Lanchonete Bacana
The X-Tudo (literally "X-Everything") is a Brazilian hamburger taken to its extreme. Its history is tied to the popularization of American-style fast food in Brazil, adapted and localized with a generous dose of Brazilian flair and ingredients.
The X-Tudo represents Brazilian culinary excess and a love for combining flavors. It's a common street food item and a popular choice for casual meals, often enjoyed late at night.
Culinary Indulgence
The X-Tudo exemplifies the Brazilian appreciation for abundant portions and combining diverse ingredients in a single dish.
Street Food Staple
Found in lanchonetes (snack bars) and from street vendors throughout Brazil, the X-Tudo is a readily available and affordable meal.
Social Gathering Food
Often enjoyed amongst friends and family during casual gatherings, sporting events, or late-night outings.
The X-Tudo boasts a symphony of flavors, from savory and salty to rich and creamy, with hints of sweetness and tanginess, all balanced by fresh vegetables.
The core flavor profile is built around the beef patty, enhanced by melted cheese (usually mozzarella or provolone), crispy bacon, and a fried egg. The addition of ham or sausage further amplifies the savory notes. Condiments like mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard add sweetness and tang. Fresh lettuce and tomato provide a refreshing counterpoint, while fillings like corn, peas, carrots, and potato sticks contribute unique textures and subtle sweetness.
Patty Perfection
Use good quality ground beef with a decent fat content for a juicy and flavorful patty. Season well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Ingredient Quality
Fresh ingredients are essential! Use ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and quality cheese and bacon.
Bun Selection
Choose a sturdy bun that can hold all the fillings without falling apart. A slightly sweet bun can complement the savory flavors.
Condiment Control
Don't overdo the condiments. Too much mayonnaise, ketchup, or mustard can overwhelm the other flavors.
Layering is Key
Layer ingredients strategically to prevent the bun from getting soggy. Place lettuce closest to the bun and heavier, saucier ingredients in the middle.
