Cityscape seeks out some of the truly epic burgers on offer around Christchurch.
BurgerFuel // The Bastard
Ingredients: 100% pure grass-fed beef, melted cheddar, bacon, raw grated beetroot with chia seeds, mango, smashed avocado, salad, tomato relish and free-range aioli.
One of the originals on the menu at the first BurgerFuel store. The Bastard is like a pizza with ‘the works’ and once people got over the polarising mango and beef combo, it quickly became one of the most popular burgers on the menu.
The Burger Joint // The Bomb
Ingredients: 100% pure NZ beef, bacon, cheese, egg, beetroot relish, lettuce, onion and pickles.
From a menu of sumptuous choices, including kimchi and a delicious grilled eggplant vegetarian option, The Bomb stands out. It’s been on the menu since the New Brighton eatery’s start as a food truck and it continues to please the punters. The name says it all – this is one stacked burger.
Slick Burgers // 420
Ingredients: 2 x prime NZ beef patties, crispy bacon, 2 x cheddar cheese slices, gherkins, beetroot, jalapenos, fried egg, hash brown, lettuce, tomato, BBQ sauce and mayo.
The 420 is a staple on Slick Burgers’ menu. Everything you could want on a bangin’ burger (times two!), it’s jam-packed with the ultimate flavour combinations. The patties are juicy and delicious, the salads are fresh, the bacon is plentiful and the buns are crispy.
