I think all of us have at some time on the road, come across a meal that took them by total surprise, whether it be by volume or contents.
I love driving, if I have three days off, one has to be on the road somewhere- definately some gypsy in my makeup!
Several years ago wifey and I were returning from Far North Queensland on Hwy 1, when we found a roadside tucker joint somewhere south of Mackay but well and truly out in the scrub. Called the Hamburger Hut, it fronted the highway and had a huge mob of Brahman cattle roaming in the long paddock behind.
We wheeled into the carpark and each ordered a "burger with the lot thanks".
Mine host asked were we sure we didn't want to share, and we laughed and left it at that.
Well, weren't we gobsmacked when two dinner plates appeared at our table.
On each one sat a single hamburger, sliced in half and individually wrapped, with little of the dinner plate surface to be seen!
A major accident occured about this time south of us, and we told the highway would be shut for at least an hour and a half.
"Well no need to rush now", I laughed as I set about this gastronomical challenge. Now I'm not the tallest bloke around, more in the "living proof gravity sucks" catergory in that respect, but I can "fang it" with most people as a rule.
Well, I got to tell you, this one had me beat. I managed to fit one wrapped half in before surrendering, and to cut a long story short, that was the only time in my life that one single hamburger become two meals and stuffed me both times! And it was b...... beautiful!
If anyone gets up that way in the future, let me know if there still cookin!
