A comparative taste test evaluated the 10-minute burger recipes of celebrity chefs Guy Fieri and Gordon Ramsay. The reviewer found Fieri's approach to be more straightforward, utilizing common ingredients such as ground beef, American cheese, brioche buns, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. Fieri's technique involves high heat, smashing the patties thin, and a steaming method for melting the cheese. The resulting burger was lauded for its juiciness, crispiness, and overall flavor, even without additional condiments.
Gordon Ramsay's recipe, from his "Ramsay in 10" cookbook, incorporated a wider array of ingredients, including cheddar cheese, egg yolks, a frozen grated chile, bacon, Little Gem lettuce, mayonnaise, and Sriracha, along with a distinct Sriracha mayonnaise sauce.
