Buckle up for a bumpy ride because there's not much going right with this burger this week. Now before I start tearing it apart, I do have to disclose that it was really busy so that MAY have something to do with parts of it, but it's hard to use that excuse to justify most of the faults this burger has.
The meat itself was all around disappointing and actually caused me to not even eat the burger in it's entirety. While I get most of my burgers medium with a little pink, this burger was basically still mooing. Now like I said earlier, this could be due to how busy the kitchen was, but still it made the burger unappetizing to me. The meat also was not very juicy and didn't have any seasoning of any kind on it, making the burger have to rely on the fixings and not the meat itself.
The tomato and lettuce come separate from the burger and you can put it on itself and after touching them, they were warm, so it was pretty obvious that they were taken out of their containers and left out or under a heat lamp while the rest of the burger was being built. The jalapenos were very thick slices, which while it's not always a bad things, it is when the burger is so small (which we will get to later). The guacamole in my opinion was very bland. My fiance makes a kickass guacamole and if that was on this burger instead of their house guacamole, that might have made it go up a full point. I love sauteed onions and they went heavy on them, so they got some points there (but even then, that's just due to my love of the item). The bacon I personally didn't like because it was very chewy, but it had some good flavor so it wasn't a complete loss. The bun just seemed to be a generic bun that you could get at the store, so hard to give the burger praise there.
The burger itself was small compared to the price you were paying which is another thing that I try to take into account when grading as I don't want to send my fans to a place to pay more for a low quality burger when they could pay that money for something better, and that being said, if you want a lower quality burger I would send them to a place where they could get that on the cheap, but that's not here.



VERDICT: 1.5 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...

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...

Lord's Kitchen

Lord's Kitchen San Antonio, TX 1/2 lb Cheeseburger Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Pickle, Onion $10.25 I usually love my trips out of town because I get to go to a burger place that I don't have access to on a daily basis within my local area, but instead I was left with a severe feeling of disappointment on my drive home after eating a burger from the Lord's Kitchen. I opted to go with a regular cheeseburger because I wanted a full meal of fries and a drink and looking back now, I should maybe have gotten a specialty burger instead. The toppings that came on this burger were all the average things that you would expect from a burger place and it didn't taste like they were high quality, now they did not taste like they were of bad quality, just an average kind of taste. The meat, which I feel like should be the thing that you should take pride on, was bland. It honestly tasted to me like a burger that one may find at a drive thru like Burger King or Wend...
