We Made a Big Black BigMac

Aside from their yearly Big America burgers, McDonald’s Japan is usually mild-mannered when it comes to gimmicky burgers. Burger King Japan, however, is the flashy, too-much-making-wearing stepsister of the far more popular McDonald’s. From the Pumpkin Bomb Burger, filled with deep-fried pieces of kabocha to the BK RiNGO Burger filled with grilled slices of apples and cinnamon, BK Japan has produced their fair share of shocking burgers.

Arguably the most shocking burger to grace the “BK Lounge” was the completely black Kuro Burger, released in September.

Since McDonald’s doesn’t have a black version of their signature sandwich, our resident foodie, Kuzo, decided to make his own Black BigMac…a BigBlack if you will.

Using three of the Burger King Kuro Burger’s buns, which are blackened with bamboo charcoal, Kuzo managed to recreate an evil BigMac. Although we omitted the black squid ink ketchup that the original BK Kuro Burger was slathered in, the black BigMac wasn’t exactly delicious. Because the black bun is extremely chewy and plump, it doesn’t go well with the not-so-juicy BigMac patties. Since Burger King’s charbroiled patties are juicy and substantial, the meat juices soak into the fluffy black buns, creating an even bigger punch of meaty flavor.

The verdict: BigMac buns should stay on BigMacs, Kuro Burger buns are best on the Kuro Burger.

…I suppose we wasted our time.
