Anyone who knows me well knows that I am not much of a red-meat eater. I pretty much stick to chicken, turkey, fish, and the occasional pork product (mainly when I am ordering Mexican because I cannot resist a carnitas taco). However, about once a year, I experience an undeniable craving for a burger. You may be thinking, you must eat a burger more than once a year! And honestly, I will never order one. Every now and then, during the summer or on the 4th of July, my family will be having a cookout and I will have one, but that is the only exception. And I would like to disclaim, it is not a health thing, because let’s be real, if that is what I was concerned about, I probably wouldn’t eat my body weight in chips and guac weekly. I just genuinely never crave them… until I do.
Last weekend, I was watching some mukbangs on YouTube, as one does… and the vlogger ordered a bunch of massive burgers with bacon, fired onions, cheese, BBQ sauce, you name it! All of the sudden, I texted my housemates and told them that I HAD to have Five Guys this week. We planned it so that on Wednesday night we would order. It would be a little something to look forward to in the middle of the week.
Flash forward to Wednesday night at about 6:30, and I had one bacon cheeseburger, with lettuce, tomato, pickles and ketchup in front of me with a side of cajun fries. P.s. If you go to Five Guys and DON’T get the cajun fries, you are a monster… just saying. Anyways, I went in for that first bite and it was everything I wanted it to be, juicy, saucy, crunchy, cheesy… needless to say, I was one happy foodie. Then of course once I finished my burger, I had an outrageous amount of fries to get through, because Five Guys has a generous hand when it comes to servings. It was so delicious, and I can’t wait until about a year from now when I have the urge to burger again!
