Burger Crew meeting called to order on Sunday, Sept 16, 2018 at 12pm (Trevor’s pick).
Members in attendance: Angela d., Trevor Y., Wayne T., and Innie C.
Members not in attendance: You know the one.
I. Ordering
Trangela: Double bacon burger with chili fries
Innie: Lava burger with zucchini fries
Wayne: Colossal burger with onion rings
II. The burgers
The burgers were very meh. The patties were very thin, so thin that Innie’s tomato slice was twice as thick as the patty. The patties were also dry with not much beefy flavor. It reminded Angela of burgers that you would get at a backyard party. The lack of pickles in the burgers was also noticeable. Everyone liked the buns, which were gooey and sweet, and the thousand island sauce was good. The bacon was crispy, and the pastrami in Wayne’s burger was not bad for pastrami in a burger. Innie’s burger had pickled jalapenos, which she enjoyed but they weren’t distributed evenly around the burger.
III. The sides
Ranch was necessary for the onion rings and fried zucchini because they were unseasoned. The zucchinis were too thin to retain enough zucchini flavor. The onion rings were nice and crispy but also very thin. The chili fries were ok; the chili itself was of the pasty variety and not too salty.
IV. Miscellaneous
The stand has no indoor seating, only covered seating outside, and we were constantly harassed by flies. There were many cars taking advantage of the drive thru so it seems like a popular place for picking up food. Restrooms were also only outdoors. The menu didn’t have descriptions of the burgers, only their names, so it’s not immediately apparent what’s inside of each burger.
V. Value
As far as how much everyone would pay for the burgers that they ordered, it ranged from $2.50 to $4.50, so as far as value goes, the burgers were slightly overpriced in our opinion.
VI. The verdict
The ratings out of 5 ranged from 2.2 to 2.3, so everyone was pretty consistent in their disappointment. Thicker and beefier patties would’ve helped immensely.
