Yet another demonstration of the Ron Theorem: If the building looks bad and the prices are low,…read morethen the food is awesome. That's Mr. Burger.
Christmas came around, and I'm one of those guys who says that the holiday is about Jesus and not about shopping. No presents, please. So I got a present . . . from me . . . and it was a cheeseburger. The day before, I was searching for a non-franchised large cheeseburger, ended up in Silsbee, and suddenly saw a food truck. It was Mr. Burger. Obviously, I didn't eat it then; I wrapped it up and put it in the refrigerator, then under the tree the next morning. When I ate it a few days later, I fell in love. Two STRONG char-broiled patties, tasty bacon, the right amount of tomato - I think it just knocked Santa Cruz's Betty Burger out of the top spot.
I am writing this on my 29th (again) birthday, and the Hunny asked "Where would you like to eat?" I've been in trouble with her for years, it goes with being a married man, so I picked five possibilities. Mr. Burger's permanent spot, in Beaumont's ghetto, was one of them. She and the girl were okay with going there. So I had the honor of introducing them to Mr. Burger a few hours ago.
They both had cheeseburger with fries for $10. "Oooh, it's a toasted bun!" (the girl) They both wolfed their burgers & fries down quickly, got full, and this cheeseburger became the highlight of their day. The girl wants to come here again. I asked what was on Loaded Fries, and got the answer: beef & chicken fajita meat, white and green onion, tomatoes, covered with cheese. No cheeseburger for me, I'm trying the Loaded Fries. And I'm iffy on fries. These fries were pretty soft, but everything else on it made this incredibly good, a meal to remember. It doesn't look large, but it fills you up; most people wouldn't be able to finish it in one sitting.
Mr. Burger is absolutely worth driving at least a mile off the Eastex Freeway. If you love your beef, you're likely to love Mr. Burger. It's probably the best burger in the Coonie Triangle, and you can quote me on that.
