You know the key attributes of a great burger. You’re thinking juicy big meat, warm hearty bread, fresh veggies, topped with the right sauce. A great burger is truly a work of art. If you read this often you are well aware we have Andy Warhol Burger King working out in dreadful WLR. Yes, he works at Big Orange in Promenade.
I went out west just before the holiday season for a visit, a fix for that glamorous burger they serve. As I entered Big Orange I noticed the specials board. In bright chalk was written CHILI BURGER. I know there must be an evil genius in the kitchen because that’s exactly what I was craving and evil geniuses think alike.
As I was seated a sweet little stoner came to take the order. I browsed the beer list and thought I was dreaming. A couple months back I was out in Seattle and I was convinced I’d discovered the best damn gluten free beer on Earth, made by Omission. Fast forward to Big Orange and what do you know, Omission Pilsner is staring me down. I ordered a few.
Once the beer was in hand the sweet stoner girl took my Chili Burger order, japs and mustard involved. You know Big Orange is a well oiled machine, the food came out quick. It was a beautiful burger. Its size and shape were that of a Pedigree Hound. The aroma more satisfying than a tamale shop. It made a beautiful PBM. The Big Orange operators are on point.
What do you think of this place? Can you name a more consistent delicious burger? Do you love bacon? Want to collaborate? Got any big ideas? Wanna be friends? Let me know in the comments.
