Started making the buns for tomorrows “Monster Burger” evening in Limpsfield. This is a milk and butter bun – which has the strength to hold our freshly minced 1/2 pound piece of ground beef (Skirt, Brisket, Chuck) – along with the cheddar cheese and bacon.

We spent two years trying to find a commercial burger bun that didn’t fall apart under the dual assault of moisture and heat. In the end we had to make our own. By adding full cream milk and butter to the recipe, the bun is crispier and stronger.
