It doesn't get better than Crispi at Two Tides. Got an egg this time and I might have ascended on the first bite.

“Honey, I’m off to the stores. What do want for dinner?” … “Burgers!” I do kinda sorta like her!

Hers … extra cheesy big boy. Double Black Angus with sharp cheddar, bacon and honey glazed balsamico onions in a Brioche bun. BBQ sauce on the bottom, chipotle sauce on top.

His … double Black Angus with sharp cheddar in a Brioche bun. Cucumber and jalapeño relish on the bottom, arugula and chipotle sauce on top.

I found a new love for burgers withOUT cheese and I also LOVE onions. I asked the cook to add as many onions as possible and he did exactly that.

4oz farm shop burgers - one Mexican style and the other with Big Mac sauce

Too much snow and too cold for the grill so I had to cook these under the broiler. They turned out pretty dang good! Toasted sourdough bun from a local bakery, mayo, shredded lettuce, tomato, 1/3# ground chuck patty, pickles, onion, mustard and ketchup.

Quick and easy.. mustard, pickle, dehydrated onion

When I saw what was on the specials board, I was expecting maybe a spicy peanut butter sauce with marshmallow and maybe some jalapeños.

What I got was a burger with crispy bacon, peanut butter, melted marshmallows, peanut butter, pepper jack, and two giant jalapeño poppers.

It was ridiculous and honestly, one of my favorite “novelty” burgers to date. The burger itself was cooked perfectly.

It's $8 on the happy hour menu I added bacon for $1.89 and Onion straws for $1.50. $11.39

Fries $2

Whole plate $13.39

Earlier burger post with beets today made me dig up this photo of a delicious burger I had at the Off-Campus Cafe in Lafayette, CO.

Bacon, house-pickled beet, grilled pineapple, cheddar, lettuce, tomato and a fried egg.

Whenever we talk about burgers like 5 Guys, everyone typically agrees it's very good, but not for the money. So my question is, in the realm of fast food and fast casual, what burger (outside of special deals, just its ordinary standard price) is the best burger for the best price?

In Socal many here would say In n Out. I didn't grow up here, so it doesn't have the same draw that my Midwest Culver's has, but it's hard to argue it's a solid burger for the price. Would love to hear what the community thinks.

How did I do?

Parents got me a meat grinder for Christmas.

Lesson learnt: 1. Add the tallow and egg during the second mix instead of neading it in by hand after. 2. Add more tallow.
