When craving a burger with a bit of a kick, the Mad Chook at Burger Point is your go-to option. This burger brings together the best of American-style burger craftsmanship with a spicy, Southern twist. The Mad Chook is not just another chicken burger; it’s a flavourful journey that combines the crispiness of Southern spiced fried chicken with fresh, vibrant toppings and a unique, spicy sauce.
The Perfect Chicken Fillet: What Makes It Southern Spiced
The heart of the Mad Chook is its Southern spiced fried chicken fillet. This isn’t your ordinary chicken fillet; it’s marinated with a special blend of spices that give it a distinctive southern flavour. The marination process ensures that every bite is packed with taste, even before it hits the fryer. The spices used bring a blend of heat, smokiness, and a hint of sweetness, making the chicken fillet stand out in both flavour and aroma.
When the fillet is fried, it achieves a perfect golden-brown crust. This crispy exterior encases the juicy, tender chicken within. The frying process is timed meticulously to ensure that the crust is crunchy while the inside remains succulent and full of flavour. The result is a chicken fillet that offers a satisfying crunch with each bite, balanced by the juicy tenderness of the meat inside.
The careful spicing and perfect frying technique make the Southern spiced chicken fillet the ideal base for the Mad Chook. It delivers a robust flavour profile that can stand up to, and be enhanced by, the other bold components of the burger, making each bite a rewarding experience.
The Fresh Factor: Lettuce and BP House Slaw
To balance the boldness of our Southern spiced chicken fillet, we add two fresh components: crisp lettuce and BP House Slaw. These ingredients are crucial for adding both texture and flavour, enhancing the overall burger experience.
Lettuce adds a refreshing crunch that’s essential to any good burger. Its crisp texture contrasts beautifully with the tender chicken fillet, adding a layer of lightness. This helps to balance out the richer, spicier elements of the Mad Chook, ensuring that each bite is not just tasty but refreshing as well.
BP House Slaw brings another dimension of freshness. Made from a mix of finely shredded cabbage and carrots, the slaw is lightly dressed in a tangy sauce that provides a little zing. This slaw is not just for texture; it’s for flavour. The tanginess of the slaw cuts through the richness of the fried chicken, providing a perfect balance of flavours. The slight creaminess of the slaw dressing also complements the spiciness of the chicken, making each mouthful well-rounded.
These fresh elements don’t just sit on top of the chicken fillet; they interact with the other components to create a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, making the Mad Chook a genuinely refreshing yet hearty burger.
Adding the Kick: Jalapeno Aioli’s Unique Touch
Jalapeno aioli is the secret ingredient that gives the Mad Chook its distinctive spiciness. This sauce isn’t just spicy; it’s a blend of rich, creamy mayonnaise infused with the bold, peppery heat of jalapenos. The jalapenos add a fiery kick that perfectly complements the Southern spiced chicken fillet, enhancing its flavours without overpowering them.
The aioli’s creaminess provides a cooling element that balances the heat, ensuring that the spiciness is pleasant rather than overwhelming. Each blob of this delicious sauce adds depth to the burger, offering a harmonious blend of spicy and creamy that transforms every bite into a memorable experience.
The jalapeno aioli also works brilliantly with the BP House Slaw, tying together the fresh, tangy flavours of the slaw with the rich, spicy chicken fillet. The combination of these elements creates a multi-layered taste experience that is deliciously complex but perfectly balanced. Every bite you take delivers a burst of rich flavours, perfectly rounded by the unique touch of our jalapeno aioli.
The Full Experience: How All Elements Come Together
The Mad Chook is much more than the sum of its parts. Each element—from the Southern spiced chicken fillet to the crisp lettuce, the tangy BP House Slaw, and the spicy jalapeno aioli—plays a vital role in creating a flavourful and satisfying burger.
When you take your first bite, the initial crunch of the fried chicken fillet catches your attention. This is quickly followed by the refreshing crispness of the lettuce and the tangy, creamy notes of the BP House Slaw.

The jalapeno aioli then comes into play, adding a spicy kick that lifts the overall taste of the burger to another level.
