Nationwide
Bourbon Burger
Sweet Bourbon Sauce, Smokehouse Bacon, Bourbon Caramelized Onions, Blue Cheese.
$7.99




For this week, I thought I would bounce back from the bad burger with a place that since childhood, I always loved burgers from, but this time I thought I would get one of their signature burgers, which I have to say was met with mixed reviews.
So before we start, I love Fuddruckers, and I think their regular burgers are probably on par with some places' signature and creative burgers, but when Fuddruckers tries to get creative, that seems to be where things start to go wrong. Sometimes, less is better.
The bread (which is the same as a regular burger) is soft and tastes fresh, so there is no negative issues there. The meat (which is also the same as a regular burger) is very flavorful and while it doesn't seem to have much seasoning on it, it is still a great meat.
So now, we deviate from the regular burger and it goes down hill from here. The caramelized onions which is a part that I always look forward to on any burger were very rubbery in texture here and was almost like chewing gum. The bourbon sauce tasted like normal BBQ sauce, which I'm not saying is bad, but I am expecting something better if you're going to market it as "sweet bourbon sauce". Lastly, the bacon was so so. It was crispy in parts, and not crispy in parts, it was very thin, but as you can see from the burger, they gave me quite a bit, so I can't complain too much on that.
The burger was in my opinion, very pricey for what it was, I would never pay $8 for a burger of this quality or this size if I didn't have to. All in all, I would stick to the regular burgers that I love here in the future.


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...

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...
