We needed to try The Canucken before Burger Hounds changes up their menu in December. With The Canuck being our all-time favourite burger, we knew we would enjoy this bad boy! The chicken was thick, juicy and tender, the cheese and aioli were well balanced, and the poutine was deliciously sweet, crispy and gooey at the same time. This burger was loaded with that mouth-watering maple bacon jam, but was unfortunately missing gravy which made it a tad too sweet! A little less maple syrup and a nice slathering of gravy and it would be right up there at first place with The Canuck. Two absolutely cracker burgers. Thank you Burger Hounds! 😍

We needed to go back and have one last glorious Canuck before Burger Hounds changes up their menu in December. After a long, unsuccessful hunt to find a better burger, we can now confirm that The Canuck reigns champion in our burger books. The beef patty was thick, juicy and perfectly cooked as always, the cheese and aioli were well balanced, and the poutine was deliciously crispy and gooey at the same time. Rounding it all off, the generous spread of sweet, sweet maple bacon jam was absolutely to-die-for! We can’t fault it. No burger can beat it. We ❤️ you Canuck.

Huge credit to the super friendly staff who were kind enough to let us add a smashed beef Patty and cheese to our burger, to make up for the missing bacon and spicy honey on our last burger visit. The fried chicken was super crispy and perfectly cooked, although the breast was a little thin compared to the batter. The bun was soft and fluffy, and the smashed beef Patty was juicy and tasty. The slaw and pickled radish added freshness, and there was a generous slathering of sriracha Mayo to balance the burger out with some delicious heat.

Pulled beef/pork/chicken is our favourite thing on a burger, and we go nuts for waffle fries, so we weren’t missing out on this special. The smashed beef patty was perfectly cooked and paired deliciously with the generous serve of pulled beef. The bun was soft and fluffy, and the waffle fries were crispy and tasty. The smashed avocado, salsa and sour cream provided a cooling freshness, and the jalapeños added a pleasantly unexpected sweetness! From the first bite we were in heaven - think it may even be on par with our favourite burger (The Canuck from Burger Hounds), equally achieving the perfect sweet & salty balance.

I’m weak AF with heat, so this burger was alllll Tara’s! The smashed patties were juicy and cheesy (thank you double cheese), and the bun was soft and fluffy. The bacon and jalapeño poppers were nice and crispy, and the poppers had an intense kick. Unfortunately, the jalapeño and tequila relish was quite overpowering (which I also remember it being on the Brades Fantasy Factory burger we’ve had previously), making the already minuscule amount of BBQ sauce taste non-existent. Overall, a decent burger, but it could have done with half the amount of relish and double the BBQ sauce.

We’ve both had $10 app sign up credit sitting there for a while now, so we finally decided to cash it in. So we don’t normally go plant-based, but this was surprisingly tasty - it really did taste like BBQ Pulled Pork! The brioche bun was soft and fluffy, and the slightly sweet and crispy slaw worked great with the peri peri sauce and aoili to make a simple but well balanced burger. We also tried the plant-based BBQ Chicken Strips, which looked a bit off-putting (like strange little sausages), but were also super tasty with the hickory BBQ marinade and when dipped in the aioli. Overall, not a bad meal for $13 & $10 (so $3 using our 2x $10 app credit)!

I’ve been dying to head back to Brades to use my $15 App sign up credit, so when a bonus $5 credit for the Public Holiday popped up - I was there! I also have a tub of Biscoff spread at home that I’ve been keen to try on a burger, so today was the day. I went for the Classic Cheese and added a Southern Fried Chicken Breast, Lettuce and Tomato, then spread my Biscoff on the chicken. Damn was I happy with my choice! As usual, the beef and chicken were perfectly cooked, succulent and crispy. The milk bun was soft and fluffy. There was plenty of delicious oozy house sauce and cheese, and the lettuce, tomato, pickles and onion added that freshness that I love! Now for the Biscoff. I tried a few bites without it first, just for comparison, and tasted a slight bit of heat from the house sauce. So when I added the Biscoff, my godddd - the combo was delicious!! I don’t know what I would do to improve the burger, but it still doesn’t quite match The Canuck, so I couldn’t give it more than 4.7. One of the best $0 I ever spent! I’d definitely try it again and will continue to experiment with Biscoff on my burgers.

The final of my Canadian TopDeck burgers. The toasted brioche bun was the highlight of this burger, being super soft and fluffy. The beef was also well cooked, and the tomato, onions and lettuce were fresh. The house burger sauce had great flavour, however the chips were pretty average. Not a bad burger overall, but I expected a bit more for $19 USD.
