In 2017 and 2018, the city was full of hamburger restaurants. Medallions appeared with Meat mixtures, steak eye, roasts; and suddenly what was a fast food meal became a gourmet option. However, the homemade burger has never lost its place. That’s why it’s worth it know which is the best among the frozen products sold in the supermarket.
In these cases, the word of a burger expert is the best source: Which hamburger does he think is the best we can buy? Those of us who don’t want or can’t make our own medallion.
Through a blind tasting the YouTuber and current catering entrepreneur Burger Kid, owner of Kiddowhich is considered one of the best hamburger restaurants in the city, tried five brands of industrial hamburgers and chose her favorite.
Alejandro Roig became Burger Kid when talking about hamburgers on social media wasn’t yet a national sport. His project grew so much that he now delivers 40,000 burgers per month at Kiddohis location in Cañitas, while his followers continue to pledge eternal love in the comments.
Far from remaining in the role of influencer He immersed himself in the kitchen: he learned, he tasted, he traveled, He became obsessed with it and founded a place that had a simple yet difficult premise: making a delicious, quick burger with good ingredients. The public thanks you with something more valuable than a “like”: 40 minute wait for a smash.
Kiddo was a pioneer in introducing a new style of burger: thin, crispy, without strange spices or heavy bread and with only three options on the menu (a trend others later repeated). Today they have locations in Cañitas, Palermo and Miami.
Burger Kid accepted the Fuera de Carta podcast challenge: Blindly try five brands of frozen hamburgers available in the supermarket. The choices were Swift, Paty, Unión Ganadera, NotCo and La Huella, Carrefour’s own brand.
Before you begin, even though you’ve tasted some of the best hamburgers in the world, clear this up During his time as a YouTuber, he traveled to the top ranked placesthere’s something about the frozen hamburger: “Every time I come across this type of hamburger at a birthday party or in the club, I go crazy, I eat 3 or 4. It’s something delicious,” he admits.
He also remembered eating hamburgers at home as a child: “We ate Good Markwhat was the best, then the quality dropped.” And he confessed what his current specialty is: a paty with “Doro”, a regular hamburger, to which he adds Doritos or packets of French fries.
For tasting they serve you the five hamburgers on the same tray and tell you that the bread chosen is Kalis, the same one he uses in his premises.
The first option has a catch: it doesn’t involve meat. It’s a vegan medallion from NotCo, and the expert recognizes it immediately: “The color is very controversial, it’s not meat, I’m telling you that. Whether it’s soy or not, it’s meat, and if it has meat, it has very little,” he shoots.
When you try the second, classic Swift, your face changes at the first bite: “The fat comes through, it’s a little saltier. It’s nice here. I would hate everything. “This one surpassed the previous one,” he says as he continues to eat.
Then Paty comesalso in its classic version. “This one offers a little more resistance, but is still good” he comments, chewing more than before. “Thicker. “I can eat anything.”
When he tastes Unión Ganadera, he says, “I liked this one the least because it has a stronger fatty taste.” The hardest thing of all.”
Upon arrival on La Huella medallion, Carrefour brandthe thickness attracts attention. “It’s plumper, but quite salty.”much fatter. “I don’t like it when he’s so fat.”
Finally, they reveal the ranking according to their personal taste: First place went to Swift; the second for Patyand made it clear that they are almost a draw for him. Unión Ganadera took third place and he confessed that he usually buys this brand. La Huella came in fourth place and NotCo’s vegan medallion came in last place.
