This blog came up on a search I did on google. It isn't what I was looking for but I became interested when I started reading. Anyway, I have a suggestion for you. If you like the way the burger tastes when it is medium-rare, then you should have the burger cooked that way. The problem is with the bun getting soggy so how can we have the burger medium-rare but prevent the burger from getting soggy? Simple, just put a burger topping between the burger bottom and the bun bottom. The best is mayo b/c the mayo repels the burger juice. If you don't do mayo, then you could put lettuce, tomato, or an onion slice between the burger bottom and bun bottom.

Now you can enjoy a medium rare burger without the soggy mess.

Enjoy!
