Bacon Cheeseburger at A&T Burgers | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 16

Sometimes you don't want the ‎Onion Jam‬, ‪‎Fruit roll-up‬ ‪‎Ketchup‬ or a half-blend of ‪‎bacon‬ in your ‪‎burger‬. There are times when you just need an unpretentious, very simple, and quality burger. A&T Burgers in South Los Angeles‬ certainly qualifies!

If you can make food in the hood of Los Angeles without being shot, you may very well have a quality product. This stands true at A&T Burger in South Central. The burger place has a 30 year history in the community, and the locals love it. It is a favorite to high school student at Locke High School, and the residence of the area. Simple and delicious.

What Happens When A Human Tries to Steal Eggs From An Ostrich Nest | Ft. L.A. BEAST

About 1 month ago, fellow YouTuber BLUMGUM thought that it would be wise to call out the L.A. BEAST and his raw egg drinking abilities and he then proceeded to chug down 54 raw eggs, besting the L.A. BEAST’S personal record of 50. In an effort to redeem himself, the L.A. BEAST hung himself upside down, chugged 60 raw eggs like a boss, flipped upright again, puked those eggs into a frying pan, made an omelet and then ate it to reclaim his egg champion status. BLUMGUM did not take to kindly to the L.A. BEAST’S actions and decided to drink wasabi and eggs mixed together while hanging upside down, puke those up into a frying pan and make himself a GREEN EGGS AND HAM breakfast. BAD MOVE BLUMGUM. As stated on many previous occasions, the L.A. BEAST is not married, has no kids, no real 9-5 job, and has 24 hours, 7 days a week to think of ways to not be 1 UPed.
So please, sit back, relax, and enjoy this installment of the L.A. BEAST personally demonstrating why he is in fact, the EGG KING OF THE INTERNET.

On this episode of The Burger Crawl, a friend asked me where he should try a burger. I suggested Fred’s Downhome Burgers in South Los Angeles. It turns out that my friend believes the burger has too much mustard on it. Do you think it is possible to have too much mustard or any condiment on a burger?

Hamburger Hamlet is as Los Angeles as the history of our city gets. It started in 1950 and has withstood the test of time despite any hardships it has encountered. The burger joint that we knew and love is back the old classic items we remember like the Marilyn Burger, The #11, Zucchini Zircles, and much more.

Garbage Burger at Robin’s Woodfire BBQ Pasadena | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 10

Pasadena Cheeseburger Week 2015 has come to an end. I was not able to try all that I wanted, but I narrowed it down to 3 selections, and I have picked a favorite of those three. Which do you think it is?

The Garbage Burger at Robin’s Woodfire BBQ is not something the restaurant is known for, being a BBQ joint and all; but I will tell you, it is certainly worth a try. It’s big, bold, in your face, and will not be ignored. The restaurant has that very comfortable feel of a BBQ Joint.

Devil Burger at Rounds Premium Burgers | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 9

A mean spirited burger with a hint of a kick! Something like a puppy nipping at you from behind a gate! The Devil Burger at Rounds Premium Burgers

Rounds Premium Burger is participating in Pasadena Cheeseburger Week 2015. They are offering 15% off their entire menu for the week. It ends tomorrow. The Devil Burger is pretty tasty. It has a small kick, best described as a ferocious new born puppy nipping at it, you hear it yapping on and on but it does not really do much hard to you at all, just makes a lot of noise to let you know it is there.

Lionel Sternberger is credited with adding cheese to the hamburger sandwich in the 1926 at The Rite Spot. Since then Pasadena has held its rightful place in the hearts and minds of burger lovers and burger historians. Cheeseburger Week in is a week long celebration of the cheeseburger, and a remembering of the great history it has brung to burger culture, and to local Pasadena, CA.

My first stop on the week long burger crawl is at Dog Haus Biergarten. You are allowed to select any burger from their reasonably priced menu, and indulge.

Where will you go for Cheeseburger Week, maybe we can meet there?!
