A mediocre hamburger is better than a mediocre steak

r/

With the burger you get so much more flavor and can tailor it to your taste with the toppings and condiments. With a steak you’re at the mercy of whoever seasoned it and trusting they cooked it to your preference and thats about it, no wiggle room.

Also porkchops > steak

    I was with you until you said pork chops are better than steak. That’s the dumbest thing I’ve read on the internet all week.

    Imagine taking a Big Mac over a ribeye 😭 

    Edit: imagine taking a five guys burger over a ribeye 😭 

    (Idon’t eat fast food ever, but I can’t imagine taking even a five guys burger over a ribeye.)

    Edit 2: I guess I have the true unpopular opinion

    WHOA, way to bury the lede! I’ll grant that my mom probably overcooked every porkchop I ever ate, but there’s no way they’re better than a good steak!

    I would agree with you about the burger, though – a mediocre steak is a very sad thing.

    It’s crazy how this went from such a great opinion and then took such a hard 180 at the last second. Take my upvote you hooligan.

    I’ll take the steak because I can always turn a mediocre steak into some ace deuce fajitas!

    I’d rather have a mediocre hamburger than a good steak.

    Doesn’t a mediocre burger mean the whole thing is mediocre?(toppings, condiments etc)

    Think this might be a popular opinion.

    A mediocre hamburger is better than even the best steak.

    Pork chops are foul. I would take a burnt steak over a perfect pork chop every single day.

    So I would definitely pick a mediocre steak over a mediocre hamburger. This is going straight off of the meat, not bun/condiments. To be fair, you can dress a steak up as well to make it taste better, and the bun/condiments take away the flavor of the meat regardless of what you pick.

    Now I dont cook mediocre of any of the 3. While I love steak, it is hard to rank it ahead of my pork chop. My burgers are fire also. As are my steaks, but I feel I pull more flavored out of the first 2.

    For my burgers, I always have 2 at home. 1 with a bun/condiments, and then one plain after by itself. It is crazy the flavor that you get from the plain one that wasn’t in the other.

    I try to steer clear of mediocre, which is usually any restaurant we end up at… So we try to stick to eating good food at home.

    Isn’t this kind of like asking what weighs more, a ton of feathers or a ton of bricks. If you like steak and burgers equally to begin with shouldn’t they be the same? And if you don’t, then your opinion is just that burgers are better than steak.

    Pork chop being better than steak is chicken fil a propaganda

    Pork chop = better than steak destroys your credibility, sorry. The best pork chop ever cooked will not hold a candle to a decent steak.

    Tbh, a steak as in a big hunk of meat is a dumb meal anyway. I do like steak, but I’m not a huge fan of “a steak” if that makes sense.

    You were making a lot of sense until the end there when you went direct to crazy town.

    I agree with the mediocre burger vs steak part

    Some foods like pizza and burgers can be at fine across the range of quality. Cheap fast food burgers and pizza are usually at least edible. 

    Other foods like steak are only worth it for good quality. Seafood is the best example. Good quality seafood is amazing, bad quality seafood is heinous.
