joeyancho Posted September 22, 2014 #26 Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Not real meat for sure!! Sent from my Iphone 4 using Tapatalk Actually McDonald's is one hundred percent beef, no additives, no fillers. While guy's is good, in and out has nothing to worry about.

We love 5 Guys and we've enjoyed Guys Burgers on our last two cruises. They are very comparable. Just a few more days and we'll be indulging again! Woot Woot!

DHnDWplus2 Posted September 22, 2014 #29 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Food is always subjective...but I say YUK to Guy's. The meat tastes old and nasty and it's very greasy :( Give me Five Guys!

going2cruz Posted September 22, 2014 #30 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Not a huge burger fan however I'm looking forward to getting one this Saturday on the Freedom......love the shredded lettuce ....after I top it with lettuce I walk over to Bluelguana grill and add a scoop of the fresh salsa...... Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcearth Posted September 22, 2014 #31 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Just off of the Conquest - Guy's Burgers lived up to the hype for me - my best concoction all week was a double topped with chili. I prefer the thicker fries, and love their seasoning, but for those who don't, on Conquest class ships you can get the thinner style fries from the Fish n Chips station.

Doug910 Posted September 22, 2014 #32 Share Posted September 22, 2014 From what I've read, I am pretty sure that McDonalds is real 100% Argentine beef. I don't like them but it is not because of the type beef they use but because of the lack of proper seasoning and the way they are cooked. The meat has no flavor compared to the burgers I get at many other places. I did enjoy the Guy's burgers. ...With all respect, am I the only one who see the irony? Poster (tallyho) is describing the quality of McDonald's meat... and the profile picture is...a horse! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always our first stop on the ship! I agree about food being subjective. For me, I think the reasons Guy's beats Five Guys is because I'm on vacation and the salt in the ocean air just has something that adds to the burger experience. :) For those that prefer skinny fries and must have them with their burger (and you have a Fish and Chips on your ship); last week I saw a woman who was getting "just chips" from the Fish and Chips and then heading to Guy's for her burger. For me, I had seafood with my prefered skinny fries one day and Guy's on another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topguy Posted September 22, 2014 #35 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I know that I will catch grief about this, but I am not a fan of Guy's burgers. They drip with grease. There are many better burgers around the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homosassa Posted September 22, 2014 #37 Share Posted September 22, 2014 The meat tastes old and nasty and it's very greasy :( An accurate description if you try the meat by itself without the bun or any of the toppings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spire2000 Posted September 22, 2014 #38 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Not real meat for sure!! McDonalds burgers are real meat. What else would it be? Not sure of the source in the US, but here in Canada they go to great lengths to point out it is 100% Canadian beef. You can't make claims like that, at least up here, without it being true. Now what they do to that meat to prepare it for the restaurants is a different story entirely and there is much speculation on what that might be.

AZmike480 Posted September 22, 2014 #39 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Guys burgers are fantastic! Great choices and the freedom to make it your own with the condiment bar. I had one everyday for lunch on the Liberty! I wish all the carnival ships had a guy's burgers. AZmike480 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingCruiserNJ Posted September 22, 2014 #42 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I like guy's burgers. I'm not a huge fan of putting a bunch of toppings on a burger but a fresh and juicy, well seasoned burger patty is good. The one time I had them on the glory, they were fresh and tender, although not particularly thick but they tasted good. The toppings bar is overkill though. Too much stuff to choose from to put on the burger there. The fries are also very good. Fresh cut and tasty. Extremely greasy though. Get a napkin ready as you'll need one or three. I usually make my own burgers from scratch on the grill at home and I have never actually tried a burger at McDonald's so I can't comment there. However I like guy's more than five guys. Their fries are ok but I found the burger meat they use is very average and I could get similar quality from the frozen food aisle at the grocery store for a fraction of the price. Also, some have said that guy's is better for the sole reason you don't have to spend $5 or more for a burger and fries platter like at five guys. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiel53 Posted September 23, 2014 #44 Share Posted September 23, 2014 (edited) Last Friday on Liberty I had one and I didn't like it at all. I haven't ever had a burger that was crispy like this one was. It seemed as though it was overcooked then sat around for a while. I just got a cheeseburger and the roll was really soggy with the burger being dry. I am sure this is not the usual burger and in all fairness, it was about 2PM on a sea day, so I am sure most people had eaten earlier. I did like the toppings, but because the roll was so soggy, I just put them on the plate. I thought the fries were soggy and limp. Here again, I think it was all because things had been sitting. When we go on Liberty again, I will have to try one earlier in the day and I am sure it will be a lot better.

xyzcruiser Posted September 24, 2014 #45 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Can you get your burger cooked to your desired temp or must it be the dreaded mid well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggieworkman Posted September 25, 2014 #46 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Definitely REAL beef, and YUMMY.Just so you know, they either butter, or put mayonnaise on the buns, so if you don't want the bun too greasy, ask them for a bun without it. I was not a fan of the fries, at all, but DH and DD LOVE them. Enjoy!!!! Can anyone elaborate on whether they put mayonnaise or butter on the bun? Thanks, Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t1adams Posted September 25, 2014 #47 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Can someone tell me, who has tried BOTH burgers, how Guys Burgers are different from the regular grill burgers on the non-2.0 ships OTHER THAN the toppings? (And yes I know about the fries difference) I've had Guys but not a regular one. Our ship has been changed next spring break and we will now be on a non-2.0 ship. I could personally care less about the burger difference but my dh really liked the Guys. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelin' Nauti' Posted September 25, 2014 #49 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Anyone tried these burgers? Is it "real" beef, as in, not McDonalds type meat! :eek::D Guy does not disappoint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvit! Posted September 25, 2014 #50 Share Posted September 25, 2014 As for McDonad's, don't they use that "mechanically extruded beef" whereby they scrape every little scrap of meat off the carcasses, rather than grinding up large cuts of meat?
