Spam Burgers Have Descended on an Unsuspecting Sydney
They're here.
It was something we thought would remain tucked away in the USA and Japan, sitting happily on Burger King breakfast menus or part of a solid, questionable homemade stoner diet. But here it is, rearing its processed, pink head in Sydney. We're talking the unfathomable Spam burger.
We've heartily tucked into bao burgers, ramen burgers, mac 'n' cheese burgers. But this is next level shit (also what you'll likely drop in the bathroom after one of these). Recently-opened Darlinghurst venue Bloody Mary's is behind this diabolical burger, giving a bit of Australian love to the oft-ridiculed canned product. Owner Cinta Rockey told Good Food the burger tastes like "a burger crossed with a bacon-and-egg roll", which, let's be honest, sounds like some pretty high praise right there.
Just look at it. Look how pink it is, sitting serenely between its lettuce and cheese hombres. It'll set you back 16 Spam-enabling dollars. They've even used Spam's former prison cell to hold the fries.
Not one to rest on spammy laurels, the Hamptons-inspired Bloody Mary's has quite the jaw-dropping menu. They've casually and maniacally deep fried Oreos:
They stack their other, less Spammy burgers high with onion rings:
And of course, the mighty Bloody Mary is the star of the show, with a cocktail list including ten different Bloody Mary variations. You can choose your base spirit used including gin, tequila, dark rum and vodka, and then pick your garnishes. Fuck pickles! The 'Bloody Caesar' comes with bacon, cos lettuce and a prawn. Or this 'Bloody Hell' monster comes garnished with a prawn, chicken wing and a whole slider:
If you're keen, find the formidable Spam Burger at Bloody Marys, 332 Victoria Street. Darlinghurst, open for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week.
