i am a basic bitch so i don't need a lot of fancy stuff on it. if you get the base concept of the burger right, you don't need much of anything else in my imo, so, from bottom to top:

• toasted regular bread bun (NOT brioche because it turns to slop as soon as any juice comes out of the burger and i can't stand that all burgers at restaurants are on brioche buns)
• a 1/3 pounder burger because i'm a big [$UNDEFINED] and can handle it (or two smaller ones for a double stack), charred on the outside
• streaky bacon thats right on the edge of incinerated
• cheese of any sort that melts good, preferably both sides of the burger
• "burger sauce" although i will accept plain jane ketchup and mustard
• onion rings
• the other half of the bread

no lettuce or tomato or any of that nonsense. crispy fried onion is the only vegetable it needs. i will however go on record in saying that burgers should be made wider, and not taller, because i don't want to unhinge my jaw like a snake or tamp the thing down like i'm preparing a base for paving slabs. i'll eat a burger with a knife and fork before i debase myself trying to fit a burger piled high and made for instagram influencers in my trap
