Taking recommendations for The Burger Crawl may be one of the best things I can do. Earlier this year a subscriber recommended Hopdoddy Burger Bar to me, and at the time they were only located in Texas. A couple months later, I took a trip to Fry's Electronics in Manhattan Beach, CA, and noticed a sign that said Hopdoddy across the street. I was pleasantly surprised, though disappointed that I do not have to travel to Texas to try Hopdoddy. On today's episode I try the Buffalo Bill Burger. Which I must say, was pretty good, but not as good as a future episode of The Burger Crawl.
I went to the Hopdoddy in Manhattan Beach, the one across from Fry’s. A subscriber named Eric told me about it. I thought I’d have to go to Texas.
The Buffalo Bill is a bison patty with bacon, Frank’s hot sauce, a blue cheese and something they call sassy sauce, plus fresh onion and tomato. It’s super juicy and drips everywhere. The hot sauce has that hot sauce flavor without much heat. The bun is soft and light like the potato bun I had at The Melt.
Fresh onions are my favorite thing on a burger, and they bring out the meat here too. Intense flavors. Thank you, Eric.
