    Folks- I made the trip to Krispy Kreme last night and I am sad to report that there is no Krispy Kreme Burger...at least not at the stores around here. Didn't see it on the menu, and the guy at the register gave me that "whats-this-guy-smoking" look when I asked about it.
    I was kinda bummed. Those pictures Scriv posted got me excited to try one!!!
    Just a reminder that Krispy Kreme did not originate the burger, rather, it became a participant in the burger's creation:

    BTW, hey Scriv, you forgot the bacon!

    ... and what may be the original, the Luther Burger.

    Not being a person who enjoys sweet with savory it's doubtful I'll make such stuff at home, but I sure did enjoy Sudoku-san's storytelling and food pr0n shots. (typo intentional)

      Sensei Scrivener, that was a fun read in an "Oh man, I can't believe you did that!" kinda' way. Great photos too!

      What you gonna' name them? "Liliha Burger"? "Palama Heights' Burger Madness"? Eh, 'das Hawaii's own! Krispy who?

      I can see the ketchup and mustard example of your donut burgers not working. Likely those condiments are too acidic and spicey to agree with the sweet glaze on the donut. I am a bit surprised the example sans the K & M didn't fare much better. This may prove that beef, unlike pork, is less agreeable with sweet.

      For the burger patty, maybe you had too much going on as well. Perhaps simply salt 'n pep'.

      Knowing how well hot dogs agree with somewhat-sweet Andagi, I would have expected they'd also work in the sweeter glazed-sugar twists you tried. How about them "custardless" long johns? No way with the custard in it! Or way?

      What if you had lightly seared the doughnut halves on both sides to caramelize the glaze? Just like properly done Teriyaki, that may have made all the difference, helping to provide an element of "earthiness" (burnt sugar) to the doughnut that would match the beef patty. Whoah, this is deep. lol.

      According to these guys (scroll way down), the Luther Burger is basically a converted bacon cheeseburger.

      When you reached a point that you were sick of food already might also have been a factor.

      Your impression could've been much different had someone made it for you, vs. you making it and sampling it yourself. I had the same issue when doing the andadogs. Just like any cooking that I do for guests or family, I eventually go into sensory overload, and end up losing my appetite in the process.

      The Reisling must've provided a good calm before and after the gastronomical storm!

      From here on I'll never walk into a bakery and look at a pastry the same. Napple Burger? Leonard's Malasada Burger? Komoda Butter Roll Burger? Oh the possibilities.

      Thanks again Scriv'.. that was a fun one! I wish you well in recovery. Drink lots of hot tea.

        That's what they do with their leftover ground beef.
