Has anyone had a burger from Leroy and Lewis?

I read an article a while back that said they had the # 1 burger in TX, and the # 6 burger in the US. I might want to try one the next time we're visiting our son in Austin. If I remember correctly their ground beef was a combo of brisket and short ribs.

I have the book with the recipe (or a recipe near their burger). I read through it the other day and it looks good to me.

Ron, 58limited had their burger at the last San Marcos MeatUp in April. Maybe he can chime in.

Its a good burger but I wouldn't place it as #1 in Texas. There are burgers as good or better right here where I live.

I had one as well when David and I went a couple of Meat-ups ago. I didn't think much of it, kind of dry as I recall. Left me kind of disappointed compared to their other stuff. Hardly #1, I'd take Five Guys any day by comparison.

I've not had one, just saw them make it on YT. Condensed version ..... they reverse sear the patty. I believe its a 6 oz patty. And if I recall correctly, they make a " special sauce " .

I've been reverse searing my burgers like that. I smoke them at about as low a temp as I can get the Kettle to run. But its a lot of trouble just for a burger for Mrs Dollar and I. Its easier and faster to do a good onion burger on the Blackstone.

It's 8 ounces and yeah, something quicker to the rescue. 8 ounces is way too big for my loaf bread.

[Lynn Dollar]

Jerod Broussard yes, even at 6 oz, the meat to bread ratio gets out of whack, for my tastes.

[Jerod Broussard]

4 ounces for the win.

They've got that Beet BBQ sauce they keep pushing. It does seem to get really good reviews.
