Cheftimony Snack - Just what makes a great burger?
Today’s snack-sized episode answers a seemingly simple question: “Just what goes into making a great burger?”
That question was inspired by my visit last week to Vancouver’s Monarch Burger, a restaurant that carries on the delicious tradition of Chef Robert Belcham’s iconic Dirty Burger. That burger, a deceptively-small package built around a four-ounce patty of glorious brisket and chuck, packs a serious culinary punch.
Long-time listeners will remember that Robert, who was the second chef in Vancouver to welcome me into his restaurants as a stagiaire, joined me on Episode 016 of Cheftimony for a great chat about his career, his restaurants, and some fantastic cooking tips. It was a delight to have Robert back on the show today, and to get the burger goods straight from the source.
So, if you’ve been wondering how to improve your burger, or simply where to find a fantastic one in Vancouver, we’ve got you covered. Join us for the snack!
