Brioche buns for burgers

Some of us do like sweet with savoury - just not these buns with burgers!

And those of us who normally make our own burgers also know what's in them!

Just an aside - as several people assume both burgers and buns are bought in or eaten out.

Thank you.

I like them they make a nice change from the usual boring buns !!

I enjoy a brioche bun with a burger

Both myself & youngest son love a brioche burger bun but other son wont have them, so i always have to buy 2 different lots of buns with our burgers🙄

I rather like them.

Dreadful with burgers but nice for bread and butter pudding!

Oh yes! Bread and butter pudding!
Yum

Absolutely agree with you OP, I don’t order burger if it’s in brioche

I like bacon in a brioche roll

I think the biggest reason is the very long date on brioche rolls. They get used before they go stale so it saves waste.
Check the dates next time you're on the supermarket. A good 3 weeks on them.

3 weeks?!! What? More like 3 days, unless those supermarket ones are full of preservatives? Due to the very high egg content, I wouldn't be happy keeping them any more than 5 days maximum.

I was in trendy foodie town Padstow this weekend, and there were definitely brioche bun burgers everywhere, with fish in too.

Love a brioche bin with a burger, soft and fluffy, lush.

I agree- they are used because they have a longer shelf life and are therefore cheaper.

It is the saame with any longer life bread- usually has higher sugar content.

I don't eat burgers that often. When I do the brioche annoys me because I doubt I'm getting value for money.

No burger baps ? Let them eat brioche!
Just makes me think of Marie Antoinette!
Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche", said to have been spoken in the 18th century by Queen Marie Antoinette upon being told that the peasants had no bread. The French phrase mentions brioche, a bread enriched with butter and eggs, considered a luxury food.

The last time I went to a burger place I asked if I could have my burger in a non brioche bun as I don’t like brioche and they were happy to oblige.

Ah, the French connection ..... if I remember, brioches originate from Normandy because that's where the best butter is made. And I'm sure I've seen recipes for brioche au brie though the two words aren't linked. 🇫🇷 🧈

I think gravy on chips is disgusting but haven't felt the need to tell the world until reading this comment.

Chips with gravy reminds me of Canadian poutine .
It's wonderful on a cold day when you've been outside !

I'd never heard of poutine so I looked it up on Wikipedia. 0h, Yeuk. I won't be trying that any time soon.

Brioche and sourdough everywhere now, how sad, I'm of the same opinion, they aren't right with meat or sandwiches

No brioche burger buns for either of us thanks, we get lovely soft rolls freshly baked from the village.

I like brioche and sourdough. Also like most of the bread we have had while abroad which is generally more dense.
We all know that our soft white sliced bread while ok, is nutrionally poor but I heard this week that they are trying to improve the quality of sliced white while retaining the things about it which we do like. 👍
