Chicken burger or sandwich??

[Pumpkin]

So I've always known chicken on burger buns to be called Chicken Burgers, but sharky calls them Chicken Sandwiches. To me, if it isn't on sandwich bread, it isn't a chicken sandwich, and a chicken sandwich is not the same as a chicken burger. The burger being on the buns. But he calls them both chicken sandwiches. Also, chicken burgers are usually the battered chicken like so:

So do you consider that a chicken sandwich or a chicken burger? Or both?

I have to agree with you shion, I would call that a chicken burger, for the same reasons you gave.

[Shorty]

Chicken sandwich. Or sangwich.

[StarCross1988]

I've never heard of anybody calling it a chicken burger, unless it was like ground chicken made into a burger. That would be appropriate I guess. Chicken burger just sounds too weird to me o.O

[Agent Proto]

I've always called them chicken sandwiches, despite being made with buns.

I think we will find out this is an American thing.

Maybe the UK, Aus, and Canada call 'em burgers.

Burger implies ground meat. What you have posted is a sandwich.

[Formalhaut]

Burger implies ground meat. What you have posted is a sandwich.

But then they're in 'burger' buns.

It's all semantics, really, though. Chicken Sandgers are very tasty.

Yep. That is a chicken sandwich.

Chicken burgers are made with ground chicken and formed into a burger-shaped patty.

I mean, you wouldn't call a tuna sandwich mix on a bun like that a "Tuna Burger" would you?

ALso, pulled pork bbq sandwiches are served on hamburger buns! Yet, they're sandwiches too!


I need bbq in my life now. *Drool*

#6 with no tomato. Large fries and a coke. two junior bacon cheeseburgers.

[Colonel Angus]

That is a sandwich. The type of bread doesn't determine whether or not it's a sandwich. A burger, by definition, has to be ground meat made into a patty. Soy is an exception, even though I find soy burgers more of an abomination.

This must be the case. I have never heard anyone call this a chicken sandwich.

Let's not forget these delicacies!

They're called "Sloppy Joes", not "Chili Burgers".

[Shorty]

A chili burger is a real thing, though. And it is so smurfing good. God bless Wienerschnitzel.

[Quindiana Jones]

If that meat was between two pieces of bread, it would still be a chicken burger.
