REVIEW: Bacon & Swiss Buttery Smashed Jack burger
A grease bomb, no doubt.
From the first bite, I noticed that this burger is quite greasy. The buttery texture adds to the richness, but it might be a bit too much for those who prefer a lighter bite. The Swiss cheese, which has always been a bit strange for me on a burger, didn't quite complement the flavors as I hoped. It melted nicely, but its distinct taste felt out of place.
One of the most puzzling elements was the sauce. It just exists, with a slight tang, but its flavor is hard to pin down. It didn't add much to the overall taste experience, leaving me wondering what it was supposed to bring to the table.
Despite these quirks, the burger itself was good. It's important to note that it's not a true smashed burger, as the patty is quite thick. This thickness gives it a hearty feel, but it misses the crispy edges that are characteristic of a proper smashed burger.
Overall, I would rate the Bacon & Swiss Buttery Smashed Jack burger a 5 out of 10. It's a decent option if you're in the mood for something rich and filling, but it falls short in a few key areas. If you're a fan of Swiss cheese and don't mind a bit of grease, you might enjoy it more than I did.
