The Perfect Burger

i've found the best burgers are the one's you do yourself on the bbq.
i think possibly mine would be and double lamb and mint burger with bacon strips and bbq sauce on a freshly baked crusty roll, maybe with some sesame seeds on top.

Can't argue that. I usually dress my burgers in ketchup, onion, and dill pickle slices. For some reason, I usually don't add mustard to burgers, but I do almost always on hot dogs.
Edit: I forgot the drink! Sprite or 7Up sounds good. Usually some kind of potato on the side and possibly a salad or if in season, corn on the cob barbecued.
Ground angus beef seasoned on a wood fire with garlic salt
NYC hard roll, toasted on the same wood fire
sharp cheddar cheese
sliced onion
tomato slice (a nice red tomato, not a green or hard white one like at Burger King)
lettuce
ketchup
black pepper
Pickles on the side.
No Mayo, No mustard, bacon not needed if the beef is good
I hate places that serve a burger with mustard and mayo applied without being ordered

Ground elk burgers, greenleaf lettuce, red onion, a slice of cheddar and a slice of hothouse tomato all on a toasted kaiser roll. Wash it down with a Shiner or a REAL Dr Pepper.
BBQ's beef patty, bacon strips, lettuce, red onion, a tiny ammount of jalapenos, guacamole, a hint of barbecue sauce and dijon mustard.
Wash it down with an ice cold Coke.

seasoned with sea salt and garlic cooked blue, with bacon (not crispy), pickles, and cheese on a whole grain and honey bagel.
I'd go with charcoal barbecued steak burgers, with cheddar cheese, bacon, onion, a fried egg, coleslaw, maybe some letuce. On a large crispy bun with some tomato sauce. Some home made fries and your favourite beer or maybe coke.

The Smokey Valley Burger in Olive Hill KY. With Egg on it. and Bacon. Its like, Breakfast and Dinner, all on one sandwich.
I've heard a lot of wess coass guys say that they'd die by thin, slider-style burgers. While those tiny burg's you get from In and Out, Fat Burger, and Carney's et al are all good, there's nothin like a tasty 3/4 lb. done medium, and are pure heaven. You gotta make sure you've got a bunch of Heinz 57 to dip it in, as well. Hunts doesn't cut it. Period.
It's not the perfect burger (I've not found that yet), but it's damn good. You can get them from the Scotch Corner Sandwich Shop in Newcastle's Grainger Market. They're the 1/2lb Steak Burgers they sell. Grill-cooked and then fry finished, stuck in a fresh bun with lightly fried onions and mushrooms and your choice of sauce. Try a sweeter sauce like ketchup, to balance the sharpness of the onions (because they're not overcooked they are still pungent).
Grab a can of Lucozade from the shop across the aisle, walk to Eldon Square shopping center, park your backside and eat.

My favorite restaurant burger is at The Vortex in Atlanta. They have two dozen or so options for toppings, but I dig their plain 'ol bacon cheeseburger.
If I'm making one at home, I like it medium to medium-well with blue cheese, bacon, onions, lettuce, and a dab of mayo and spicy mustard.

BBQ at home.
Either Aberdeen Angus or Venison.
Lightly toasted bun.
Melted cheese slices on both halves of the bun.
Little bit of lettuce in there.
Perfect
Wash it down with some chilled Irn Bru or Sprite.

As far as burgers you can get out somewhere:
Red Robin - Royal Red Robin Burger (it's the one with the egg on it, and it is fantastic!!!)
Chili's does a decent burger.
Fudruckers burgers are pretty good.
I agree about the house burger, though.
I start with the antibiotic/steroid free beef that we buy and have processed from a local farmer. I put a sprinkle of the KC Masterpiece BBQ dry seasoning on it, and grill it over smokin' hot coals.
On the back end, I will sometimes put some Bacon. Also, a couple of pickle slices and some mayo with some black pepper cracked in it. I don't think a burger that is done correctly ever needs ketchup.
I get the rolls from a local bakery and they are very soft and tasty.
I think an ice-cold Coke is about the best drink with a burger.
