Crazy Alan's Swamp Shack

Crazy Alan's Swamp Shack Baybrook, TX In-Bred Burger Lettuce, Tomato, Onions, American Cheese with a Hand formed Beef patty mixed with smoked bacon & medium spiced jalapenos. $9.99 For the final burger of 2019, I tried a place that I continuously drive by but have never heard any reviews from anyone I know, making it a real gamble of a place and it turned out to be a somewhat interesting experience. Crazy Alan's Swamp Shack for those of you who do not know is a south Houston based Cajun restaurant that is very proud of it's seafood and Cajun cuisine if you look at the menu. For example, they even serve a burger where the patty is mixed with Alligator meat and another that is mixed with Crawfish meat. While these would have been excellent additions to this blog, I felt like mixing the meat with other meats would create an imbalance and thus did not try it, but I would love to recommend to go there to do so! Enough introduction, let's get to the me

Kat'z Deli

Katz's Deli Shenandoah, TX Carnegie Burger Bacon, Nosh Sauce, Cheddar Cheese, Jalapeno Cream Cheese Bites, Lettuce, & Tomato $13.99 I want to start by saying Merry Christmas to everyone (or anyone) who has followed me throughout this year and with the year coming to a close, I hope to close out on some strong burgers, and this one did not let me down on that. Katz's Deli is this 24/7 Deli/Restaurant that is in front of my neighborhood and despite driving by it all the time, I never stop, and now i regret it. They had a good selection of creative burgers, but the server said that this one is the most popular and one of his favorites, so I went ahead and took his word for it, and was not let down, but enough gushing over it, let's break it down! First of all, this thing is HUGE. I could only eat about half of it and had to save the rest to go, as you can see from the picture, it's just tall because of not only how thick the patty is, but because of

Craft Grill

Craft Grill Tomball, TX Gruene Burger Chipotle Sauce, Roasted Jalapeno Pepper Strips, House-Made Salsa Verde, & Monterrey Jack Cheese on a Challah Bun $12 I have to give the Craft Grill a lot of credit, they have an extremely large variety of tasty sounding burgers! I spent probably around 10 minutes trying to decide and then second guessing myself on which burger I would want to eat, and eventually just had one of the staff pick for me when they said that this burger was one of their newer and more frequently ordered. And honestly, I wasn't disappointed. The main theme of this burger is HOT. This burger is spicy because of the Chipotle sauce and the Roasted Jalapeno Pepper Strips which I have to say were probably the 2 best parts of this burger. Not only were they hot, but that packed a good amount of flavor and freshness along with the heat. Moving on to the rest of the supporting cast of the burger, you can clearly see the Monterrey Jack cheese that was me

Cormier's Kitchen

Cormier's Kitchen Spring, TX Hamburger Lettuce, Tomato, Onions, Pickles, Mayo, & Mustard $8.99 For my first burger back into the normal burger game (because let's be honest, Jack in the Box is not up to par with the burgers that I usually review on here) I went to a place that I have been seeing raved about on Facebook for their crawfish, but upon going through their pictures, they had great looking burgers and I was not disappointed. Let me start by giving full disclosure, I cannot give this burger full points because of it's lack of creativity. This is simply a regular hamburger, and while it doesn't have all the extra thrills that make for some fun burgers, this burger is STILL really awesome. The veggies that topped the burger were good for what they were. They tasted pretty fresh so they get a full amount of points there, but we are here to more importantly talk about the other aspects of the burger so let's get to it. The meat was super
