With no concrete lunch plans, I was excited to learn that the Hoss' Loaded Burgers truck was parked near my office today. It has been a long time since I've eaten one of their juicy, stuffed, grass-fed beef creations and, since I'd already treated myself to fancy coffee yesterday, why not continue the trend? (Yes, I know this is perhaps not the wisest money-management decision to make, but I am also supporting the local economy...right?)
The Hoss Burger boys endeared themselves to me last fall and I'd been anxious to get back to their truck. So I took advantage of a beautiful day, walked the short walk to the truck, and picked out a burger from one of their four specials, each stuffed with cheese and topped with appropriate fixin's.
For the record, I have NO idea why this keeps posting sideways... |
I ordered the Big Kahuna burger, a patty stuffed with Swiss cheese and topped with a pineapple slice and teriyaki sauce. Sounded delicious for only $7. A sign in the window said for maximum juiciness and deliciousness, all burgers were cooked to medium-ish. They even asked before they through my patty on the grill. I said that was fine because, well, they are the burger experts and who am I to argue with them? I should've requested more medium-well. It was pretty raw in the middle. I won't post a picture of that, but I will say (in case my mother is reading), I did put the patty in the microwave back at the office to get it edible by Jessica standards.
Again with the sideways...ugh! |
Do try it out, though. Don't give up on them! Just make sure when you do venture to Hoss' Loaded Burgers, that you are not about to go into a meeting, eat in your car, or otherwise trying to impress the person with whom you are dining. I have tried both types of fries, sweet potato fries or their unique rosemary-parmesan, and they are both delicious. A small order is only $2 and is plenty when paired with the large burger.
I do apologize for the lack of cooperation with my photos. I have no idea what's going on with them.
Love that you posted! I tried Hoss' at the SEC BBQ tailgate competition last year, and was very impressed, I will have to scope them out again. Hope to see you soon! AND i started a blog this year too :)
ReplyDeleteOoh fun, I'll have to start reading it! Yes, I hope to see you again soon too. It's been too long!
DeleteThanks for the nice write up. I occasionally Google the truck to see what new articles have been written about us.
ReplyDeleteSorry the burger wasn't cooked enough for you. I'll be happy to cook it medium-well for you next time so you don't have to put it in the microwave. That might have been why it didn't taste as delicious as last time. I want it to be perfect for you right off the grill.
Thanks for coming out to the truck. Hope to see you out again soon.
