I second this. It can stand up to toppings, remain chewy and soft. Just, yum.

Brioche! Brioche! Brioche!

Nope probably the worst. Brioche is a grease trap and you're making it greasier with butter.

100% team butter bread and more butter

First thing I thought of, too.

People talk shit about brioche, but I can’t find anything else around me that can hold up to the juices from a 70/30 or 80/20 patty even when toasted to almost burnt. Politics aside I can’t get Martin’s rolls shipped and not stale or smashed.

Just tried Arnold brand earlier this week since I refuse to give any more of my money to Martin's, and they're really good. They toasted very well in some beef tallow. Nice to know I have another option.

I've tinkered with baking my own potato buns because of it, and they're good, it's just a lot of work.

What do you mean when you say they contribute to "Insurrection"?

Yep. With Martin's as my go to brand

Absolutely zero sweetness in these. It reminds me of the hamburger buns you get at most good restaurants. Just a good well-made soft hamburger bun

Honestly, these are not particularly sweet. It’s more the texture. They’re even rather low-calorie for a burger bun of this size. Highly recommend (can’t say the same for their hotdog buns, though they are good for a lobster roll).

I had to quit Costco unfortunately. They're just too damn busy. Going to my local Costco (there are two in my metro area) was getting to be worse than going to the DMV. I slum it at Sam's now. It's a shameful existence, but at least I can go to the store and get home with my sanity still intact and most of the hours of the day remaining.

Au contraire, mon ami de Reddit.

Just had one yesterday. Apparently photo comments aren’t allowed on this sub (but gifs are, weirdly). But I have a pack in my fridge right now.

I ate one by itself LOL. Always have one or a bite to make sure they are good

Second this.

Thanks, yeah today was like the fifth time that I made the buns in the last 4 weeks I can’t get enough of it

Thank you

I used a recipe I saw on TikTok

Mix

2 tbsp active yeast

1 cup warm water

3 tbsp sugar

Let sit for ~5-10 mins until foamy

Add

3 tbsp oil

1 tsp salt

1 room temp egg

Mix

Add

3 cups of flour

Knead until smooth. Add more flour if it stays too sticky

Cut into ~8 pieces and form into rolls

Cover with a towel and let raise for 30 mins

Bake @ 425° for 10-15 mins until it looks done

I did these with melted butter brushed on and sesame seeds sprinkled on

Agreed! Took just over an hour maybe? Will definitely be doing that again

Thanks!

I figure between mayo, ketchup, relish or other sauces it should be okay. I used this: https://momsdish.com/homemade-brioche-buns

Side note, I grew up using the fanny farmer cookbook brioche recipe and I find it really tender and flavorful. Might go back to using that

Thanks baby

What is it about the burger that helps determine your bun choice? I always use either potato or brioche, but don't really discriminate based on toppings or anything, just whatever I feel like in the moment.

I would also add Hawaiian Sweet Rolls as well. They are perfect for sliders if used individually. If you group 4 together, it can be used for a regular burger.

Or chibatta

This and only this!
