This is not a burger review. This is just burger awesome. This one is entitled “Burger Hip Hop 1″. I’m betting the sequel is just as good… MotionElements Stock Footage Hat tip to my buddy Joseph for pointing me to the YouTube video that led me to track down this piece of film history :)

Playground Burger – The Playground – Santa Ana, CA

Rodney — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:59:19 +0000

THE JOINT The Playground is the brainchild of Chef Jason Quinn, whose gourmet food truck The Lime Truck won of season 2 of FoodNetwork’s The Great Food Truck Race.

Yumminy Burger – Hitching Post 2 – Buellton, CA

Rodney — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 19:26:57 +0000

THE JOINT Hitching Post 2 is nice little family owned steakhouse located along the central coast of California. If you hadn’t already heard about it (from a recommendation or the film Sideways), you’d probably never go there. The charming city of Buellton that it resides in is not on the main picturesque Highway 1 route like its [...]

Rodney — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:32:27 +0000

THE JOINT When people talk burgers in Sacramento, inevitably Jamie’s Broadway Grille generally enters the conversation like when Star Wars comes up when people talk about movies. It’s just a give that everyone has tried it. I was out of the loop for awhile, so I recently had to remedy being the only person in town who [...]

Their claim to fame being their signature 50/50® burger patty that is a blend of 50% ground beef and 50% ground bacon. My family and I [...]

Niman Ranch Burger – Rustic Canyon Wine Bar and Seasonal Kitchen

Rodney — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 19:52:36 +0000

THE JOINT My wife and I recently went on an anniversary road trip down the coast of California. Since I was tasked with the planning of the trip, I figured that gave me a little creative license to make sure each romantic destination was near a good (burger) restaurant.

Thursdays are about to be a bit more burgerly thanks to the new Burger Thursday’s going on at de Vere’s Irish Pub. After the success of #sacburgermonth, one of the key takeaways was that Sacramento LOVES burgers! The customers (and even employees) at de Vere’s kept asking what the next featured burger would be, so Henry [...]

Denver Burger Battle 2011 review, recap and relishing the memories

Rodney — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 01:19:06 +0000

Now that I’ve awoken from my self-induced burger coma, I can tell you about the trip I took last month to burger nirvana. In August I flew from Sacramento, California to Denver, Colorado just to eat burgers. First I questioned the decision. Really, am I going to take a trip JUST for a few burgers? Then I figured: [...]
