I like both but I prefer Home-made burgers better because I can make it just the way I like it. I love to add thousand island dressing to my burgers, it gives it the finishing touch.

I love the home cooked burgers because you can adjust it to your taste and decrease the amount of grease.

Unfortunately I love the way fast food tasted as opposed to food that I make myself, which often tastes like gruel with grease on it. D: However, fast food is by no means healthy. *shrug* depends on your lifestyle I suppose.

I cook my burgers on the george foreman grill. It drains alot of the grease but still keeps it juicy. Delicious!

I love to get burgers out in casual restaurants like red robin and TGI Fridays. Chili's is good too. I love how they put different toppings on them. Sometimes I want a jalepeno burger and sometimes a bacon cheese burger. I just love burgers.

My uncle makes deer burgers and he said that its really good. He mixes it with ground beef. I never tried any and I dont know if I want to try it. For now I'll just stick with the traditional burger.

Me too! I would prefer to make my own burger because I can put it whatever manner I want it to be. I like to put black pepper sauce over my burger, layer it with extra cheese, no tomato ketchup, a lot of mayo, moderate tomato slices and a lot of salad. However, sometimes I also like eating out at burger restaurants whenever I feel like eating specific menu that I do not know how to prepare. I like McDonald's especially the Big Mac and also Fillet O' Fish.

Eating home-made burgers is a lot more healthier than eating fast food burger. The reason is, due to the large volume of burgers being made (coooked), sometimes the oil is not well replenished to fresh ones. The result, the over-used can give undetermined health risks to consumers. With home-made burgers, you are the cook, and you're in control of what you make and what you eat.

I love Fast Food Burgers and I do have my Home Cooked Made Burger recipe and I think my home cooked burger is satisfying but it may give me more expenses so I'd choose the Fast Food Burger...thrift wise...lol

Hi, I love to eat burger. Once a while I will made home cooked burger for my family. The ingredients needed are available in the supermarket. Pretty simple to cook!! Normally I will buy the chicken patty from the supermarket with cucumber and tomatoes. I do add fried egg on top of the chicken patty. It taste superb. For my son, he does not like to eat chicken patty,therefore I made for him egg burger. Once a while, my husband will buy MacDonalds back home too for us to enjoy. Especially when there is certain promotion tight up with Macdonalds,we like to collect the souvenirs given.

I make burgers at home sometimes but the taste is not really the same with the ones they have at fast food restaurants. The only advantage of making your own burger, is you can have any condiments you like without paying extra. You can have bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese and unlimited mustard and catsup.

you're definately right. My Japanese wife cooks it with certain Japanese spices. Burgers are popular over here. Then I add my own dressing , veg etc. Nothing beats that. But I understand how some people say they are satisfied with a bit of grease and fat from the shop.
