TripAdvisor has posted a list of what its survey says are the 10 Best Burgers in the U.S., and 6 out of 10 are located “out west” of the Mississippi. Of the others, one is in St. Paul MN on the east bank of the river; the others are two in Florida and one in Kentucky.
Gumbo knows it’s easy to get a good argument going on burgers (especially if you don’t worship California’s In-and-Out Burger) but you can take a look and make your own decisions HERE
The best burger of my life was at a food court, a very nice one to be sure, at an upscale mall in Roseville, CA, near Sacramento, possibly the last place on earth one might expect a spectacular anything, but there you have it. I wasn’t even there by choice, accompanied a mall-going friend. And I almost never eat burgers, it was just my lucky day. I’d like to go again but I’m afraid to find out it may have been a once-in-a-lifetime score.
