    It's a given that a batter-sausage is the pinacle of deep fat fried food, but there's their ugly bastard cousin always sitting there next to them on the counter. I never see anyone order them, outside of drunk students pretending to be scangers to their mates for a laugh and yet they must sell because they're always available.

    Or a spice burger, come to think of it.

    I never had one until the age of about 16 and i was pretty suprised by how tasty it was but i dont often get it because you can kind of feel it doing you bad . My local chipper sell batter burgers in a bun and the are tasty

    Had a battered mars bar alright!

    So gooey


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,129 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    Yes - love them - also love wurly burgers which is a battered burger in a bun like a normal burger - Heart stop stuff -


    Also spice burgers are horrible and should only be fed to the homeless!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,916 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    Spice burgers are the real deal.

    These burgers are the best though:

    Ive never had a spice burger , ive heard they're nice . What did you think?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,433 ✭✭✭✭Mr Benevolent


    Haven't had one in years. I could feel my arteries hardening when I ate one. So no, I hate 'em.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭Kinetic^


    Yes.

    Also, whirley burger ftw!!!! (batter burger in a bun with lettuce, onion & sauces)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 476 ✭✭bc dub


    heard a few different names for this one but who'll hold their hand up for a whirly burger.

    a batter burger, in a bun, with cheese and everything on it.

    edit: ^ha, I'll raise you cheese!!

    Never heard that name for it but i have had in and tis nice , its just called a batter burger in a bun where im from.

    Also i heard boys talking a bungo in a thread i started last week which i thought was dublin slang for a burger but apparently it is a separate item. Ive never heard of anyone getting one . Can someone explain what it is?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 476 ✭✭bc dub


    ah same here, it was the long description. but I've since seen it on 'some' menus as whirly!

    • Batterburgers - heart-attack
    • Spiceburgers - healthy yummy vegetarian option (except for the beef)
    • Battered Mars bar - stay in Scotland with nasty stuff like Haggis and Iron Bru.

    This needs a poll.

    I have never tasted one - so can't say if I like them. They sound pretty grostesque though.

    never had a batterburger? after a night on the batter, it's hard to beat the batterburger!

    Tried a bastard burger many years ago. Took a bite & automatically puked it into the bin along with the remainder of it. YEEEEUUUUKK!!!!

    Batter burger - forkin ratten
    Batter sausage - actually quite nice with a drop of ketchup.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭Mits


    I like battered burgers but I prefer spice burger smoothered in salt and vinager


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 75 ✭✭legallyblonde86


    They look like hardened cow poo that have been out in the sun for weeks... so no, i haven't eaten one yet... and probably never will!

    It's a guilty secret pleasure of mine.:D

    Whilst out with friends trying to obtain sustenance from a rocket and feta salad with seared flakes of asparagus, I yearn for a dirty great batterburger...yum!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,791 ✭✭✭up for anything


    I love them but the trick is to eat them quickly without looking at the 'meat'. Keep your attention on the golden batter outside.

    I seem to "think" I like them when I smell them in the chipper. But they just never taste as I imagine they should.
    They are a tease.
