Had three distinct burgers this past weekend:

Smashed Society. New food truck in Conroe on Highway 105 (near Walden); this was even better than I had expected — then again, it does have a 4.9 on Yelp and a perfect 5.0 on Google with 50(!) reviews. I ordered the triple smash with bacon egg, and chopped peppers, and this thing absolutely slapped. Juicy goodness, and charred smash excellence.

Bamburger. I had higher hopes for this than Smashed Society, having seen a good bit of excitement around it in the various Houston-area foodie Facebook groups I inhabit, but my Bamburger experience was just OK. Patties were very dry, and the giant lettuce leaf has no place on a smashburger.

Larry’s Latest Homemade. Organic grass-fed 80/20 beef, sharp cheddar, cherrywood smoked uncured bacon, jalapeños, habañeros, pickles, red onion, tomato, runny egg, spicy mustard/spicy mayo special sauce on a brioche bun
Much as I adore spice, I’m considering holding off on habañeros next time — they really do end up overpowering a lot of the other flavors. We shall see.
