Just got back from Dallas, had a great burger at the Rodeo Goat. They're in the Top 10 on TA for Dallas and they have a great burger menu, plus they'll sub any of their burgers for turkey AND they have a great beer selection. Everything you could want, basically.

I was in Vegas over the weekend and had an awesome burger at Michael Mina 's restaurant. ..Pub 1842.
I know it sounds weird but was amazing. It had peanut butter, potato chips, pimento cheese and onion jam.
Sorry about the sideways pic.

Still my favorite burger is Kuma's Corner in Chicago. This place is a bar with approximately 10 additional tables with screaming loud head-banger music. They open at 11:00 most days and people (of every age group) start lining up for their burgers at 10:00 a.m. We usually plan a mid-week trip and go about 2:00 p.m. **This place is rated one of the top 10 burgers in the United States.

If you don't want to wait in line, head about 3.5 hours south and hit the Indy outpost of Kuma's. I've had both and while the Chicago atmosphere can't be easily replicated, the food was just as expected without an insane wait. The Ghost burger they had a few weeks back was one of the best I've ever had.

The Kuma:s in Indy is just as good, lots of beer, ring in nose employees, with lots of tats, and pleanty of heavy metal...but you can eat outside, or walk across the street to the fire station,,,

Rather than being sandwiched between two regular buns, this four-patty burger is held together by two grilled cheese sandwiches.

Regardless of exact composition, the layer count and "buns" are most impressive. Now to figure out a justification for a trip to Alberta or Ontario.

Went to Indy's Kuma's Corner yesterday...had the goat cheese one. Meh, but I dug the pretzel bun idea. Decent frites, too.
