drnykterstein Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 The ones I make with franks red hot cooked into the beef, with the tastiest sourdough i can find, and usually topped with grilled vegetables of some sort, and some expensive mustard, i love my mustards. home cooked food is always better.
WWVaBeach Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Believe it or not my favorite cheeseburger is at the airport Holiday Inn in Corpus Christi Tx. Half-pound angus and it's served on what can only be described as a burger size sweet dinner roll.
EndZoneCrew Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 I nominate White Castle......Once it hits your lips, it's so good!
dib Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 my wife makes a chicken wing burger (the cheese is bleu chesse) and on game days we get Beef on Weck

Elmwood?--sorry haven't lived in BUFF for years but do visit. Went there about 7-8 years ago. I know its closed or changed owners now.

Man, now your making me miss SA (which I swore I never would). Another good place down there for burgers is Chesters. There was one on Pat Booker Rd by Randolph AFB and another on loop 410 (I know Blue, that's pretty vague). Next time your on the northeast side of SA, check out Chesters.

Lori Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 ... was NOT the ten-dollar model I had in the Cleveland airport Monday afternoon. Sounded good - bacon/cheese/mushrooms/onions - but lost something in the transition from the menu to the plate. Ah well... Little place just outside Portville, Red's & Trudy's, makes a great drive-in style "loose meat" burger. We've been known to order a dozen to go, on top of the ones we're eating while we're there. Here are a few pictures of the place. (The "Chuck" in the second picture is Chuck Boller, across-the-creek neighbor, former owner/publisher of the paper I work for, and the man whose very large shoes I'm trying to fill on the local sports beat.) Hey, let's hear some more entries from Buffalo. I'm sitting here trying to remember the last burger I had there that wasn't at a tailgate, and I'm coming up with a blank. I need some suggestions ...

I've been to the one on 410 (I think its near 410 & Broadway) - it was pretty good, but I'd put it fourth in SA, behind: 1.) Bracken 2.) Biff Buzbys 3.) Chris Madrid's 4.) Chester's

Biff Buzbys 3.) Chris Madrid's 4.) Chester's I'd agree with that ranking. I guess Chesters has a cool saloon-type atmosphere that makes it kind of a cool place and the 50+ choice of beers isn't bad either.

Sounded good - bacon/cheese/mushrooms/onions - but lost something in the transition from the menu to the plate. Ah well... You should have told me you were coming here, even just to change planes...I could have made a Five Guys run for you. Those are the best burgers I've ever had, and the closest one is about a three-iron from my office.
DrFishfinder Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 I nominate the Bracken Store Cafe, near San Antonio: They are thick as hell, juicy, and LOADED with cheese. http://www.brackenstore.com/ At Paul Weber's up in Orillia, Ontario. Not really "the" best Cheesburger, but since my dad and I would always stop there on the way up to Lake Cecebe for our annual week of fishing in Canada, it sure seemed like the best because it was the best of times. Here's to you, dad!!!!

Buffalo Brew Pub (made with Angus and cooked to order. Always delicious)
plenzmd1 Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 the two best cheesburgers are in order #1) The one at 4.00 AM, greasier the better (well now midnight for me) #2) The one at 9.00 AM when your head is pounding form the night before, and as above, greasier the better

I actually paid $40 extra to connect through Cleveland (and avoid Newark).
Golden Wheels Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 This pub in Somerville, Mass. serves burgers that are made with a half a pound of meat. R.F. O'Sullivans BURP
