Watched Food Wars

Mugshots has a burger with peanut butter on it. Had a friend get it and I tried a bite. It was good, but I don't think I'd ever order it. (Especially with the McDonald on the same menu!)

This is totally stupid commentary, but peanut butter actually was used much more originally in savory foods. There are old recipes calling for tuna fish and peanut butter sandwiches. And if you think about the cuisine of Southeast Asia, peanut sauces and the like are often used to enhance the flavor of meat.

I've fussed around with adding a tablespoon of peanut butter into ground meat before cooking burgers. It adds some flavor but whether it is groundbreaking or worth it, I can't say.

I haven't done the peanut butter on a hamburger but who knows I might one day.

What I have done is ground brisket and made burgers with it and I can say, it's well worth it. A friend in Lafayette (who taught me drunken chicken in the late 80's) cooked one for me and it was amazing. And easy is you have a meat grinder or a small processor.

I do like a fried egg on a burger. And another friend cooked peanut butter and jelly wings not long ago and they were good.
