Tucka Burger har stängt sin verksamhet.

Tucka Burger började servera sina foodtruckburgare i London under 2018, och har på senare tid fått en halvpermanent plats på streetfood-marknaden Dinerama i Shoreditch. Där tillagar de dekadenta och prisvärda burgare (för 5-6 pund, alltså 60-75 kronor) gjorda på hängmörat kött till en hungrig publik. Vi testade dem på matfestivalen Bundance Burger Festival 2019, och deras specialburgare Mark Tuckaburg 2.0 var den solklara festivalvinnaren!

Mark Tuckaburg 2.0 innehöll 50 dagars hängmörat kött, rostat vitlökssmör, baconsylt, ost och majonnäs, serverat i ett stunsigt och supersaftigt sesambröd. Till detta serverades pickles som man själv fick lägga i burgaren. Det var en kladdig pjäs redan innan vi börjat äta, och första tuggan formligen dröp av köttsafter. Detta är inte alltid något positivt, men här fungerade det – mycket tack vare det rejäla brödet och de djupa och intensiva dofterna och smakerna från köttet. Hängmörat kött alltså, vilken grej! Alla de andra ingredienserna bjöd på egna smakexplosioner; baconsylten var härligt sötsalt och osten var perfekt krämig. Majonnäsen i kombination med vitlökssmör gjorde dessutom brödet extra saftigt och smakrikt.

Kort sagt så var det här allt vi var ute efter i en burgare, och Tucka Burger har utmärkt sig som ett av de mest intressanta burgarhaken på Londons streetfoodscen just nu. Vi ser fram emot att följa deras utveckling, och längtar redan tillbaka!

Tucka Burger started serving their foodtruck burgers in London back in 2018, and have recently got a semi-permanent location at the street food market Dinerama in Shoreditch where they cook decadent burgers at an impressive price-point of 5-6 GBP (6-8 USD). We first encountered them at Bundance Burger Festival 2019, and their specialty burger Mark Tuckaburg 2.0 was our definite favourite at the festival!

Mark Tuckaburg 2.0 contained 50 day dry-aged beef, bacon jam, American cheese, mayo and roasted garlic butter in a toasted sesame bun, with a thick-cut pickles buffet on the side. This was already a juicy and gooey little piece of art before we’d started eating, and our first bite oozed of juices. This isn’t always a good thing, but it worked great here – mostly thanks to the absorbing bun and the deep and intense beefiness. Wow, that dry-aged beef really hit the spot! All of the other ingredients added their own punch as well; the bacon jam was intensely sweet and salty and the cheese was super creamy. And the mayo with the roasted garlic butter really lifted the bun, making it extra juicy and flavoursome.

It’s safe to say that this was everything we were looking for in a burger, making Tucka Burger one of the most interesting burger vendors in London right now. We’re really looking forward to following their journey, and we’re already looking forward to our next burger!

🇦🇺 @barlucasydney ★★★☆☆

Bar Luca is a cool and loud bar just a stone’s throw from the Opera House in central Sydney. They have been going viral for a while with one of their campaign burgers, which now has a permanent place on their menu. So when we were there, it was the obvious choice. The burger was called Blame Canada and consisted of a single beef patty, American cheese, maple syrup-glazed bacon, maple syrup aioli, poutine and fries inside the burger. The price was 20 AUD (14 USD).

Our burger still looked pretty good when it arrived, shiny from the maple syrup and with a patty with a decent crust. The beef tasted fine, even if it was a bit burnt in some places and would have benefited from a looser texture. The crown of the bun was a bit squashed, but it still held together surprisingly well and tasted great. The bacon was also unexpectedly crispy, and we liked the nice and flavourful maple syrup glaze. But it was very sweet overall with all the maple syrup, which literally dripped from the burger. This made the whole burger really sticky and quite difficult to handle – even if it also meant that we ate the whole thing at once. The fries that were under the patty itself were very soft and completely lacked crunch, probably because they were steamed by being placed directly in the burger. And we would have really preferred a bit larger cheese curds in the poutine, as the texture was a bit unappealing.

Blame Canada sounded very interesting on paper, and we can see why the burger has gone viral and become so popular. And even if everything was alright, it had too many technical mistakes to become a real favourite. But if you are in the mood for a sweet and sticky burger while listening to some loud music, Bar Luca is there for you.

Royal Stacks is a Melbourne-based burger chain that was founded in 2016 after their founder Dani travelled to the US and got a healthy dose of inspiration. They are still expanding, and currently have more than 10 restaurants that are decorated with plenty of well-known pop culture references. The five beef burgers on the menu are clearly inspired by Shake Shack, but with a slightly cooler attitude. We ordered a Bacon Bacon; a double burger with cheese, caramelised onions, double bacon, pickles, ketchup and mustard for 23 AUD (16.5 USD).

Our burger looked good, but we were a bit worried about the large amount of ketchup that was piled on top of the bacon. Fortunately, we were pleasantly surprised by how well the ketchup tied the flavours together, and the sweetness and intense tomato flavour really made their mark here. The beef patties were tender, tasty and well-seasoned, but the bun was a bit too soft and should have been toasted a lot more. Fortunately, it held everything together well, so it wasn’t a big problem. On the ingredients front, the cheese provided a welcome creaminess, and we also liked the strong dill flavour of the pickles – although we would have preferred them to be thicker sliced and to have had more of them. They were already gone halfway through the burger. The bacon was a bit too soft and would have benefited from being crisper, but despite the slightly pale appearance, it was cooked pretty well. The caramelised onions were also a bit too soft, and we would have preferred raw onions here for a more interesting texture. Overall, the burger had well-balanced proportions, although everything was a bit softer than we would have liked.

Royal Stacks is a nice Australian fast casual chain that serves well made and affordable burgers in a cool environment. They are definitely worth checking out the next time you’re in Melbourne.
