that does a layer of cheese between two tortillas, and those tortillas end up being the wrap for the burrito. It never ceases to amaze me where humans are able to hide more cheese in popular food items.

@pechelman damn that sounds magical
-
@jerkules I’m assuming there’s a slice of processed cheese hidden somewhere in that massacre….

-
@pechelman I do something similarly decadent and ridiculous: griddle a burrito, flip and while griddling the other side create a cheese skirt, then optionally dump chili on it.
-
@mclaincausey It's other-worldly, but kind of deadly. I tried it once and really enjoyed eating it, but it was too much. Might be a good burrito to split with someone.
Cheese skirts on smashed patties sounds pretty amazing. Might have to try it once, for science.

burgers are better without cheese
I've got your back.
Before being labeled blasphemer, I was born, raised, and still reside in Wisconsin. I know cheese. It's on everything around here. But, it is not on my beef...
FWIW, my burgers go on a hearty, buttered bun, topped with a little pico.
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

@seawolf yeah that tracks.
I make a mean smash burger on my stainless steel griddle insert. It’s called a Little Griddle. The one I got takes up all but about a 2” on all sides of the grill surface. They make different sizes. Why buy a Blackstone griddle when you can make your gas grill convertible?
That said, these guys completely humble my smash burgers. They grind brisket and short rib and then do this: https://www.instagram.com/share/BAHMBXeOxR
Potato bun, grilled onions, house made dill pickles, American cheese, and I opt for their gold sauce (buffalo and honey mustard mixed) and sometimes grilled jalapeño. I’ve not found the bacon to be necessary. They also do Oklahoma style (onions smashed into the patty) but I prefer their gold sauce other way.
Best burger on the planet.
And if it’s not obvious I am firmly on team cheese for burgers. Especially if it’s processed American cheese so it melts artificially well.
