    Great recipe, came together surprisingly fast. The flavor of the cole slaw was unexpected, but it grew on me. Sandwich and fries were so tasty; altogether the plate looked fantastic!

    I haven't tried this recipe yet. While it may be a quick meal, I doubt it is the 20 minutes she states as cook time, or even the 30 minutes her show title indicates.
    Rachael is my favorite cook show host( I don't watch many, but her 30 minute meals concept is frustrating to me. She is more then welcome to challenge me on this 30 Minute Meal concept...

    It was delicious! The ketchup just tastes like cocktail sauce, but with that said, it was AWESOME cocktail sauce! Definitely complimented by the celery salt on the fries. Loved the tartar sauce as well. The slaw was wonderful, and I'll be making it again. As far as others' comments on Rachael's use of British vernacular, last time I checked this was a forum to rate RECIPES, not a place to bash the Food Network's talent.
