Best Damned Burger In the Area?

[Crothian]

Yup, German Village, but it's worth the drive..

It's a haul for me too - live/work in the Polaris area, but I'll make the trip a couple of times a year just for the burger.

Just make sure you are hungry if you try it.

Where in the Polaris area? I only ask because I'm just south of Lazzelle road myself

I had a fine burger the other day at Monk's, on Lake St. in the Chicago Loop. Reading this thread made me do it.

Amen to this! It's amazing how few burger joints I've been to carried Tabasco (or equivalent) and crushed red pepper.

Mmmmmm...Tabasco....Tabasco good on damn near everything.

That's why I put them in the burgers I make myself. I have been told by every person that has had one that I should be selling them. Get myself a grill and a vendors license and sell em on a corner. If I did I would probably be able to buy a house with the profits...

But if you did then you'd just be responsible for painting it and that means selling MORE burgers! Bah! Who needs the hassle!

I must not be very picky. I find it HARD to make a bad burger; I've had plenty of fast food burgers and sit-down burgers are decent.

In my state probably some of the best chain-style burgers that I've had are burgers from Apollo burger (I believe it's a Utah thing). They make a signature Pastrami burger that is VERY good.

The most overrated burger place (in Utah at least) is The Training Table. It's a sit down burger place without a server. You call your order on a telephone, then they call you when it's done to pick it up. The burger is OKAY, but nothing to write home about.

Baby back ribs, I can never find a place that makes them decent. I had a few chain style ribs and I had fond appreciation for my oven ribs.
