Shuley Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Relatively recently I went to a restaurant that was supposed to be NZ food. I got a lamb burger that had beet root on it, so I was very excited to try that. The question I had is what is the "typical" way that beets are served on burgers? Canned, roasted, fresh... Although I can't imagine fresh? I was slightly disappointed because I liked the combo and there were just teeny slivers of beet. However, they were extremely generous with the mint jelly..... Which is gross. Anyway I am looking forward to having beets on my burgers at home and was just wondering what the most typical route is? I think it's a fabulous combination. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Shuley, we always typically get beetroot slices out of a can in burgers here.Usually it’s a burger with the lot which includes beet and eggSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ora Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 You can cook your own fresh beet root .but I usually just buy the canned sliced ones tastes great Outback kamado Bar and Grill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tangles Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Haha true. But I would take canned beetroot in a burger over vegemite any day. I hope they don’t push me out of the country for saying that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonFire Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) What?... no love for Vegemite, i grew up on it. Here's how i loved it in the morning: on toast with butter, cut in half...wait for it, then i would dunk it in my coffee+milk, don't knock it till you try it Sorry OP, beetroot slices out of the can man here as well...while i'm at it try a slice of beet with your next tuna sandwich Edited April 16, 2018 by BonFire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
