The ultimate burger collection

While we’re undoubtedly spoiled for choice when it comes to great burger spots, perfecting a couple of favourite recipes (dirty bird, anyone?) means you can whip up a burger any time a craving calls. Take your pick from classic cheeseburgers, slow-cooked brisket and slaw, fish burgers or a Korean fried chicken burger. Watch out for that spice.
