Guest guest Posted June 20, 2003 Report Share Posted June 20, 2003 All of the talk of the BK veggie really got to me and I have been craving them miserably. I too had a bit of trouble in getting them microwaved rather than broiled but they did eventually obligue. The, worst problem, however, is that the people working do not know how long to cook them. Does anyone know what corperate has said about this or know what I should advise to these people as to how long to microwave them for a pleasurable outcome? The last time I went my kids and I ate the burgers, but had to remove some very hard ,dried out, portions as they were literally too hard to bite. (ie they were unevenly cooked and overdone in parts) I told the manager, that we wouldn't make a big deal of it this time, (as my kids were really bored and hungry from the extra wait to begin with), but that they were overdone. He said he would mess around with them, becuase " they are meant to be broiled, not microwaved, so we don't know how long to cook them. " His attitude spoke otherwise, and I would really like to eat edible burgers the next time we go. Anyone with the answers please respond. Thanks, Debbie SBC DSL - Now only $29.95 per month!

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 They should be microwaved for 1 minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 About 1 to 1.5 minutes per burger is max microwave time, otherwise they end up hard. Their microwave should also be on a revolving plate, otherwise they might be cooked unevenly. I stopped buying the BK Veggie because the employees said that they had to cook them 3-4 minutes, and each time they came out hard. For some reason, the managers think the BK Veggie is like animal burgers, which require to be cooked longer otherwise someone might get sick from an undercooked burger. , Abitof Mystique <a_bit_of_mystique> wrote: > All of the talk of the BK veggie really got to me and I have been craving them miserably. > > I too had a bit of trouble in getting them microwaved rather than broiled but they did eventually obligue.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 I've had them several times at different bk stores and to be honest, I think they always come out that way. They're just not meant to be nuked. Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 When I've had the veggie burger there, even broiled, it is over done and hard in places. One time we couldn't even eat it it was so hard. I was under the impression that they use Garden Burger brand burgers. If that is the case, or not, most burgers never take longer than a minute or 2. In addition, I would assume that there are instructions for microwaving on the box, especially if they are recieving a name brand product like Garden Burger. Let me know what you find out.
