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 thick and more importantly, dripping with juice. And with how big this burger was, it took me quite awhile to eat it, and it never dried out, which is something I am normally not accustomed to with these monster burgers. Adding to that, obviously this burger was very big. I didn't eat dinner after having this burger (and fries) and when I come back, I honestly will probably split a burger. So just know you are getting your money's worth out of this burger. The last positive thing I have to say about this burger is I loved the bun. I am always wanting to have good tasting bread with my burgers and this one was very flavorful and soft, I almost wanted to just order some of their buns to go so that I could make some burgers at home with them.
On the negative side, I already spoke to the lack of creativity, but the only other thing I think I would have graded negatively is that the burger wasn't seasoned to the potential that I thought it could be. Being a cajun place, they made sure that their fries had a cajun seasoning on them that tasted really good and gave them a little spice. I would be curious to see how their burger would have tasted if they had added that seasoning to the meat, I think it would have really made the burger pop and would have given it a less "normal burger" taste.
All in all, this burger while having it's creative flaws, is without a doubt the BEST basic burger I have had to date, and if Cormier's eventually rolls out some creative specialty burgers, I will be first in line to be back to try them.

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...

BurgerFi

BurgerFi The Woodlands, TX Cheeseburger American Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, BurgerFi Sauce $7.47 For today, I had the luck of being at BurgerFi's Customer Appreciation Day (which was really just a reopening) and happened to be one of the 50 who got the free burgers for a year, and normally I would be super excited about that, but unfortunately, the burger has me less excited that I have to eat 51 more of them within the next year. To start off, my order was wrong, which I get it was super busy so I'm not going to hold that against them, but I hope that is not a regular thing. Once I did get my correct order and sat down to eat, I was very surprised by how small the burger was. My fiance got a single patty burger and there was no way that was filling. When you have the double patty, it was a little more obviously, but the burgers are VERY hand held. The bun was probably my favorite part of the whole burger. It was thick enough to absorb the liquids on th...

Black Bear Diner

Black Bear Diner Nationwide Parmesan Sourdough Cheeseburger Dijon Mustard, Swiss Cheese, Tomato, & Grilled Onions on Thick-Crust Sourdough Bread grilled golden with a Garlic Parmesan Cheese Crust $10.99 If you have had the fortune of wandering the new Metropark Square in Conroe, you might have noticed this really cool and interesting new place, called the Black Bear Diner, which is COMPLETELY decked out in Bear stuff. My kids loved everything about it. My fiance loved the breakfast plates. I did not take a loving to the burger. As you can see, the burger actually LOOKS incredible. I was super psyched when reading it, and even more so when it came out, so description and appearance are 5/5, but it's when I tasted it was when the issues started. The meat was probably one of the least favorite meat patties I have had since starting this blog. It was bland and even worse it was tough and chewy. It was almost like chewing a piece of rubber. I was shocked, because...
