Really enjoyed this last year.

I'm either going to start off with City Pork or Olive or Twist this evening.

Went to Burgersmith for my first one of the week.

Description: Signature Burgersmith ground beef topped with sweet pickled cabbage, swiss cheese, creole mustard and a cage-free organic fried egg. Served on a pretzel bun.

I was not a fan of this. The person I went with enjoyed his. This is going to be one of those that people either hate or love it due to the sweet pickled cabbage.

Thanks for posted this as I had forgotten all about it. I did three last year. I may beat that this year! I'll report back with some reviews

I saw this thread last year. The guy who had burgers for lunch and dinner the entire week was very intriguing.

Lol that was me. Here is the LINK
Not doing every meal this time around because I will be out of town Wednesday and Thursday. Someone else needs to step up and do it... for science...

Likely going to hit up Olive or Twist for lunch, will likely get the burger unless their daily special sounds better.

Went to OoT last night. The burger was definitely better than the hockey puck they served last year.

Yeah, just got back to the office... really good burger at OoT, the caramelized onions were a great topping.

I had a really good burger there a few months ago, but a few years back had the same hockey puck experience. Glad they fixed that issue.

Just went to Mason's for lunch for the "Fatty Melt". This one was deliciously delightful, contrasting sharply with my gross pickled cabbage burger at Burgersmith yesterday.

Half pound beef patty, smothered with grilled onions and sandwiched between two grilled cheese sandwiches.

Google the title of this thread.

I went to Willie's last night. It has pulled pork and a creole cream cheese sauce. It was really good.

Had the mac and cheese burger from Barcadia last night.

Still debating where to go tonight.

I went to Willie's on Monday and had that burger. I really liked the spicy cream cheese and the pulled pork addition to the burger. I would eat it again.

But on Tuesday I had the Fatty Melt at Mason's. This may be my favorite burger that I have ever had. The crispness and butteriness of the grilled cheese sandwich melded with the grilled onions and the meat really put this burger over the top for me. I would eat this burger as often as my wife would allow it. Unfortunately, that would not be very often.

Tonight I plan to hit Beausoleil. I am undecided as to how I will finish out the week.

Only went to 4 places so far this week but here's my rankings.

Overall:
1. City Pork: perfect bacon, forgot to tell them no ketchup, still absolutely delicious and with a heavily peppered patty.

2. Voodoo BBQ: Highly underrated burger. Smoked patty, mojo BBQ is perfect with beef.

3. Barcadia: Mac and cheese was very cheesy and stayed on the burger. Bacon was chewy. Bonus points for fries included. Patty was well seasoned and medium and not overdone.

4. Your Mom's: Decent, mac and cheese fell off at first bite, good not great patty. Good crispy bacon on burger.

I had Lava Cantina's for lunch yesterday. It was only three coworkers and I in the restaurant. It took about 45 mins to come out. It tasted good, but the two patties were a good bit smaller than the bun. I would have preferred one large patty that matches the bun.
