Well, we've up and done it.

{Barry White voice}: ahhhhhhh….. yeahhhhhhh.

As we mentioned yesterday on our travel recap of Charleston, we ate the ultimate burger. Come to think about it, we might just knight the darn thing. We dub thee, Sir Burger of Burgers. Hey, doesn’t every girl need a knight in shiny, soft-centered, juicy cheese? Wait. That could be weird.

But fo’ reals. What is it about a juicy ol’ burger that makes us weak in the knees? Is it the meaty burger itself? Or the toppings? Or is it simply, the satisfaction of comfort food? Anytime we see a burger on the menu, whether it’s dipped in foie gras or in it’s purest form – cheese, lettuce, and tomato, we become giddy. We have true admiration for the burger. Why? Because a burger doesn’t judge. A burger is like an old friend. You may not order it every time you are at restaurant, but when you do, it’s like nothing has changed. It loves you no matter what…even if you ate a veggie burger! (wink, wink).

So, you could imagine our excitement when we stumbled upon our old Southern friend while in Charleston. This burger is not for the faint at heart. Hello, fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese, and BACON! Okay, riddle us this batman. How is it that we're 30 years old and just now trying pimento cheese? We feel like they should be handing out samples in the maternity wing of the hospital or something. We mean, who needs ketchup and mustard when you could have a condiment of cheddar cheese mixed with mayo and peppers? Am we right? Right.

After devouring this bad boy, we knew the second we touched down in Denver we had to recreate this burger. Instead of making fried green tomatoes (we figured we'd best leave that to the folks of the South), we sliced up some heirloom tomatoes, kept the bacon, and pimento cheese, but we doubled the trucker. It’s like a mountain of juicy goodness. Because don’t they say, two is better than one?

We rest our case.
