Grilled: Adam Lindsley, Seattle/Portland Correspondent

"Grilled" is our series of Q&As of burger-related people. It's been a while since we've done these regularly, but we're starting up again by interviewing our contributors so you can get to know the people behind our site. Today we're grilling Adam Lindsley, our Seattle and Portland burger correspondent since last November (but who will focus on Portland from now on since he recently moved there). He's impressively pulled triple-duty at Serious Eats; you can check out his pizza reviews at Slice and his soda taste tests at Serious Eats: Drinks.

Seattle: Spring Hill's Outrageously Good Burger Costs a Pretty Penny

It's been quite a while since I've had one of those eyes-rolling-back-in-the-head "Oh my God" burger moments (December, to be exact), and not once has it occurred in Seattle...until now.

Seattle: The Smoky, Funky, Bacon Jam-Slathered Burger at Skillet

Skillet, a vintage Airstream trailer-cum-mobile grill, serves a very fine grass-fed cheeseburger made even more delectable with a generous helping of their sweet, smoky, salty bacon jam. You heard right: bacon jam. And yes, it's as good as it sounds.

Seattle: BuiltBurger Is Not for Purists

BuiltBurger is not for the Josh Ozerskys of the world. Owner David Makuen clearly believes that straight-up ground beef is best served as an empty canvas upon which myriad ingredients—especially other meats—can be melded like colors on a palette to form something that's by turns art or sacrilege, depending on who you talk to.

A distant third, with just a smidge better burger if you ask me, is the epically named Burgermaster. And while their burger can hardly be called great, there's something about it that lifts it above the mire. Barely.

Seattle: The Sustainable and Spicy Burger at Local 360

As the locavore movement strides ever further into the mainstream, we're going to be seeing more and more establishments like Local 360. Their ultimate goal: finding up to 90 percent of their raw ingredients within 360 miles of Seattle. A respectable ambition, but all for naught if the food isn't any good.
