San Antonio Burger Rankings

1. Chris Madrid's: Not an "everyday burger". Eating too many of these would kill you. It's a trophy burger.
   
2. Five Guys Burgers & Fries: Very good burgers served in a brown paper bag with abundant fries. Many different free toppings to choose from. Also, this place has bags and bags of peanuts to munch on while waiting for your food.
   
3. Chester's Hamburger Company: Good "everyday burger". Get the green chile cheeseburger for something different.
   
4. The Cove: I got the Texas Burger last time I ate at The Cove. It was full of flavor. They have a wide selection of burgers with unusual and high quality ingredients. Plus, you could do your laundry or wash your car before or after you eat. It's a favorite of The Current crowd.
   
5. Timbo's: Really good, big burgers. Get the Shypoke Eggs and/or the Poppers and Coins. Skip the fries and get tater tots.
   
6. Big'z Burger Joint: This place is really good. Sit outside on the covered deck and watch all the kids run around and play.
   
7. Bunsen Burger: Good burgers with a sci fi theme. Get a milkshake and the sweet potato fries.
   
8. Whataburger: The best fast food burger in town.
   
9. Biff Buzby's Burgers: They have sweet buns and free beans (for some reason). Get the tater tots. It has an aviation theme. Lots of military people frequent this place.

Fuddruckers would have made the list but I've heard they filed for bankruptcy.

"Big Farm" Link

We had a discussion at lunch about how food could/should be grown/raised. The above article is spot on. We couldn't raise enough food to feed people if we didn't use "factory" farming methods.

Charlie Brown Chicken

I had the Charlie Brown Chicken off of Chuy's special Green Chile Festival menu today. It was really good. It was pan fried with a crushed pumpkin seed crust and a green chile sauce.

Here's their Green Chile Festival menu:

That menu goes away on Sept 14th. I'm going to have to make a couple more trips out to Chuy's before then.
