Yes, I believe it is a restaurant chain, but I don't know how widespread. I didn't find anything immediately on my first internet search because I googled "proper hamburger" and not "proper burger".I've never heard if that chain but guess it must have been an advert for someone who claims to make proper burgers as against to the usual Mac's or Burger King etc.
I do have a love for a good burger and out of the chains I find ' The handmade burger Co' and 'Gourmet Burger Kitchen' to be among the better.
London Pride? Nice choice
I haven't tried handmade burger Co but I really didn't rate GBK, reminded me of a fat bird's-eye burger from back in the day, very firm, overcooked and no flavour.I do have a love for a good burger and out of the chains I find ' The handmade burger Co' and 'Gourmet Burger Kitchen' to be among the better.

That is an odd thing to put in hamburger.I may start making my own burgers again, my local butcher I am sure is now making his burgers with pea starch/flour. It gives them a weird taste.
Most burgers contain rusk or breadcrumbs, to be gluten free the additives of choice are pea starch or rice starch. Pea starch has a slight flavour.That is an odd thing to put in hamburger.
Byrons was good until they changed the burger recipe.I like 5 guys but too expensive and I don't think it's worth (just like shake shack)! It's a shame we don't have Hardee's (sister company of Carls Jr.) in UK! About proper burgers I think they were talking about Byron (never tried).
Both too dry or dry and full of fat. The cows seem to have had a hard life.Why isn't a McD's/BK etc burger not considered to be a 'real' burger? Of course they might not be the tastiest out there or very good for you in the long run, but they are still are a burger!
In the UK, Wendys were around briefly. They were majestic!

5 guys is good and they only have meat in the burger (which is how it should be). If I remember correctly they also smash the burger but do it after they flip which seems weird to me.I like 5 guys but too expensive and I don't think it's worth (just like shake shack)!

I think they are over processed, the meat flavour doesn't really come through because of this. The best burgers I have tried are fresh minced beef and salt/pepper added just before cooking.Why isn't a McD's/BK etc burger not considered to be a 'real' burger?

I totally agree with that... For me mcd/bk burgers are just a "parody" of what a *real* burger should be... A ridiculous amount of meat excepting the most expensive ones, which usually costs the same or more than gourmet burgers on other places, and even in those cases the meat are really dry (you need to put a LOT of kepchup or other sauces) and in general overprocessed.....5 guys is good and they only have meat in the burger (which is how it should be).
