Burger Review #9 – Double Royal

Nothing like an upscale Burger Bar.  You know the type, they are going to give you a hefty feed but it’s not going to be made out of ingredients that they nipped out and bought from the discount isle at the supermarket, then stuck in the deep freeze until needed.

Such a Burger Bar is The Oxford in Bathurst, which we headed to after watching my kids go hard in their Brazillian Jujitsu tournament.  Being a Tarantino fan I immediately noticed they had a burger named Royale with Cheese.  But then I noticed something bigger – the Double Royal.

Burger Name: Double Royal (with fries)

Price: $28.50

Description: 2 x100% Wagyu Beef Patties, Pickles, Onions, Mustard, Double the Cheese, BTS Sauce, Cos Lettuce, Tomato & Texas BBQ Sauce.

Burger Review #6: The E-I-E-I-O Burger

Whilst not the biggest burger ever made, nor the most flavourful ever made, this burger is a far step above what you will get at any fast food restaurant.  The quality of the ingredients, the way the different flavours complimented each other – even the size itself – should make a Big Mac’s buns turn red with embarrassment for daring to also call itself a burger.

Not to say this was the greatest burger I’ve ever had, but it was a damn solid feed and tasted mighty fine!  The only downside was that with three condiments – the mustard, BTS Sauce and Texas BBQ Sauce, the burger only lasted so long before the buns became too saturated to hold it together. The melted cheese added to this problem too, rather than acting as a dairy-based adhesive.

Making the transition from Burger to Sloppy Joe – don’t judge it’s lifestyle choices

Also, given it was $28.50, a bigger serving of chips I feel was warranted.

Fill the tray mate!

But overall this was a very good burger and I would recommend it if visiting The Oxford in Bathurst.  I look forward to returning there in the future as their menu had many options containing huge sums of meat so, much like Bootleggers in Katoomba, seems to be very Big Angry Trev oriented.
