Before going to Peter Luger for a Steak Burger I would have said that I am strong enough to become a vegetarian and that I have the willpower to not eat meat.  Now, I’ve gone to far.  I can never be a vegetarian.  Because I know how good a hamburger can be.  The bacon cheeseburger from Peter Luger Steakhouse (which I asked for without cheese but came with cheese anyway) was the best damn burger I have ever eaten.  And I will probably never eat it again.

We started out at the bar waiting for a table and polished off a few bloody marries complete with little delicious chunks of horseradish.  We were seated after about an hour of waiting and ordered our STEAK BURGERS.  Now, something you should know, steak burgers are the cheapest thing on the menu, weighing in at around 15 dollars with cheese and a quarter pound strip of bacon.

The first half went really well.  By the time I started in on the second half I was sweating.  The meat sweats are common and I’m not embarrassed about getting them.  Incredible burger, I could have split it but it was worth being in pain for the next two days.  Peter Luger, weekend brunch, try it.
