7/17/2016 Maumee Bay Brewery Pub at the Oliver House Ghost Pepper Burger


I'm always up for a challenge and thought why not. I like Buffalo sauce and jalapeños so let's try a ghost pepper burger. The bun appeared made in the pub. It was a nice soft bun. The cheese had the ghost peppers in it. The spice of the pepper was a nice tingly burn, that left the corners of your mouth making you wonder if they were chapped. The bacon on the sandwich was delicious. It was candied or caramelized which brought a wonderful sweet to the spice. There was guacamole for the condiment. They gave a great amount of the guacamole to burger ratio.  My burgers cooked to medium, and came out just that. The burger was over taken a bit by the cheese, bacon and guacamole flavors. I took the tomato, pickles, and most of the raw onions off because of the size and many flavors of the burger.

7/1/16 Reverend's Big Budda Burger


Reverend's is in Bowling Green Ohio. It is a sports pub. The names on the menu mock different religions. I ordered the Big Budda Burger done Medium. The burger came out, and I was nervous if I would be able to put my mouth around the burger! The bun was toasted and sweet to the taste. The burger was cooked medium and lightly seasoned. The toppings were my favorite part. There were portobello mushrooms bacon, melted Queso dip and sautéed onions. The bacon was advertised to be peppered and dusted in cumin. I'm not sure I ever want bacon cooked another way. This burger is messy. I used both of my hands to hold it, and used many napkins. It was well worth it though. This might be my highest rated burger to date.

6/26/16 Beckett's Burger Bar's Philly Burger


Bowling Green, Ohio is home to Becketts Burgers. I ordered a Philly Burger done medium. The bun was perfect for the quality of the burger and was lightly toasted. The burger came back well done, which was disappointing, but it still had a pretty good flavor. I had a generous helping of green peppers, onions, and mushrooms on the burger with a slice of melted Provolone cheese. A few bites in to the burger I became a little sad. It was dryer than a burger should be. This sandwich I realized came with no sauce topping. The sandwich had a pretty good flavor but needed mayo.
