He has traveled across the country in search of the best burger joints—those that have survived outside the fast-food burger mainstream—and has documented the rich histories and “local color” behind them all. Hamburger America features 100 of the best roadside stands, nostalgic diners, mom ‘n’ pop establishments, and college-town favorites—all with full-color photographs showing the unique burgers—and the places and people behind them!
Some of the joints that made this essential “list” are:
Solly’s Grille in Milwaukee, WI: Home of the famous “Butter Burger.” For over 70 years, they’ve been making a burger that features copious amounts of creamy Wisconsin butter.
Ted’s in Meriden, CT: Burgers are never grilled, but rather steamed in a unique contraption. Combine the steamed burger with Ted’s special “mystery” cheese, and the result is a delicious taste medley!
Dyer’s of Memphis, TN: This famous Deep-Fried Hamburger is made by taking ground beef, smashing it paper thin…then submerging it in a skillet of “seasoned” grease! Whoa!
Hamburger America will inspire any meat lover to gas up the car and take a road-trip in search of these taste experiences. The list includes specific addresses and phone numbers of each establishment, so travelers can plan accordingly.
