Complete with vivid photographs, Ramsey celebrates the American classic by putting new twists on burgers such as the “Mac Daddy” which features macaroni and cheese buns; the “Bill U Murray Me?” which includes cabbage, egg yolk, and lard; and the “Horn Dog,” a hot dog that features two beef patties as a bun. Ramsey’s hamburgery isn’t limited to just beef either; he also has recipes for pork, fish, fowl, and even fruits like watermelon. And to top everything off, there’s concoctions for sauces, sides, desserts, and drinks!
