Lockdown Cook Along 6.0 🍔 There’s no way I could resist this team up between two of my favourite burger joints and their signature burgers! Starting with The Americana - the beef patty and brisket were flavourful and tender, pairing perfectly with the cheese, onions and mustard Mayo. I toasted the pillowy soft @urbunbakery buns to round the burger off nicely. Now for the Blame Canada - my fave burger from @blburgers so I was super keen to recreate it, and it did NOT disappoint! I’m a sucker for sweet and savoury, so the delicious beef, cheese and poutine combined with the maple aioli and maple glazed bacon was an absolute match made in heaven! I air-fried the generous portion of chips to crispy perfection, and was drooling over them with @blburgers’ signature seasoning! This was a winner! 🏆

I haven’t had KFC since I was about 10, so after seeing some recent praise I thought it was about time to give it another shot! I went big with the Triple Stacker Burger and holy shit, it was the best fast food chain burger I’ve ever had! The chicken was surprisingly thick and crispy, and the sauce and relish matched each other perfectly to add a little sweet heat! Sadly, this National bacon day, they forgot my bacon, so I added a few crispy strips of my own. I also added some BBQ sauce which rounded off the burger nicely! I also grabbed some of their $2 large chips with extra salt, which weren’t the crispiest but the seasoning was next level, so they’ve also taken out best fast food chain chips! I may need to hit up KFC more often… 🐓

For this special, Suzie Dukes Burger + Grill (North Rocks) usual awesome beef smash was topped with tender, flavourful slow cooked birria beef, coriander & onion. It came with a side of consommé, which holy shit balls was the BEST I’ve ever had! I literally drank it afterwards. The crispy cheese disc softened with the consommé pour, adding a delicious, gooey cheesiness, and the chipotle Mayo rounded this burger/taco fusion off perfectly! I smashed it in less than 2mins and headed straight back in for another one. No way I could resist for only $15!

*Custom Cinnamon Donut Burger* I had to try one of Suzie Duke’s fresh, hot cinnamon donuts, and pimped it up with a slab of fried chicken, crispy bacon and melted Biscoff! The donut was super soft and fluffy, with a nice crisp exterior. The burger ended up a bit dry, so I quickly fixed it up with a big ol’ scoop of icecream!

*Double Lockdown* With how 🔥 Suzie Duke’s fried chicken is, I knew I had to jump on this special! I’m also obsessed with their Duke burger, so had to add a beef smash and swapped the BBQ sauce for Duke sauce. As always, the chicken was generous and crispy AF with that classic cornflake-like crunch! It was packed with delicious bacon, and rounded off nicely by the beef and Duke sauce. I just would have loved slightly thicker chicken and more Duke sauce!

After trying this beauty a few months ago and absolutely LOVING it, I decided to go back and try it with a cinnamon scroll for added sweetness! As per the first time, the chicken was insane! Juicy and crispy AF with good heat, which was well balanced by the kewpie mayo and pickles. The bun is where shit got real. The best cinnamon scroll I’ve ever had - light and fluffy as anything, with the PERFECT amount of glaze and cinnamon. A little of the Redfern heat was lost with the extra sweetness, but 20/10 would smash again! 👊🏼

*Dip Dip Hooray* I’ve been dying to try a soup-dipped burger, so I jumped in on this special to warm my belly on a cold Winter’s day. The roast beef was tender and there was a great hit of flavour from the herbed Mayo and French onion soup! However, the burger arrived slightly cold and I would have loved a bit more roast beef on it.
