The Woodson’s

½ Pound Patty, Bacon Jam, Mac & Cheese, Bacon, and Fried Onions on a Brioche Bun

$14.99

For my first review, I opted to go with a place that I was very familiar with the food and already knew some of the menu, and while Woodson’s is a great place for many things, I think I would opt to go for their famous Giant Pretzels rather than their Burger.

The Woodson’s Burger deserves a 5 for creativity for putting such a smorgasbord of things on its burger, but honestly it was TOO much. The conflicting textures and tastes didn’t mesh well and the individual item’s great taste by themselves got lost in the shuffle.

Expanding on that, the Mac and Cheese was great by itself, I could eat a whole plate of the fried onions if one would let me, and the meat was cooked to perfection. BUT once we stacked it all together, it became a mess. This bun of the burger fell apart within the first minute due to the cream of the mac and cheese, mixing with the liquidity of the bacon jam causing it to be almost impossible to eat as a handheld burger and turning into a fork and knife procedure.

This burger weighs in at a whopping 1 pound & 3.5 ounces. When we factor in the fact that the patty itself is a half-pound, which leaves about 11 ounces for the buns and toppings. This burger DEFINETLY gives you a good amount of food for the prices, and can easily be shared between two people and still fill them up.

VERDICT: 3.5 out of 5 Stars.

And so the Chase continues…

The Dugout

The Dugout Texarkana, Arkansas Double Header & The Slugger Double Header-2 Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Bacon, Cheddar Cheese, Single Patty The Slugger-Single with Cheddar Cheese, Grilled Pineapple, Bang Bang Sauce, served on a White Bun $8.99 (Double Header), $6.29 (The Slugger) Over the past few weeks, I have been very busy with work and then on vacation road tripping to Nashville, Tennessee. So naturally on this road trip I had to get some burgers, and I decided to get multiple burgers at each stop to make up for all the weeks that I missed. The first burger I tried was the Double Header. In the easiest way to describe it, this was a burger patty smashed between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches. Now this doesn't seem like the most creative burger in the world, but it was FUN burger. And it was REALLY good. The Dugout is a hidden gem in Texarkana, their burgers are great! Now while I would love to give this burger a lot of points, I have to take into consideratio...

The Kitchen

The Kitchen The Woodlands, TX Cowboy Burger White Cheddar, Yellow Cheddar, Avocado, Bacon, Mixed Greens, Jalapenos, Onions, Tomatoes, Dill Pickles, Akaushi Wagyu on a Brioche Bun $13.50 For this week, I kept it very local and went to an establishment that was right across the street from my work. Going into it, I honestly didn't know what to expect because I had seen very good reviews on Facebook, but no one I personally knew had been to it so it was a bit of an enigma, and let me tell you, Facebook hit right on the money. The burger itself SOUNDS a lot bigger than it is. Don't get me wrong, it's no small burger, but just from the list of ingredients it sounds like it was going to be big, instead it was just tall. When looking at what all is on this burger, it's already got to get points for creativity. There's like a whole party of ingredients going on here The first thing I noticed was the patty. Not only do they melt their cheeses on to the p...

Snuffer's

Snuffer's Dallas, TX Dr. Pepper BBQ Bacon Burger Dr. Pepper-infused BBQ sauce, American Cheese, Pickles, Diced Red Onions, Mayo, Applewood Smoked Bacon Strips & Crispy Bacon Crumbles $8.99 Over the past weekend I took a trip to Dallas to take my fiance to a concert of her favorite singer (Post Malone) and I decided to grab a couple burgers, this was the first stop and boy did it not disappoint. Originally, I chose this place as it had released a "DakBurger" in 2016 in honor of the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, so i knew this place had to be fun at least to have such a good marketing strategy, and upon arriving I learned that it was a limited time thing, but when I came across this burger on the menu, being the Dr. Pepper super fan I am, I had to get it. THE SAUCE IS AMAZING. I honestly had no idea going into the burger what I was expecting from the sauce, but I defiinetly wasn't expecting anything this good.You could taste the bbq sauce in it, bu...
