I passed through Wisconsin a couple years ago and stopped at Culvers. Saw the Butter Burger on the menu and thought to myself, I may never get another chance, how can I not try it? I went with the double Butter Burger with cheese, and let me tell you, it was awesome! I’ve had some good burgers in my time, and this ranked right up there with the best of them. I’m a big fan, wish we had a Culvers in Georgia.

OK where have you guys been – this was a favorite of mine when I was a teenager – 30+ years ago. FrosTop in Little Rock had the best of them and of course back the no one worried about cholestrol or the side effects of too much of some things is not really good for your heart. (Yearn) ohh for the good old days when we could eat without having to think about fat grams.

I actually had one in an Ohio Culver’s a while back and had forgotten the place’s name until now. Yeah, it was pretty good!

I’m from Wisconsin. Specifically, Sheboygan, which is branded as the “Bratwust Capital of the World”.

There’s quite a few wonderful local places for a good butterburger (which were around before Culver’s).

My favorite is Charcoal Inn. Their regular burgers are fine, but where they shine is with the steak sandwiches. They are tenderized steak patties grilled on a charcoal grill, placed on a toasted hard roll lavished with butter. Add onions (depending on how I feel, fried or raw, either is wonderful), pickles and a nice brown mustard, and you are in paradise.

So hungry for a Super Steak right now. Gah!

I remember in college a group of my guy friends always made butter burgers – they would make two relatively flattened out patties, place a large pat of butter on one and cover it with the other burger.

Another born and bred cheesehead here – I had no idea the butter burger was a Wisconsin thing. I only knew that Kopp’s in Milwaukee has amazing, huge hamburgers that indeed have a square of butter thrown right on the burger. Mmmmm….Kopp’s. What I wouldn’t give for one here in Texas.

If you want another true Midwestern fav…you need to try a Lion’s Choice Roast Beef sandwich. I’m not sure what they put on the buns to make them taste so good, but I crave one quite frequently now that I’m on the west coast.
