For my last stop in the Dallas area, I hit up an very nontraditional place for a burger, it was a gas station taco stand, and it was surprisingly better than one would think.
This place was (according to my roommate) a very popular stop for late night tacos after going to the dance club that was a couple miles from the place, but the burgers were a question mark, so up to the challenge, I decided to try it.
Frankly, a lot of burger was just average, it had nothing special going on with the lettuce, onions, or tomatoes, but the addition of jalapenos & avocado did add a little extra to give it a little Mexican feel to it. Speaking to those 2 toppings, while I loved the avocado on the burger, the jalapenos were SO overpowering that I had to take some of them off because I simply could not taste the burger with them.
The meat was SUPER greasy because it was grilled on a flat top oven that was just filled with grease on it, so that was a win there.
The bacon was fried bacon and was probably the best part of this whole burger. It was so crunchy that I felt like I was going to have to go back up to the counter and just order a bucket of bacon to take home.
One of the main concerns that I had with this burger was the bread. It was a super thin hamburger bun that fell apart long before I could actually finish the burger, so that is something that would need to be addressed if I was trying to make this burger better.
The burger was very big, so if you are coming to try it, you will not leave hungry, but I think the size of it also added to the con of the bread being too weak.
Overall, I wasn't impressed by the burger in terms of it being the "perfect" burger, but I was impressed that a late night taco stand was able to produce this good of a burger.
