To think brioche bread does not go with burgers

[JustCallMeSliths]

It's sweet. It's like having your burger in a Belgium bun.

I would normally agree, only exception being Morrisons beetroot brioche buns. I don't think they are a true brioche but they are absolutely the best burger buns.

Oh yes love it. I'd usually have a naked burger as I eat low carb, but if I'm going to have a burger in a bun, then it's got to be brioche. Totally worth it.

I don't think brioche burger buns are the same as the brioche that you eat for breakfast - much, much less sweet.

I like them well enough, and I think they are lighter and less stodgy than regular burger buns, leading to a better burger to bread ratio.

Burger, brioche bun, strong blue cheese, caramelised onion relish of some kind, little gem lettuce. Sweet and savoury sensation. Yum.

I agree, brioches' should just get the flip away from my burger.

Also....Croissants with cheese in the middle...WTAF

Yanbu

But then I dont get the brioche craze at all.

Overly sweet , plasticy/processed tasting nonsense.

Id rather go without all together

Brioche buns are so good. Pretzel buns however 🤢

An Aldi brioche bun is lovely with a burger. You lot are missing out on a thing of beauty!

I don;t get the obsession with them, they're way too sweet! Definitely wrong with burgers.
They're usually full of egg too which I can't eat due to allergies/intolerances so get highly pissed off when I fancy a burger and the damn things only come in bloody brioche!
lol

I thought the same until I accidentally tried, I'm never going back!!! It was the Aldi ones.

They are horrible with burgers. Too sweet, and they fall apart, just no!

YANBU. They’re vile.

Yes. Yes. YES. Thank goodness someone else said so. I’ve been saying this for years.

What is wrong with combining sweet with salty/ savoury? Makes a brilliant flavour contrast!

Other examples:
Pancakes with bacon and maple syrup
Roast Turkey with cranberry sauce
Roast pork with apple sauce
Roast duck with plum sauce
Burgers with tomato ketchup up... or any chutney!
Mozzarella with Parma ham and figs
Cheddar and chutney
Stilton and pear
Roasted Mediterranean veg with fish

I could go on and on and on.

Brioche buns aren't mega sweet anyway. They're very light and rich. They're not the same as brioche with chocolate or icing on!

Agree, it’s bloody awful. Classic sesame seed bun for me

totall agree

You're clearly not having the right sauces or toppings to complement that burger...

Brioche bacon rolls are surprisingly nice though ....

I like it, but I like combinations of sweet and savoury like brie and cranberry sauce or pork and apple.

Totally agree. If I fancy a burger out now I have to check it's not a brioche bun before ordering.

Even worse witn hot dogs.

Brioche bread does not go with anything. Not even itself. Bleurgh!

I buy these, my family like them. And they make really pretty plate. I agree though I wouldn’t eat one, but I wouldn’t eat a burger either.

The following rules apply;

Belgian bun, raisins, icing and cherry - OK

Brioche bun with a lamb burger - OK

Brioche bun with a beef burger - not OK

How can you say that?!

How about chicken waffles and maple syrup then? I feel that chicken is not a meat that lends itself well to the savoury/sweet combos.

I love brioche burger buns, therefore you are wrong. Sorry.
