Happy Hamburger Day
Yep,go grab one...and vegans I guess can join in with vegan burgers Anyways Post where you get one and what you get Im running the I20 corridor between Birmingham and Eutaw Al all day and its going to be tough to get one that is worthy of breaking my midweek diet mainly because of where I can pull my truck into and quality.. MaGennocides is out,despise Jacks nobody actively seeks out places like sonic,Checkers,and Rally(I like to call the irrelevant trio of me when it comes to Burgers) no Whattaburgers in this corridor,no 5 Guys May 28 15 05:12 am Link I can eat a hamburger every day.  May 28 15 06:33 am Link So could I except I don't want to look like most dudes do that share my line of work unfortunately. May 28 15 07:38 am Link Wimpy, Jake and I will be participating in this wonderful holiday . . .   SOS May 28 15 07:40 am Link I've been told theres a chain called in&out burger that make excellent burgers, but they arent anywhere near the eastcoast from what I can tell so I've never had one. personally I used to LOVE Hardee's cheeseburgers but that restaurant left my town a while ago. I think 5 guys is waaaaay overrated and tastes just like burger king. for burgers, I know its frowned upon, but I think a good ole McD's double cheesburger when cooked fresh is awesome.

Great Onion Rings too. http://www.yelp.com/biz/sooner-dairy-lunch-norman May 28 15 12:10 pm Link Hamburgers are the cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast, especially when they come from Big Kahuna Burger. If I must have a fast food hamburger, I prefer BK. McDonalds will do in a pinch as will Wendy's. There is a diner in my area that serves hamburgers that are smothered in mushrooms, onions, green peppers and swiss cheese. It's the meal of choice for me (hamburgers usually are because they are almost impossible to screw up unless they aren't cooked enough). I've been laying off hamburgers for the last 2 years, though. I've actually been laying off fast food. I prefer to cook for myself. The last 2 times I went out, though, I ended up with a chef salad. I personally think salad is one of the more gross things a person can eat (in terms of taste) but in trying to avoid bread, it's one of the few things I can order that doesn't include some that I might actually be able to keep down and have it be remotely close to healthy. May 28 15 12:19 pm Link White Castle - the granddaddy of fast food burgers. Founded: September 13, 1921 Generally credited as the first fast food chain in the US  [One of the owners of White Castle] is credited with invention of the hamburger bun as well as "the kitchen as assembly line, and the cook as infinitely replaceable technician," hence giving rise to the modern fast food phenomenon. Due to White Castle's innovation of having chain-wide standardized methods, customers could be sure that they would receive the same product and service in every White Castle restaurant. As Henry Ford did for car manufacturing, [White Castle] did for the making of burgers. Studio36 May 28 15 01:23 pm Link While the Whitecastle "burger" is dear in the hearts of many- it is as far from what I consider a real "burger" as Taco Bell is from actual Mexican food.  Mine wont look as good as the above clip art, but: This afternoon, I will grill two roughly 1/4 pound patties over a nice charcoal fire, and place them in a nice freshly baked bun (from the bakery, I didnt bake them ) with lettuce, pickle, red onion, tomato, a slice of colby cheese, mayo and a bit of mustard. I no doubt will have a couple nice cold beers to go with the burger. May 28 15 02:04 pm Link I could actually go for white castle today,sadly there are only the bland tasteless wannabe version here called Krystal May 28 15 02:08 pm Link Chris Rifkin wrote: LOL that made my day....

Their current location at is just a half block from the original grill on Rt. 66. When I was a kid, Johnnie's was a mandatory stop on our annual trip to my maternal grandparents. I stopped in there a few years ago on a trip to Amarillo. First time I'd been there in decades. I confess, I cried like a baby at the memories.

May 30 15 07:20 am Link I can live with or without the potato salad (mostly without because I'm the only one who seems to make it how I like it and it seems most don't like it that way). A burger off a grill, though, is definitely something I could go for all the time. This is especially true if there is some kind of wood in with the charcoal (apple or hickory works for me). May 30 15 07:40 am Link Lovely Day Media wrote: I'm actually not the biggest fan of potato salad for exactly the same reason you stated, that is why I make my own. Fresh dill, celery, pickles, etc. NO MUSTARD. May 30 15 07:47 am Link http://www.ribsfactory.nl/images/ribs_factory2.jpg (too big to embed) I didn't have this one, but the version without the second meat layer (between the top bun/lettuce and the lettuce/bacon layer). Best burger I ever had.

May 30 15 09:03 am Link Model Sarah wrote: For me, potato salad consists of potatoes (of course), sweet pickles (not dill), a touch of mustard (a tablespoon or so in a giant bowl leaves it with a little flavor that isn't overpowering), hard boiled eggs and some mayo (not miracle whip). If the potatoes are cooked properly, I can eat this stuff all day every day (especially if accompanied by ham). It seems whenever I go to someone else's house, they'll always smother the potato salad in miracle whip, onion, green or red peppers, celery AND a boat load of salt. Too many flavors for me and the salt is out. I add no salt to anything, ever. May 30 15 11:15 am Link |
