Burger Review Roundup
Too much burger review-age and too little time means we've got quite a backlog of links to share. Here's a list of some burger reviews from around the country published this month:
- Cook's Tour (Houston Chronicle) on C & D Burger Shoppe: The mustard-laden, old-fashioned burgers cooked until well done are elevated by the restaurant's "timeless, comforting gestalt" and well-stocked jukebox.
- The Seattle Times on Zippy's Giant Burgers: Recommended burger is the No. 11. topped with goathorn peppers, chipotle mayo, and jack and smoked cheese.
- Contra Costa Times on BurgerMeister: This Bay Area burger chain serves hand-formed, flame grilled burgers. Their MeisterBurger is topped with bacon, double cheese, avocado, grilled red onions, and mushrooms.
- Idaho Statesman on Boobies: You won't find any scantily-clad women here; Boobies is the name of a dog. The signature Boobies Burger is a chili burger available as a single, double and triple.
- The Joplin Globe on Gooch Bros. Grill: Burgers come with one to six patties at this burger joint in Missouri. The six-pattied version called the Double Greasy Gene is named after the Gooch brothers' father.
- Miami Herald on 8 Oz. Burger Bar: The "good but not great" burgers are made of the house blend of sirloin, tri-tip, short rib and chuck. They're offering a free 12-ounce beer with any burger until the end of March. [Review on AHT]
