Nine-Decker Burger (aka The Millennium Dome Burger)



OK, we've all made an eight-level burger before, right?  They're soooo last week, darling.  Sam and Dad decided to push the envelope just a little more, and Sam said "Let's do nine".....so we did.  The burger shown above is NOT the nine-decker burger, obviously, it's Dad's double cheese bacon beefburger, made at the same time....looks good eh?



Constructing a nine-decker is not a simple thing to do.  You need a big pan to cook the burgers, and you need to plan everything before you start work.  If you're using bacon, for example, have it cooked to your requirements beforehand.  Sauces and pickles should be on hand.



Skewers are essential when your burger will be taller than it is wide.



Add ketchup between levels as you build, and any other bits and pieces you fancy (gherkins can be seen atop Dad's burger, in the background)....



Finally add your fries and chicken nuggets and you have something waaaay better than a MacDaniels or a Burger Prince, for a quarter the price and ten times the fun.  And the skewers sticking out of the bun look like the Millennium Dome!  It's a win, win, win situation!
