Get Out of the Bun!
Part of a great hamburger is the bread you serve it on. For something new, try serving your burger on flat bread, pita bread, yeast rolls, an English muffin, onion rolls, Hawaiian bread, or even your own homemade hamburger buns. Toasting the buns or bread can also give the old burger a new presentation.
