Robb Walsh on Cheeburger Cheeburger's Onion Rings

Eating Our Words, Houston Press

Robb Walsh, whose work we really dig here on A Hamburger Today, reports not on the burgers at Cheeburger Cheeburger, but on the onion rings. They're fried to order in peanut oil, he says.

The rings were hot and crunchy with a tart (buttermilk?) batter flavor. They weren’t as impressive as the monster onion rings you get at Del Frisco or Flemings, or as iconic as Tookie’s rings, but they were pretty good for burger chain rings.

I don't have to tell regular readers that my favorite burger go-with is a side of onion rings. And any chain that's doing them right, even if not as good as a local mom-and-pop, is a chain that's on to something. For a location near you, visit cheeburger.com/locations.asp
