18 Sept: National Cheeseburger Day

[DaveD]

Yes friends, once again it is National Cheeseburger Day here in the United States. We have rain here today and nothing ready to cook anyway, so we'll be contenting ourselves with Five Guys cheeseburgers for lunch. How will y'all celebrate??

[GolfGeezer]

Well, it is not exactly a cheeseburger, but a local restaurant we frequent serves a dish I cannot resist, and I'll argue fits the cheeseburger definition - sort of. I'll be there for lunch today.

ORIGINAL RIBEYE MELT sliced ribeye, swiss cheese, red wine onions, mustard bacon sauce, grilled parmesan sourdough

Awesome! It’ll be a “ Sunrise Burger” at the neighborhood tavern. Burger, three kinds of cheese, bacon, and sautéed onions all topped with an over easy egg. My favorite there. It’s amazing.

[Andrrr]

A burger for breakfast sounds really good lol. What tavern?

[Jfrosty27]

Andrrr Romey’s Place Bar and Grill in Franklin. Just an old fashioned corner bar that has great food

Bacon Cheeseburger, when pigs and cows come together.

We were in Conway SC last weekend. They were gearing up for a burger week like Attjack shares with us. I didn't stay long enough to partake.

[Attjack]

Bummer!

I have burgers on the menu for Saturday. Plus, I’m not cooking tonight due to a previous engagement.

I'm counting calories and while I take my sourdough starter out of the fridge and feed it weekly, I'm not baking or consuming bread at the moment. So, no cheeseburger here, unless its a naked one on a plate... I'm saving my carbs for a beer at the end of the day!

That said, now my mouth is literally watering as I think of those smash burger prime rib sliders Mosca turned me onto... I had a bag of them as leftovers from Labor Day and in the freezer, and was pulling them out for lunch for a while, but they are now all gone...

[Porkies]

I'm on the low carb also. Need to trim the excess.

[FireMan]

Cheeburger, cheeburger, cheeburger, Pepsi! no coke! Cheeburger, Cheeburger, Cheeburger!

[DaveD]

No fries, chips!

[Porkies]

Cheep?

[DogFaced PonySoldier]

Wife's birthday... thinking cheeseburgers sound like a great birthday dinner! lol

[smokenoob]

Dang! Why couldn’t it be Mac & Cheese day? That’s what I have Q’ed up 🙄

[DaveD]

National Mac & Cheese day is July 14 (same as Bastille Day...) You'll have to wait til next year!

[Draznnl]

DaveD since mac & cheese day is on Bastille Day, are we supposed to use something like a Camembert or a Gruyère in it that day?

[DaveD]

Draznnl I was picturing the torch & pitchfork brandishing mob being repelled from the castle walls by the defenders pouring huge vats of mac & cheese on them from the ramparts...

If you have the Wendy’s app you can get a Junior Bacon Cheeseburger for a penny. That and their $1 Frosty gave me my cheapest fast food meal in years.

[DogFaced PonySoldier]

Sounds more like a snack to me. lol

[RonB]

We were out and about at lunch time. The first Shake Shack in the area opened recently, so we tried it today. I had a cheeseburger and fries while Nan had the same thing but with lettuce replacing the bun. We both enjoyed it, but it wasn't the best I have had.

[TripleB]

I will celebrate by having grilled lamb chops, green salad and sauteed mushrooms on the side.

But I will be thinking of National Cheeseburger Day and will lift my beer (or wine) in celebration

[texastweeter]

I'll have to do mine tomorrow.

Having burgers on Monday hot dogs tonight
