Driving by the BK this week I saw on their sign these words:

Try our new smokehouse pork BBQ sandwich!

I have not tried it. Any of you tried the thing?

It's about the same class of 'BBQ' pork from Subway. Maybe if I was
stuck on a desert island.... I stress 'maybe' Mark

I wonder where they have the smokehouse. I may give it a try, but it will
be hard to better a McRib though.

Hey, I liked the McRib, but it was nothing like ribs. You
had to like it for itself.

Burger King, like Subway just uses some 3rd party barbeque prepackaged
stuff for their sandwiches. It's no different than getting the pulled
pork in sauce in plastic containers that you find at a supermarket.
They just use their buns and toppings.

That's better than what you'd get if the help made the stuff.

Reheating pulled pork can be very good, if the original pulled
pork was good and you reheat it right.

The biggest problem with the supermarket stuff is what they use
for sauce, and how much sauce they use. It doesn't taste the
same as real BBQ pulled pork, but it's ok as it's own thing.

If you've been paying attention to the labels on the store bought pulled
pork you may notice that it says "BBQ sauce with pork" instead of "Smoked
pork in BBQ sauce". Seems somebody righteously complained that the label
didn't meet federal guidelines. Sauce comprises over half of the contents.

Beware, Burger King does not cook it's meat all the way through, I know this
for a fact. If you eat under cooked pork it could be bad news.

I dislike BB for a variety of reasons, but I have never seen any meat
products that have been undercooked at any of the stores I have been to. So
I guess this must be a store-by-store issue, rather than a general problem??

I have the reverse problem at my local store. They burn everything. You
would think they have a smoker with all the smoke they put out.
I think I may just live in ignorant bliss on the BK sandwich.
Think I would rather go to the effort of thawing some of my last batch of
pulled pork.
However, I do agree with the guy that likes the McRib. For what they are,
they are mighty tastee.

Just my opinion, but I think you are full of crap. Prove your statement.

What is undercooked to you? I eat port at 140 to 150 degrees.

Commercially grown pork presents no threat of trichanosis (sp?)
now that the pigs are fed a controlled diet and not allowed
to forage.

I do tenderloins to 130-133 or so. And cured uncooked ham I eat
raw.

I got one of their whoppers bit into it and it was almost raw. I called the
health department, they sent someone to investigate and found that they were
not cooking the meat all the way through even though the manager said they
did. At another BK we had to send out burgers back because they were not
cooked. A friend of ours ate at a BK and their young son almost died, he had
to have a blood transfusion. It is BK that is full of crap and you if you
eat that dangerous junk they put out.

OK, it may happen at a location or a given shift, etc. That does not mean
the entire chain is faulty.

How cooked were they? What makes you sure they were not properly cooked?
Was this j ust your opinhion or wre other complaining.

Yeah, my mother ate a slice of white bread and she died. All white bread
kills. I really have a hard time understanding how an under cooked burger is
going to cause need for a transfusion. I don't see ambulances at their
door, I don't see hospitals loaded with BK custoemrs.

You did not provide any details, locations, the real cause of the problem
with the child, etc. Yes, you may have had a burger, but I still think you
are wrong overall. You still have not given viable evidence.

I have a step sister that will not tolerate a piece of meat that exhibits
any hint of red juice. We've heard it here many times. People who
demand that their serving be incinerated before being plated. God
save us from jerks that were brainwashed in their infant days and
never learned to think for themselves.

I just ate some sliced leftover top-sirloin that only reached 123F
when it was roasted (the temp didn't rise after it was taken out)

Threw some kosher salt on it and served with stir-fried spinach...
Damn. Life is good raw.
