My arteries just contracted shut the moment I saw that. Still, it looks damn tasty! I bet that'd wash down nice with a chocolate milkshake!

[Guest]

[edit] Origins
According to legend, the burger was named for and was a favorite (and possibly invention) of singer-songwriter and record producer Luther Vandross.[1] This origin is mentioned in a January 2006 episode of animated series The Boondocks, "The Itis", in which the character Granddad creates an entire restaurant based on the burger (and other soul food).[2]

[edit] Marketed products
Mulligan's, a suburban bar in Decatur, Georgia, serves the Luther Burger in addition to their "hamdog", a hotdog which is wrapped in a beef patty and deep-fried.[1]

The Gateway Grizzlies of St. Louis, from the Frontier League (an independent baseball league not affiliated with Major or Minor League Baseball), have started serving the Luther Burger, which, in their version, is a deep-fried Krispy Kreme donut filled with a black Angus all-beef patty, melted cheese, and two strips of bacon. Dubbed a cardiologist's worst nightmare, this burger is 1,000 calories, and aside from bringing in revenue from sales, it has drawn more fans to come out to the ballpark: apparently, attendance at games has increased and the burger is one of the most popular aspects of the park. The burger has met with criticism from burger purists and from people who are turned off by the thought of the taste and the health implications.

The Luther Burger...I'm getting fat just looking at the picture.

I don't know if I can handle this thread. I could deal with the FKC Sandwich, and the Luther...... That one was pretty rough to wrap my head around. Now DEEP FRIED Twinkies. I am going to lose all self control and start frying them in mass quantity unless you guys stop corrupting me like this. :?

deep fired ice cream:

nothing wrong with deep frying random food items, just let me cross a few off your list that i have tried and do not work out so well:

• Mac and Cheese burritos[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
• ham sandwiches[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
• turkey sandwiches[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
• balls of rice pilaf[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]
• Snickers bars (they do sell these at fairs and such but i have yet to make it work and not be a chocolatey mess)[/*:m:q3k5gq2n]

now something that does work and is quite easy:

String cheese, chilled, rolled in egg then Italian bread crumbs. Coat 3 times, deep fry until golden brown and shazaam! giant mozzarella sticks :mrgreen:

did you try freezing them?

[MaximusR3]

i actually did try freezing once....and forgot it in there for about a week :oops:

That may have made it work right but i guess i lost my drive after forgetting about it for so long lol

[saviger]

got me goin on this max. Just got back from gas station around the corner, got 4 snickers in the freezer right now.

[MaximusR3]

lol nice. I've had the ones at the fair and they are indeed deliciously fattening, let us know how it works out

[saviger]

if it doesnt work, its your fault. All the blame will be on YOU

[MaximusR3]

very well, i will take the blame of your potential chocolaty disaster

[Guest]

deep fired ice cream:

OMG that looks good. That's one of my favorite desserts...

[saviger]

IT WORKED! It worked great!! yummmmm

I used funnel cake batter, and egg as well. The chocolate did melt during the frying process, but was contained in the yummy batter. You guys gotta try this, it is delicious.
