If you think you’re up for their Lucy Challenge, invite me along when you give it a shot. I do not want to miss that.

Eat two one-pound Lucifer’s, with two pounds of fries, and a bowl of coleslaw within 30 minutes and it’s Free!

Good luck!

Check it out!

They say that they’re riffing on the “Classic Juicy Lucy” so, based on the spelling, that would be a riff on the 5-8 Club’s version.

This is quite possibly the most patriotic of all Lucys with an American Flag on top. The lettuce, tomato, and onion much be for garnish, since they don’t belong on a Lucy (and would make it hard to avoid a blow-out).

Quality meat. Awesome cheese both inside and out. A toasted bun. It really came together to create a great Lucy experience.

The Fries: I upgraded to the Parmesan truffle fries, figuring that I’m already skipping my mortgage payment this month to pay for the burger, so what the heck. They were awesome as well.

The total:

Blowing past $20 with tip (without beer). That’s impressive.

This isn’t an every day priced Lucy, but is worth checking out on special occasions, like wedding proposals.

It seems pretty clear that the anonymous editor was not writing from a neutral point of view, since they also included this self-promotional line:

That line didn’t last long, but the story of origin remains switched, without citation, 2 weeks later.

Should the 5-8 Club (or Matt’s) have proof that they did indeed invest the Juicy Lucy, they should include a link to that within Wikipedia.

This burger is more than great. Once again, we take a half-pound patty of fresh, free range beef and fill it with Gruyere cheese and braised short ribs, right before we seal it in we then drizzle a red wine reduction over it. After being lovingly prepared by our expert kitchen staff and hand delivered by one of our fine servers you will bite into one of the most amazing combinations of meat and cheese to date. This burger deserves nothing less than a side of beer-battered green beans and a pint of cold beer to wash it down.

That’s a long reach from Matt’s Bar’s original, but I wouldn’t kick it out of bed for eating crackers.

Delish is a MSN property, so there has been speculation that Microsoft is attempting to steal and rebrand the Jucy Lucy into something one could put in a box with stickers and sell to CTOs through VARs with a service contract. But we here at Jucy Lucy Restaurants can spot a fake when we see it.

Down with the Inside Out Cheeseburger. Love live the Lucy!

If we’re talking about foods and beverages, let me take you around the Big Ten. Michigan provides some outstanding beer from Bells Brewery; Wisconsin gives us brats, the New Glarus Brewery, and cheese (sooooo much cheese); Illinois and Northwestern bring the Goose Island Brewery, deep dish pizza, and Vienna beef hot dogs; Minnesota’s got the Juicy Lucy; Iowa’s got Meth and grain alcohol; and Pennsylvania’s got Yuengling Beer. As far as Indiana and Ohio, they provide nothing of value other than a chili enema from Skyline Chili. Blech… The rest of us cancel them out, so I think over all we’re bringing something good to the table.

Solid analysis, Jon. Now that you’re in the Big 10, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to savor Jucy Lucy’s during your trips to Minneapolis.
