I doubt it will last long in the UK, possibly a bit longer than it will in a stomach perhaps......

Hopefully it will work the other way and people having one of these 'things' from bk might be spurred into wanting the real thing and searching out someone like yourself John.

That reminds me of the infamous McRib burger McDonalds did a few years back, I'm sure the box will be tastier :lol:

Sadly there is a thing in advertising called "Artistic Licence" I mean advertising it as food takes it too far. However part of me thinks Esselle might be right, people may get dissapointed with this but become determined to find proper BBQ in the UK they may want to recollect tastes the had in the US?

A food stylist making a burger nice. What happened to the overworked, spotty 17 year old with a basic grasp of English who is trying to earn his "stars" by getting as many people as possible through his station throwing everything into a cardboard box, hopefully between the top and bottom of the bun? ;)
It's amazing the quality of food and response you get when you waltz in with a full film crew :lol:
