Wiley - The $60 Rossinni - Burger Bar, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, NV - #7

Won some money with the sole reason to order a "free" $60 Burger, and that's what I did.
Kobe beef, Foie Gras, Truffles, Truffle sauce on an onion bun.
8.5/10
While it was decadent and extravagant, I think I'm too used to seeking out a good charbroiled beef patty with that slightly burnt flavor, mustard, ketchup and a crisp leaf of lettuce. Not to mention, cheese.
But don't get me wrong, this thing was damn good.
It was also great to pour the left over truffle sauce on the fries.

Pev - Freddy's Steakburger - COCO - Burger#13

6/10 Burgers might be steak but they are paper thin. Good taste for a place just a tad over your typical fast food burger house.

Slow Ride - Keskins Takeaway - Chippenham, Wiltshire - kebab #8

4/10: When you know better than to ever eat this shit, it's hard to score them down too much (I would have knocked real food severely, but the funny encounter with a charity worker raised the whole experience for me...plus I had just run 6 miles with 3 pub stops so my judgement is already in question).


Incline Bunny / mountain shadows / old Colorado city / 6/7 #6

This burger was unlike the rest it was well done .. That's not the way I eat my burgers..also not a huge piece of Callicrate ..next time I'm getting a double !!!

Timko - Fate Brewing - Boulder, CO - Burger #20

6/10 - "trifecta burger" - beef with some lamb and pork. Cherry jalapeño relish and Gouda cheese with roasted tomatoes. Combination of ingredients was great but since they just opened yesterday, the execution suffered. Way overcooked. (Ordered mid rare served almost well). Fries were on par with The Suns. This will be an 8 if they get it right.

pjtravels - Homefield Grill - Round Rock, TX - burger #15

7/10. Mushroom onion on Hawaiian sweet roll. Surprisingly tasty.

brownie/The Keg/Manitou/burger #12

Hogie style. Best burger in Manitou, though you go to Manitou for
drinks, not food.

7/10. Mushroom onion on Hawaiian sweet roll. Surprisingly tasty.

Digger/Longwood Brewpub/Nanaimo B.C./Burger #4

Meh. 6/10
 Very big bun, nothing special, but I will give them an extra point for the 2 lbs. of French Fries that came with it.
Nice I.P.A.to wash it down ,made in house.

Rayzor - Blackstar Coop - austin, tx - burger #6

Pastrami burger (current special), med rare. House-made pastrami was tasty, but overwhelmed the beef a bit. I remember the buns being better on their regular burgers, so i'm not sure if they switched. 6/10

Peter Pepper, Sandy's, Austin, Burger # 9

Sandy's is another institution in Austin Burger joints, established in 1946. Part of that staying power is the cheap prices, the classic hamburger stand experience, and the frozen custard treats. Also, the owner was wise enough to sign a 99 year lease on the joint. Still, all of the charm, ambience and custard cannot make up for an unremarkable burger. Sysco patty on a Sysco bun with Sysco veggies and Sysco sauce. 4/10. Unscored bonus points for flavored cherry coke and Peter Gabriel.

Jimd Marigolds CSCO #7

9/10 Delicious, juicy, very large, be hungry

Jimd Freddy's CSCO #6 6/10

New to Colorado Springs, must be a chain. Double burger, crispy fries. Great ketchup, life is to short to eat runny ketchup.

nutsandboltons - Gaucho - London - Steamed Ham #10

Good seasonings on the patty.  Bun was quite flaky, but held together very well.  -1 point for using floppy rashers instead of streaky bacon.

8/10

pjtravels - NXNW - Austin, TX - burger #14

6/10. Nice flavor, blue / cheddar cheese gave it a nice touch. Decent garlic fries.

Digger/Original Joe's/ Nanaimo, B.C./Burger #3 (With Pitcher,this time, I'm such an Idiot!)

The Sargeant Pepper Burger. Lots of heat, especially after adding a bunch of Sriracha Rooster Sauce. Solid 7/10.

Taste: bland. Not bad, but not good

Omg cake - zaitzeff - manhattan - #8

From the looks of it, this burger looks awful. But surprisingly, it's seasoned quite well. The German high grade mustard is what did it .

8/10

Timko - (cra)Applebee's - Fairmont, WV - Burger #18

-2/10 - that's a negative 2. I type this with the deepest regret, from the throne. This quesadilla burger was quite the short term investment. Options were limited in this bumfuck town so I thought I'd have some fun and order this "fun" burger. Nay.

LONGHORN STEAKHOUSE Fredericksburg, VA They have 1 burger. 1/2 pounder Angus beef.   ⬆ with cheddar 6.5/10 ⬇ with swiss & bacon 6/10 I liked that buns did not fall apart on either. I was missing something but not quite sure what. The Tonions (yes T onions) are awesome.

HaVoCLaD - J&J Barbeque and Burgers - Lago Vista - #14

5/10

J&J Barbeque and Burgers is a Cedar Park institution which I've been to many times.  It was very cool of them to open a satellite restaurant in LV last year in the location of the sometimes great but erratic Tugs BBQ.

This time out I had the 1/2 lb. bacon cheeseburger with LTOPMuMa.  The tasty char from the flattop was not enough to make up for the overcooked patty.  The bacon was thick and plentiful, but the bun was plain.

Fries were breaded but not excessively so.

All in all, an average burger.  Usually when I go here I get the chicken, BBQ or migas.  I'll likely stick to those in the future.


Timko - TAG Burger - Denver, CO - Burger #17

9/10 - solid. Was waaaaayy better than it looks. Wish it was a smidge bigger for a better meat to bun ratio. Only negative. The duck fat fries are the best fries I think I've ever had in my life. I swear they made them with duck fat, unicorn tears, the blood of infants, and they might have actually coated them with sugar. The place blows though. A little too much skinny jeans and dark rimmed glasses, with a old 90's NYC dance club playlist playing way too loud. Beer is Great Divides seasonal Trippel. Solid beer. JT is a wanker.

Rayzor - The Grist Mill - gruene, tx - burger #5

The Cheeseburger, no mayo, med rare. Cooked as it should be, and the cheddar melted onto the patty was nice, decent bun, but the meat was just... blah. 6/10

brownie/Bob's Atomic Burgers/Golden, CO/burger #11

Slow Ride - Marmaris Kebabs - Swindon - kebab #7



6/10, again.  Tasted good (I already mentioned elsewhere the sneaky saltiness and the fact that the house lighting made colour photography difficult).  This is a small, 8 inches wide, 6 deep and 5 tall.

Omg cake - flipster - Brooklyn - #7

Flipster burgers. Bacon, mozzarella, Caramelized unions. Wasn't as good as I had hoped. The burger wasn't seasoned enough. The chocolate cake was good though

6/10

JP - The Pharmacy Beer Garden - Nashville TN - #5

The Farm Burger - bacon, country ham, egg

Beer - French Broad IPA

nutsandboltons - Byron (Canary Wharf) - London - Steamed Ham #9

'Proper Hamburgers' is their tagline, and despite the fact that phrasing it that way anglicizes a decidedly American food, they totally get it right.  Ordered the Byron medium rare, and it didn't disappoint.  Pink and juicy in the middle, nice flavorful char on the outside, bacon (real streaky bacon, not rashers!), lettuce, tomato, onion, cheddar, and Byron sauce (which is suspiciously similar to thousand island dressing).  Fantstisch!  They lose a point for being extra pricey, though.  £16 ($24+) for burger, side, and a beer.  Ridiculous.


9/10

Courgette fries (zucchini for those who don't speak French) were ok, but the breading didn't stick and the zucchini was too limp.  A Sierra Nevada Kellerweis finished things off nicely.

Biliruben - Stonehouse Wood Fire Grill - ATX - #13

8 / 10

Name: The Rise and Shine
Toppings: LTOC(c)MaBE
Patty: 1/5 rare
Taste: Very tasty and very juicy. And it's always a winner if you put an egg on it.

Pev - Cy's Drive In - COCO - Burger#11

6/10 - I'd give it a 5 since it was a pretty standard burger. Cy's has been around forever which is pretty cool, so I'll make it a 6.

Fwd: HaVoCLaD - Sandeez Hamburger Hut - Lakeway, TX - #12

3/10


I was headed to P. Terry's when I saw this dive along the side of 620.  If only I'd kept going...


Sandeez Hamburger Hut looks like it was built 40 years ago for about $2500 and not updated much since.  In other words, my kind of place!  It had a nice decrepit look inside, a fairly expansive menu and a chalk board filled with interesting sounding burgers called "Bucket List Burgers".  The floor slanted worse than anything I've seen since my grandfather's house in the mid-70's.


I selected the Hellburger which is described as Burger w/pepperjack cheese, topped w/ grilled jalapenos, green chiles, buffalo sauce and siracha."  Spicy food is right up my alley so this sounded perfect, it came with fries and a drink for $8.50.


10 minutes later, it arrived.  It was so skinny I had to pop the hood to verify that I didn't get a plain jane.  Everything looked to be there.  I didn't taste the siracha, and the grilled jalapenos were actually pickled.  Those two ingredient changes greatly lowered the heat potential.  The green chilis were probably poblanos so they didn't add anything.


The bun was grilled but otherwise non-descript.  The fries were obviously cooked a fair bit ahead of time and held.  Imagine how McD's fries taste when you get home after screwing up and having to stop for gas *after* you hit the drive through.


The burger was a quarter lb. Sysco low budget burger.  The less said about this the better.


I ate the whole burger so I can't rate it lower than a 3 on my scale, however I recommend y'all look for better places than Sandeez.



Jimd - Cy's Drive In -CSCO-#5

8/10 Alaskan burger with Texas toothpicks
Tons of burger menus from different cities, in the event that you're travelling.

Wiley - Gourdough's - Austin, Tx - #6

The El Camino was ridiculous.
Chipotle Cheese, Chipotle Mayonnaise, Pickled Jalapeños, Bacon, Cilantro, Sliced Tomato and Fried Onions.
A good ridiculous. I loved it. I could have used a regular bun than a donut bun, but the flavor explosion was awesome. I want to eat it again.
The big issue is the slopp. It is so sloppy, but the napkin they give you is awesome.
I'd give love to give this a 10, but -1 due to donut bun, -1 due to slopp, so it gets 8/10, but a solid 8. But damn, that's a freaking great burger. Those pickled jalapeños were great. o_O!

Lulu - Boulders on Broadway - Tempe, AZ - #7

Mushroom Double Swiss burger which I apparently didn't take a picture of courtesy of the accompanying beer and whiskey. So I present a pic of indoor bike parking instead which is super rad. It was a good burger as I recall. Solid 7/10 and it came with waffle fries. I am already sick of eating burgers!

nutsandboltons - Hopdoddy (north) - Austin - Steamed Ham #8

I am disappoint.  I don't know what went wrong here.

I've eaten at the south location a number of times, and the burgers are always good.  Plus, the Terlingua is my favorite at this establishment -- what's better on a burger than a Frito pie?  Nothing, that's what.  Unless it's a second burger that's also topped with a Frito pie.  Double-Frito all the way, so intense!  It's chili all the way down!  We've reached critical pie; the waveform is collapsing!  ZOMG the zeitgeist!!!  ZOOM AND ENHANCE!!


Ahem...  sorry.  I'm better now.  This is usually at least a solid 9/10, and the Sea Salt and Caramel milkshake pushes it even higher.

When I vistied the north location last Saturday, though, I was not impressed.  The burger was sloppy, poorly done, and the grind had a horrible mealy consistency.  I ordered it medium-rare, which may have been a mistake.  The center wasn't pink.  It was pale, almost translucent.  Ugh.  Nasty.  The chili was characteristically good (and the Fritos were predictably Frito-ey), but the burger itself was pretty bad.  Even the milkshake wasn't great - the salt crystals were already dissolved so they didn't explode in a sweetness-magnifying burst of salty goodness like they usually do.


3/10

Hopdoddy, you can do so much better.

nutsandboltons - Twin Peaks - Austin - Steamed Ham #7

Still playing catch-up.  This one is from January 17th.  The Hickory Burger at Twin Peaks (south, Stassney & I-35) was surprisingly good, given the type of place it is.  Think Hooters, only with a Lumberjack theme and competent wait staff.  Double patty, bacon, hickory bbq sauce, cheddar, done a good solid medium.   Juicy and with a good flavor.  Their fries are also pretty good - thick-cut steak fries, well seasoned.


8/10

Another favorite at this place is the Poblano burger.  They've taken it off the menu sometime in the last year, but you can still get it if you order the poblano chicken sandwich and sub out a burger patty or two.  :D

nutsandboltons - Casino El Camino - Austin - Steamed Ham # 6

I'm a little late posting the next couple burgers - the trip to Austin was eventful, and I got sick in the middle of it, and I'm only just now catching up on work, let alone the fun stuff.  LIke burgers.  Like this one.  It's the Buffalo burger from Casino El Camino, upgraded to the 'Explosive' wing sauce.  Fantastic burger, so thick they put it on the bun, cut it in half, and then put the burger back on the griddle to char the center a little bit.

10/10, although I came back the following week and was disappointed in the Amarillo burger...

Peter Pepper, Gorgoughs Public House, Austin, Burger # 8

Had a Ron Burgundy. A burger served on a donut bun with some other sloppy shit like a fried egg and some cheese and maybe guacamole? Shit I have no idea but this fucker was sloppy and good going down but the gut bomb factor was too much to bear. 5 of 10. Shit.
