Buffburger

Buffburger
Houston, TX
Buff Classic
Butter Lettuce, Vine Tomato, Red Onion, House Pickles, & Buff Mayo on a white bun
$7.95

For one of my weekly trips through Houston, I decided to go to this little chain that I had heard had some good burgers and while my taste buds weren't disappointed, my stomach and wallet most certainly was.
When ordering the burger, I was a little sad that the $8 price for just the basic burger didn't come with fries, but I felt like if it was a mind blowingly good burger, it would be worth it, so I moved on.
When I received the burger, the first thing that I (and you can from the picture) noticed was that the toppings seemed to engulf the burger. The burger itself was really small, yet I had dinosaur sized lettuce and huge slices of tomato on the burger, which just seemed odd to me.
Once I bit into the burger, honestly the ridiculous amounts of toppings were what I could taste the most, but once I removed the toppings, the burger was actually quite good. The meat was very soft and very juicy, and as an added plus it was cooked on a wood burning grill, so it had that distinctive flavor that you can only get from a wood burning grill, and I happen to love that. Only thing I could say, is that there could have been more seasoning on the meat itself.
The bun was very soft and VERY thick, so you had to get through a lot of bread in a bite, which I think kind of subtracts from the overall burger since I am trying to really taste the meat more than the other aspects, but that seems to be the Achilles' heel of this burger in general.



VERDICT: 3 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...

Walden War-Tejas Cafe

Tejas Cafe (Mariel's Deli) & (Walden Market) Montgomery, TX Tejas Burger Cheese, Jalapenos, Onions, Cilanto & Chipotle Mayo on a Jalapeno Bun (with Ketchup at Tejas Cafe Walden Market) $7 For this week, I had a friend recommend me a place to go but when looking up the place, I found that there were two of the same name on the same road and when I couldn't get a hold of said friend, I had a very tough decision to make. I either tried one and hoped it was the right one, or I TRY THEM BOTH. I got both, and therefore we have the War on Walden Road between the Two Tejas Cafes. Now both Tejas Cafes are within Shell gast stations on Walden road, one in the Shell that has "Mariel's Deli" and one that has "Walden Market". Before I start, I can tell there is some skepticism, "You want me to eat gas station food?" Trust me, I had THE SAME THOUGHT before I was led to this place, but holy shit was I wrong. THIS PLACE IS GREAT. Ri...

Uncle Tony's Burgers

Uncle Tony's Burgers Spring, TX Rattlesnake Cheeseburger Angus Beef mixed with Special Spicy Pork Sausage, Diced Onions, Chopped Jalapenos on Jalapeno Cheddar Sourdough Bun with Lettuce, Onions, Pickles, Tomato, & Muenster Cheese $12.50 As if I didn't already have my fill of spicy burgers in the past few weeks, I decided to hit it out of the park with another delectably tasty spicy burger from Uncle Tony's. Uncle Tony's Burgers claim to fame is their specialty Rattlesnake Cheeseburgers (which if you didn't read in the description) is a burger patty mixed with spicy pork sausage (hot), diced onions, & chopped jalapenos (more hot) in which they slap in between a jalapeno cheddar bun (just in case you wanted more hot). This is such a great idea and great burger for those who are fans of spiciness and should be tried immediately. As far as a breakdown of said burger, we should start with it's main attraction, the meat. The meat is so fla...
