Red Brick Tavern

Red Brick Tavern
Conroe, TX
Honky-Tonk Burger
Topped with Applewood Smoked Bacon, RBT BBQ Sauce, Smoked Gouda Cheese, Grilled Jalapenos, and Crispy Onion Strings
$12.50



The next time you find yourself fighting a case at the Montgomery County Courthouse in downtown Conroe, or if you just happen to be in the area, there is a quaint little place that I recommend EVERYONE try out.
Personally, I never knew this place existed before happening upon it in a comment on a post for good burgers in the area and upon walking in, I was a little skeptic because it just seemed like a tiny little bar to watch live musicians, but I couldn't have been more wrong. While you definitely can not fit 100 people in the place, you could eat 100 burgers there and never get tired.
They had a pretty good selection of burgers and while I was leaning towards trying the one that seemed very Hawaiian, the server let me know that this was by far their most popular and for good reason.
To start with the bread, it itself was nothing special, just a regular hamburger bun, so easy to write off at first glance, but once you got into the inside of the burger is where the magic happens.
As you can see right of the back, the toppings are piled high on this burger. They try to cram everything on the burger and I tried to cram it all in my mouth. The bacon and crispy onion strings were SO crunchy yet retained all the flavor they needed to be a great complement to the burger. The grilled jalapenos (from the bites that didn't have too much sauce) were extremely hot which is always nice to get a little kick from the burger. Lastly, the cheese which was a smoked gouda, was a very good choice for the burger and even though I couldn't really taste it in a lot of bites due to everything else that was going on, it was good in the bites that I did have it.
The meat was super juicy and had great flavoring, this was probably one of my favorite burger patties of the year so far and I can't wait to go back and get another one.
On the negative side, I was not too big of a fan of the RBT BBQ sauce. It was very sweet and on the bites that had the jalapenos, the sweetness was so overpowering that I didn't even taste any spice, which no one wants that if they are getting a burger with jalapenos.
Overall, this burger is great and is a must try for everyone who lives within a short driving distance!

VERDICT: 4 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...

The Kitchen

The Kitchen The Woodlands, TX Cowboy Burger White Cheddar, Yellow Cheddar, Avocado, Bacon, Mixed Greens, Jalapenos, Onions, Tomatoes, Dill Pickles, Akaushi Wagyu on a Brioche Bun $13.50 For this week, I kept it very local and went to an establishment that was right across the street from my work. Going into it, I honestly didn't know what to expect because I had seen very good reviews on Facebook, but no one I personally knew had been to it so it was a bit of an enigma, and let me tell you, Facebook hit right on the money. The burger itself SOUNDS a lot bigger than it is. Don't get me wrong, it's no small burger, but just from the list of ingredients it sounds like it was going to be big, instead it was just tall. When looking at what all is on this burger, it's already got to get points for creativity. There's like a whole party of ingredients going on here The first thing I noticed was the patty. Not only do they melt their cheeses on to the p...

Snuffer's

Snuffer's Dallas, TX Dr. Pepper BBQ Bacon Burger Dr. Pepper-infused BBQ sauce, American Cheese, Pickles, Diced Red Onions, Mayo, Applewood Smoked Bacon Strips & Crispy Bacon Crumbles $8.99 Over the past weekend I took a trip to Dallas to take my fiance to a concert of her favorite singer (Post Malone) and I decided to grab a couple burgers, this was the first stop and boy did it not disappoint. Originally, I chose this place as it had released a "DakBurger" in 2016 in honor of the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, so i knew this place had to be fun at least to have such a good marketing strategy, and upon arriving I learned that it was a limited time thing, but when I came across this burger on the menu, being the Dr. Pepper super fan I am, I had to get it. THE SAUCE IS AMAZING. I honestly had no idea going into the burger what I was expecting from the sauce, but I defiinetly wasn't expecting anything this good.You could taste the bbq sauce in it, bu...
