| Paging Homer Simpson: Your burger is ready [message #284496] |

An article that ran in the St. Petersburg (FL) Times a few days ago caught
my eye. The Old Homestead Steak House now offers the "Tri-Beef Burger,"
which owner Mark Sherry calls, "the Beluga caviar of sandwiches." As the
name suggests, it's made of three kinds of beef: Colorado corn-fed beef,
free-range Argentine cattle, and Japanese Wagyu cattle that "were raised on
soybeans and beer, then bathed in sake and hand-massaged." (I assume the
sake bath and massage comes after the cow has been butchered, but the
article leaves it open to interpretation.)
The restaurant uses twenty ounces of beef for the burger, which is 5 1/2
inches across and 2 1/2 inches thick. It's fried in grapeseed oil, served
on a Brioche bun, and topped with heirloom tomatoes, fancy mushrooms, and
"organic microgreens." Blue cheese is a no-cost option. If you want fries,
though, that's extra.
Owner Sherry doesn't approve of adding mayo, mustard, or ketchup to his
burger. He does offer a chipotle sauce mixed with truffles and champagne if
you want an additional topping.
The burger comes with a price tag of $100. The article quotes the owner as
saying, "I don't expect any price resistance to this burger. Everybody can
afford $100." (Sure, everyone named "Burns," that is.) Surprisingly,
that's not even the world's most expensive burger. A restaurant in
(surprise!) New York has a $120 burger, but that's stuffed with short ribs
foie gras, and truffles. By way of comparison, a Big Mac runs $2.59.
Still, it certainly one-ups the Good Morning Burger.

Got to hand it to the owner of that place, he knows the value of good
publicity. 110 hits on Google for "Tri-Beef Burger", and the news has gone
around the world.

I wonder if this creation carries the 'tick' logo of the National Heart
Foundation?

Perhaps, but how does it match up to The Luther?
(A one-pound beef patty, with five slices of bacon, plus cheese and
grilled onions, between two grilled halves of a Krispy Kreme donut.
(The Boondocks (TV series) version implies they use two full donuts,
one on the top and one on the bottom.))
Here's a picture of the "real" Luther:

Ah, so many exotic ways to get mad cow disease or an MI. Although, I am sure
Homer would probably go into convulsions of ecstacy at hearing of such a
thing!

Now are these "steamed hams" by any chance? Even though they are
broiled? Or fried, or whatever! And how is the aurora borealis
involved?

Burns doesn't like ethnic food.
For an even more expensive burger, Fuddrucker's is marketing a 29.6 pound
burger for the Guiness world's record for the largest commercially available
burger. (To qualify, it must be on the menu for 3 months.) It costs $250. I
presume it's at only one location.

From the article: "The biggest challenge is flipping the burger without
breaking it..."
No word as to whether it comes with its own body bag.

While acceptable answers, I was specifically looking for this exchange
between Burns and Smithers from "D'oh! in the Wind" Season 10 Episode 209:
Smithers: Should I send out for some Chinese?
Mr. Burns: No, those people are all gristle.
:-)
Another priceless exchange from the same episode:
Marge: Doctor, will he be all right?
Hibbert: Yes, he was lucky. If that had been a gladiola, he'd be dead right
now.
Bart: Why don't you just pull it out?
Hibbert: (chuckles) I'm a doctor, not a gardener!
Homer: Can't you just prune some of the leaves so I can watch TV?
Hibbert: What did I just say?

Funny, he doesn't look like DeForrest Kelley.

Homer needed "De-forest" Kelley. That would have done it.
