Braunschweiger sandwich!?!?! It’s one of my favorites and I thought those could only be had at home!

I never could stomach that stuff. Haven’t tried it in a while but it just smells wrong.

Yeah Braunschweiger sandwich!!! witha chunk of velveeta and mustard.

No Miracle Whip?

and mayo on it!!!

A buddy from college owns a bar near Rochester called Jack’s. I have never been there but he posts photos all the time and the food looks fantastic.

Jac’s in Chatfield. Super good food there. The beer is really cold too. I belong to the gun club in Chatfield and usually stop for a cold one and burger at Jac’s and have never been disappointed. Jac’s has been written up in the local newspaper…. nice article but it’s been a while.

I’m working at the Rochester wal mart cutting a new door, maybe I’ll grab a jacs burger while I’m in the area.

We’ve done the parking lot turn around at this place more times than we’ve eaten there because I’m just not willing to stand in that long of a line for burgers and fries.

As far as the wait, it wasn’t to bad really. We ordered and had our food within 10 minutes I would say. Granted this was Tuesday but hit it at a few minutes before noon, so it was still really busy.

Gordys is the most overrated place ever. It isn’t even worth a second chance. Made that mistake twice.

There a place on West 7th in St. Paul called Keenan’s Bar. A couple of blocks south of Mancini’s on the east side of the road. Very low key dive bar, but worth a visit for the burger.

On the (far) other end of the spectrum, there’s P.S. Steak near Loring Park in Minneapolis. Killer burger.

I’d also be curious to know what you think about Culver’s, honestly.

I usually go straight mayo (or Miracle Whip ), but I’d give that a try for sure!

Probably never going to do a review of Culver’s, but my wife loves it so we go once in a while when needing food on the go. I used to hate Culver’s burgers passionately and would always go with the Reuben or Spicy Chicken. I have had a good burger there a few times since, seems pretty hit or miss imo. If it’s good and hot off the grill they are as good as any fast food, if it’s not it is barely edible. They get bonus points for Curds and custard tho.

P.S. Steak would be tough to not get steak, but I’ll add that to the list. I’ve been to Gordy’s a few times and wasn’t really wow’d, but didn’t hate it either. They will get a review at some point too.

Yeah give it a shot and let us know how it is. I actually misspoke, he was a HS classmate not college. We played hockey together.

They have a solid burger agree sometimes it’s not super fresh. We will have to disagree on the curds though, for them being a Wisconsin company I would expect better on those.

Yeah I dont really care for their cheese curds at all. They have an odd taste.

Their burgers taste burnt to me.

Never said they were great or even good, but they are a nice option to have that no other FF place offers.

It feels weird saying this but try the ones from Dairy Queen, at least the ones from the one close to me are way better, they even have the squeaky cheese in them. No one except the state fair stands do the curds proper. Maybe we need another thread on cheese curds.

Grizzly’s makes some pretty good curds. Didn’t know DQ had them ?

They still didn’t get the breading right, but the cheese is closer anyway.

Love a Braunschweiger sandwich with cheddar cheese and Mayo and a little BBQ seasoning.

Id say one of the best places for cheese curds at a fast good place is the A & W along with a pappa burger pretty good combo.

Kids had cheese curds in Florida and they came with caramel sauce.
