As you can see from the above, three of the five finalists featured a build using Texas Toast as the buns.
How many light-years do you think it will take for us to see this in the UK? And would you like to see it in this country?
Are you travelling to Texas soon? Would you be interested in sampling the Lone Star Stack?
Would you like to see the My Burger competition return to the UK?

It sounded great until it got to the BBQ sauce. Just because it has BBQ sauce doesn’t make it Texan.
Most of us Texans do enjoy a decent barbeque sauce, but if you don’t want it, I assume you can just tell them to leave it off? Then if you make your own sauce (as many of us do), you can add it yourself.
Basically a riff on a patty melt. Nothing new or special.

Love the masculinity! I thought this burger tasted great! When they served it to me, the fries were just a liiiiiittle bit burned, which actually made the whole thing taste much better. It’s nice and spicy, it ain’t so much like the other ones that taste more zesty and peachy (which are good) but rather is nice and strong and is more spicy and warm. I would loooove to eat this again. lol.
