It’s Sunday Morning, and that can only mean one thing: last night, I made and ate a hamburger. Specifically, a burger featured on the hit series Bob’s Burgers.
The Plymouth Roquefort Burger [S3:E5 “An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal”]
About the Episode
When Mr. Fishoeder asks to “borrow” Bob’s family for Thanksgiving in order to impress a woman in exchange for several months’ rent, awkward hotel hilarity ensues.
About the Burger
This was a turkey burger mixed with finely chopped green apple and yellow onion, topped with cranberries and a cranberry reduction and Roquefort cheese, and served with sweet potato fries.
The Response
I’ve never met a cheese I didn’t like.
Until now.
This burger may have been good, but the Roquefort overpowered everything. Even scraping it off and cutting the bread where the two had touched didn’t help matters.
I usually like bleu cheeses, and there was an earlier burger we did that tasted just fine, but this one was downright awful.
We’re hesitant to try it again, even with a different cheese.
We give this burger
0 Stars
Only because we can’t give it a negative rating.
On the plus side, I’m getting really good at making reductions.
Come back next week, when we’ll try a new, as-yet-to-be-determined burger!

I don’t like any bleu cheese. But the mix sounds good with a nice extra sharp cheddar. Maybe. I’ve never had fruit on a burger. But I love Thanksgiving sandwiches, with the turkey and the cranberries.

That actually looks delicious… I am sorry you didn’t like the cheese, but I understand the bleu cheeses are a pungent group.

It really did look good and I wanted it to taste just as good, but, sadly, it just wasn’t us.

Usually I like anything with cranberries. Guess I’ll have to reconsider.

Hmmm? Maybe with Feta?
(I’ll just stay with the basic or hickory burger)
