Posted // 2010-05-06 - May is National Burger Month -- like, we need another excuse to indulge in the Holy Hamburger. Well, I've weighed in periodically with thoughts on some of my favorite burgers, from In-N-Out and Dick's to Acme and TonyBurgers. Now it's your turn.
What burgers do you love? What burgers do you loathe? Where will you be celebrating National Burger Month?
John,
Add a four dollar fry to that seven dollar burger and you've just spent eleven bucks on a burger meal. Yep, too expensive. I can do better for much less.
I don't buy meat at Smiths. I try not to buy industrial, line processed meat.
Good beef can be found locally. Good bison can be found at Maddox, where they sell third pound patties for a fair price. I don't know about elk, but if I had some, I don't think I'd grind it and eat it on a bun.
Easy Street Brasserie in Park City does the ham-burger one better, well two-better. They have on their new summer menu a lamb burger and a buffalo burger. Beef is for beginners!
ESB Burger:
Apple-Wood Smoked Bacon, Blue Cheese,Red Onion and Roasted Garlic 11.00
Colorado Lamb Burger:
Feta, Shaved Onion, Tomato & Tzatziki 11.00
Buffalo Burger:
Green Chile, Cotija Cheese, Chipotle Aioli 11.00
The holy grail of burgers in salt lake is the garlic burger at the cottonbottom
Riches Mighty Fine Burgers & Grub is hands down one of the BEST burgers I've ever had! Located downtown in the heart of SLC - Rich himself can be found behind the counter grilling up these fine hand made patties. In addition, they have the most amazing Queso French Fries - so good!
OHMYGOD! Why do you hate planet Earth!? Are you seriously promoting methane spewing, forest clearing, water polluting, grain eating, cute looking cows as food? And especially during your current "green" issue?;-)
When I eat them, once every two months or less, I usually make my own with good beef. I make my own fries to go with, as well.
I like blue-bacon burgers. I like roasted poblano-cheddar burgers. I like a burger with a fresh tomato slice, mustard and sliced dill pickles.
I dislike most chain burgers. I dislike extremely thick burgers. I like In-N-Out from what I can remember of them. I've never had an Acme burger as I refuse to spend that kind of cash on something I can make as good or better. I think Maddox in Brigham City makes a pretty good junkfood burger, with the emphasis on junkfood. My wife likes the Buffalo burger at Wild Grape but again, that's an expensive effing burger.
