(Community Matters) Texas Monthly named their cheeseburger with green chiles on a jalapeno-cheese bun the #3 best burger in Texas.
Alamo Springs Cafe in Fredericksburg. It’s a bit off the beaten path. I’d nearly left Fredericksburg (I’d already purchased a dark chocolate macaroon from Rather Sweets) when I decided I couldn’t drive through without testing the #3 burger in the state according to Texas Monthly. And, I’ll admit up front, I cheated a wee bit, I added avacado. How was it? glorious – I haven’t juried all the burger places yet, but it doesn’t surprise me it was named #3. My waitress told me business has doubled since the article. I was thinking this morning, I might even be able to convince Kip Keller, Michael Barnes & Steven to drive out there. They need to try it, and I want another fix. Of course, if we do, shouldn’t we simultaneously try #40 at Classic Burgers and Moore in Kerrville?
Last week, Michael, Robert & I returned to Goode Company Hamburgers and Taqueria in Houston (#45). Earlier in the week, I had #44 @ Port Aransas Brewing Company. I’d identified Hico’s Koffee Kup Jalepeno & cream cheese burger (#41) as a star early this summer. And, I sorta grew up on the Chicken Oil Company’s snuffy burgers (#22) while attending Texas A&M.
