Top 4 Burgers and Burger Joints in Texas

Home’sCool was not paid or asked for the shameless plugs in this section.

We’ve polled the crew, recorded the best results, and now we’re bringing them to you! Tales of flavor-packed, custom made and all-around delicious burgers ahead! Some of these places are located only in Texas, so be sure to stop by if you’re ever in town! Some others, however can be located in several different states, depending on where you’re located. Bon Appétit!

The Bronson Burger,

My mom’s favorite is a wood fired, handmade burger with cheddar cheese, smoked bacon, grilled onions, grilled jalapenos, lettuce, tomatoes and pickle with house dressing on a toasted poppy seed bun. This burger is full of flavor and is a must if you happen to be in Keller TX, which is its only location.

250 S Main St, Keller, TX 76248

The Bacon Bleu Cheese Burger It’s a Ground Chuck and Brisket blend burger with bacon, crumbled bleu cheese and bleu cheese dressing on a deliciously warm, toasted poppy seed bun. This burger is amazing, and has a bunch of flavor. It’s one of my all-time favorites, and I get it almost every time I’m here! Don’t think you can avoid their legendary cheddar and bacon fries either, because they’re simply irresistible!

We love Mooyah because it’s fresh, fun and simple every single time. They’ll build your burger exactly how you want it--be it lettuce wrapped, or with turkey instead of beef, or as simple as ketchup and mustard you’ll have your very own custom-made burger, every time. It’s really neat, which is why we love it so much.

The Jerk Burger

Another of my mom’s favorite burgers which is loaded with authentic, intense spices and savory Jerk seasonings that definitely do not disappoint. It is dressed with crispy lettuce, fresh tomatoes and thick, meaty bacon that compliments the melted American cheese perfectly, all under a buttery, oven-toasted bun. What holds everything together is the special jerk sauce that they are known for.

Stay C's Kitchen daily menu is made with the freshest ingredients and has the best Jerk burger, thus far!

Q&Awith Rielcro Are all lobsters red?

No, lobsters are usually dark blue or multicolored. They are only red once boiled.

Why do mosquito bites itch?

Only female mosquitoes bite.

When they do, they make teeny tiny holes in your skin with the sharp parts of their mouths, and as they take a little bit of blood, a liquid from their mouths enters your skin which irritates the skin and causes it to swell and itch.

Can ANTS sew?

Yes, some ants can sew. A special type of ant called the Tailor Ant, also known as the Weaver Ant has a type of silk in its body that it uses to sew. These ants don’t sew socks with holes, or bites, the ant’s adaptation “equipment” allow them to sew living leaves that are still attached to a tree together.

/ri-dic-u-lous/ Acronyms that shouldn’t be.

UOENO /yeen-een-noe/ expression

YOLO /yoe-low/ exclamation

The letters don’t match the While the meaning of the actual words but are meant to word isn’t all-to ridiculous: mean: You Don’t Even Know. This (You Only Live Once), is what acronym is OK in the world of irresponsible individuals text language, but is read as use as a terribly annoying illiterate when said aloud. excuse to act stupid and immaturely when in normal situations that particular act wouldn’t be /oh-vee-oh/ appropriate

OVO noun

While most people don’t know that the letters stand for October’s Very Own, a Sound label. Some ignorantly yell it out as an expression as they see other mis-informed people do.

When you hear people say this in reference to something other than a sound label, know that the individual is trying way to hard to be cool and have no idea what they are talking about.

All Around The World with Riel

Howdy Y’all! This month I decided to tell you all a little bit about Chicago, Illinois! My family and I visited not long ago, and I really enjoyed it! Read on to find some of Chicago’s best attractions and some cool facts!

The downtown area is beautiful at night. Everything is lit up and the skyline is absolutely breathtaking! It definitely is a sight to see. We visited the Navy Pier and we also visited Soldier Field. It was all very cool.

I also saw the cloud gate aka "the bean". The cloud gate is shaped like a bean and reflects like a mirror.

I also saw the Crown Fountain!

The Crown Fountain in Millennium Park is an interactive fountain composed of two glass-brick towers, with mixed media (light, LED display, water) united by a black granite pool.

I didn't get in the water but I got a close enough look at it!

I did get a chance to try Garrett's Popcorn Shop for the very first time! It’s crazy popular and always has a line by the door, as if it were part of the décor! I tried the "Chicago mix" which includes the Caramel Crisps and Cheese Corn.

The Caramel popcorn has deep buttery notes, sweet brown sugar and a Crème Brûlée crunch combine for a rich taste sensation.

The Cheese popcorn has freshly-melted, sharp cheddar cheese and is stirred into each and every batch. It is super tasty and delish!

I recommend that you stop by Garrett's Popcorn Shop at least once on your next trip to Chicago!
