Applebee’s Aloha Burger: ‘A Mess’

Let’s get all chain food for a miute and talk about Applebee’s Tyler Florence-designed line of dishes. The chain’s partnership with the celebrity chef? Well, it’s intended to give Applebee’s a bit of class or whatever you want to call it. One of the dishes on call is the “Aloha Burger”, with grilled pineapple, pineapply salsa, bacon, jack cheese and teriyaki mayo. The Palm Beach Post tried out the burger… and Were not impressed:


“Literally, this burger was a mess. By the time I got to the last third of it, the juice from the grilled pineapple had saturated the bun, which held the burger together about as well as a wet tissue. I do give Tyler much respect for marrying a perfectly ripe, freshly cut pineapple with a succulent Angus patty. I had flashbacks to the first time I ate a pineapple and ham pizza. It’s an odd coupling that works. But this didn’t.”
