Redamak’s: A Legend Revisited

Redamak’s: A Legend Revisited

The Michigan city of New Buffalo describes itself as “a modern but quaint shoreline resort community.”  It’s located in the very corner where the states of Indiana and Michigan meet up with Lake Michigan.  There are just barely over 2,000 residents.  It’s the kind of place that’s absolutely hopping for half of the year, and [...]

Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf: 2 Out of 3 Ain’t Bad

Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf: 2 Out of 3 Ain’t Bad

I ran across a recipe for Paula Deen’s Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf, I thought maybe I’d been too hard on her. Maybe she’s different. I mean, break it down word-by-word. Bacon? Um, yeah. Cheeseburger? Of course. Meatloaf?

Minor League Burger is a Grand Slam

Minor League Burger is a Grand Slam

Minor League Baseball’s West Michigan Whitecaps are having a decent season.  They’re solidly in second place within their division in the Midwest League, ahead of rivals like the Great Lakes Loons and Lansing Lugnuts.  But what’s really packing fans into Fifth Third Ballpark in Comstock Park, MI isn’t necessarily what’s on the field.
It’s what’s on [...]

The Ultimate Cheeseburger – Delish to a Fault; Always in Style

The Ultimate Cheeseburger – Delish to a Fault; Always in Style

Like it or not, it’s become almost impossible to discuss burger greatness without discussing beef. Round or sirloin? Chuck or round? Round versus chuck? How thick should it be? When should it be salted? Oh, and yes, what should you cook it over, or in?

Cheeseburger, in the Time of Heartbreak

Cheeseburger, in the Time of Heartbreak

Once upon a time, I thought the no-fuss, no-frills cheeseburgers my Aunt Cassey made were the best in the world.
Then, I followed the angry, young musician I’d been dating at the time to Manchester, Connecticut. He went to chase inspiration; I went because he went, and it seemed like a good idea at the time. [...]

Got One Burger Too Many?

I suppose this rarely happens, but what if, one of these days, you order one too many cheeseburger and find yourself unable to finish them off? What will you do with those splendid stacks of meat and cheese?

Sex and Your Cheeseburger

Sex and Your Cheeseburger

How do you eat a cheeseburger? If you’re female, gorgeous, and starving, you sit on a brownstone stoop with your legs spread just so, hike up your dress, and eat your cheeseburger like you’d just grown super flexible muscles in your mouth.

A Mac By Any Other Name

A Mac By Any Other Name

So, Todd finally found the courage to pop his Big Mac cherry. In honor of that occasion, let’s talk Big Mac.
You know what your Big Mac is made of. It’s made of patties, onions, iceberg lettuce, American cheese, pickles, and a special “Mac” sauce. But that’s the Big Mac you know; what about the Big [...]

Cheeseburger and the President

Cheeseburger and the President

But I’ll have to admit, each time I think of Obama snacking on a cheeseburger while worrying over how to secure the financial freedom of the freeworld, I feel a forlorn little gurgle in my belly and I tear up. Can’t a man enjoy his cheeseburger in privacy?

Cracker Barrel: Miles Ahead of Expectations

Cracker Barrel: Miles Ahead of Expectations

With almost 600 locations in 41 states, they are, indeed, just about everywhere. Truth be told, I associate Cracker Barrel with “road trip food” more than perhaps any other restaurant chain anywhere.

There’s No “I” in “Juicy”

There’s No “I” in “Juicy”

I first heard of the Jucy Lucy on the Travel Channel series Man v. Food.  It’s a specialty burger in Minneapolis that has a slab of cheese stuffed into the burger itself.  According to the story, one day back in the 1950s, a customer ordered a cheeseburger and asked to have the cheese encased inside [...]

Can “Billions and Billions” Be Wrong?

I need to get something off my chest. A confession of sorts. It’s not an easy thing for a cheeseburger fanatic to admit. I don’t know how you’ll take it. I’m not sure what you’ll think of me after I tell you. Okay, here it is:
I’ve never had a Big [...]

40 on Steak

Is 40 a magic number?
Jesus fasted in the wilderness for 40 days and nights. The dead are mourned for 40 days in Christian and Muslin cultures. A woman is pregnant for 40 weeks. Ali Baba had to hide from 40 thieves. And, you have to get 40 winks, before you’re said to have enjoyed a [...]

Til Cheeseburger Do You Part

Til Cheeseburger Do You Part

There aren’t many wedding statements that will creep me out. After all, I spent the better part of adolescent life wearing a mullet. When you wear a mullet, you grow a tolerance for just about everything, even for beer bellies and Bai Ling.
But a cheeseburger for a wedding cake?
That’s where I draw the line, folks. [...]

The “Grate” Cheese Experiment

The “Grate” Cheese Experiment

A few months ago, I stumbled across a new recipe for grilled cheeseburgers.  It called for mixing grated cheese with raw ground beef before grilling instead of simply melting a slice of cheese atop a plain burger after cooking.

It bordered on blasphemy.  “Cheesing” a burger (if I may use it as a verb) as it [...]

Boil In A Can Cheeseburger

Boil In A Can Cheeseburger – The research required to write this page involved searching for the “history of canning” on google and learning that canning food was state of the art military technology in 1810. Some 200 years later we have the cheeseburger in a can, just boil to enjoy.
