    The Five Guys in Athens is decent. They don't cook to order, which is a shame, because I like 'em to bleed a little. They have free peanuts, which is pretty cool.

    I used to eat at 5 Guys all the time when they 1st came to NC. Great burgers, but as time went on i noticed the size of their beef patties got a little smaller and they raised their prices. That was enough for me to stop eating there

    Sos a couple weeks back I was down at the Blind Pig, where I watch Jets games. I'm into my 3rd or 4th PBR, when suddenly I get this awkward sensation. Not as awkward as, say, masturbating in front of your grandparents -- but damn near close!

    I was BURGIN'

    Sos I signal to the waitress by screeching out my loudest velociraptor call, and she brings me a menu. As I'm perusing the burg section, I noticed something I hadn't seen before -- a burg called "The Memphis". It's a bacon cheeseburg with peanut butter on it! It looked a little something like this, but with bacon slices and smothered with cheese . . .

    I asked the waitress if it was a typo, she said no, and that people love it. Me being a person, I decided to give it a try -- if only for novelty sake. Remember, I was burgin', so I wasn't really in my right mind to begin with.

    Well, when I finally tried it, I was a bit disappointed -- not because it was bad, but because it was average. I was expecting this life changing burg -- and that I would freak out over it. I do recommend giving one a try, if you are feeling adventurous.

    i could see how that would be disappointing. i would expect something like that to be either awesome or the worst thing ever. average would be a disappointment.

    Scrugs, you must have been baaadly Burgin to try that out.

    Having said that the use of a Satay peanut sauce could be explored, for a bit of Asian style Burgin if there is such a thing

    and love the new rating system

    Holy Cow.

    I have to make a pilgrimage to that place. I think I can slam a Quad -- If that reporter can do it, I know I can. I just need to fast for a day, and smoke a huge spliff before hand!

    I used to go peanut butter BURGIN at the NCO club on this military garrison in Seoul. They had buffalo burgers, like yeah real buffalo meat. I'd get a triple Buffalo burger (1/4 pound patties) and slather that mofo with PB. Good shit.

    True true.

    We'll be at the Buffalo's on Alps this Sunday though. There's a big party room in the back where you can yell creative swears at the TV. The beer is mega cheap too.

    The burgin thread gets bumped at just the right time. I was burgin today but I needed this thread to inspire me to do something about it.

    So I went back to Burgerlicious and had a classic burger, with beetroot.
    Very nice. All Aussie burgers need a slice of canned beetroot. No photo sorry.

    Anyway, I give it 4 Schalk Burgers out of 5

    I've been hung over as hell today, so I decided to get something greasy. Indeed, I picked up a Baconator -- The Burg' that started it all!

    And believe me, it's as huge now, as it was then -- I may have to puke later.

    Looking at those Angry Whopper commercials, I was tempted to try one and was greatly disappointed by the hotness of this burger however I will say that the burger was tasty and I may get another one on one of my commutes.
