I am a manager for a large casual dining restaurant. We use a liquid type
butter as do many other casual dining restaurants. These days we use a
automated bun toaster, it butters the bread and pushes it through like a
conveyor belt. Yes, we butter our hamburger buns.

Random question:

In a typical diner in the U.S., is it common, uncommon, or
totally unheard of to brush butter onto a hamburger bun
before grilling it?

Thanks,
