Giveaway – Battle of the Burger 2016

August 1, 2016 by Jennifer Che 28 Comments

Battle of the Burger 2016
Hi Friends!

If you’ve been reading this blog for some time, you’ll know that  I’m a pretty big fan of burgers. I’ve talked about burgers a lot on this blog, trying all sorts of places both local and far away (like, for example, one of Boston’s most iconic burgers, the burger that became so hard-to-get they had to take it off of the menu and only serve it at the bar, or many, many, other excellent burger joints across this country).

I’m thrilled to announce that the 5th annual Battle of the Burger 2016 will be happening Wednesday, August 10th.

25 different Boston restaurants will compete for the top spot. Guests can sample burgers from all the competitors and vote for their favorites. A portion of the ticket proceeds will benefit non-profit partner Family Reach.

Below are some pertinent details:

    Wow this looks really appetizing! Favorite burger in Boston is from Bartley’s, mainly for its nostalgia.

    My favorite burger in Boston is definitely at Russel House Tavern in Harvard Square. The bun they use is so good!

    I used to live in LA and they really know how to do burgers in LA so it’s hard to judge Boston because it’s not the same … But we will eventually get there. The best burger I’ve had in Boston is Mr. Bartley’s. Yumm! Iove their creative burgers and names. I want some now 🙂

    Build your own burger at Boston Burger company. I always add sautéed mushrooms and a fried egg. I love a fried egg on my burger and find it hard to eat one without now!

    The Cellar Burger! Always a juicy, well seasoned, classic with the slightest twist a la arugula and aioli. Hardier than Tasty Burger but not so big that I can’t comfortably gobble down the perfect truffle fries that come with.

    Went to Little Donkey in Central last week and fell in love with their burger (dry-aged beef burger topped with jalapeño potato chips, Buffalo pickles, foie gras, and onion soup mayo). I haven’t stopped taking about it since. Everything I had there was great but the burger was on another level.

    My favorite Boston burgers don’t come from any restaurant, my roommate makes them. They’re typically over-cooked and over-seasoned, malformed in such a way that they shrink on the grill into small, misshapen ovals. At some point, for reasons lost to time, someone christened them “Bucky Balls.” For several years we had barbecues nearly every weekend and he would make a batch.

    I don’t claim to be a true connoisseur, but for all the renowned burgers in the area I’ve tried, I wouldn’t take any over his. Nothing beats those warm summer nights, surrounded by friends, talking and joking, everyone filling up on chips and eagerly waiting for the latest Bucky Balls.

    I do have a soft spot for the Son of Shojonator though.
