I'm BACK!!!

I'm back in the good ol' US of A and it's burger time again!

The one burger that I've been looking forward to eating is the infamous KFC double down, but I'll wait until I get over my jetlag for that one.

But so far I got a chance to have a pulled pork sandwich at the dine

r at LAX while waiting to board the United flight to SLC, which w

as great. But the first real burger I've had is this.

This is the famous Hires Big H.

On the menu it's described like this:

Fresh-ground quarter-pound chuck hamburger from the Hires Big H kitchen garnished with Fry Sauce, lettuce, tomato and American cheese on a Big H bun.

I had mine as part of the Hires Big H Ring combo, which included the burger, some of the best onion rings you'll ever have and a huge cup of great root beer all for the incredible price of $8.75.

I was there with Pearl and she asked me how it was and I thought it was great. It tastes super fresh and I just love the fry sauce, but in the end it still doesn't beat an In-N-Out Double Double.

But having said that, I'd be more than happy to come back again.

No nutritional information but you can find out more here at www.hiresbigh.com

Value - 5 (the combo price is unbeatable)

Taste - 4 (great but not quite the Double Double)

Messiness - 4 (not messy at all, besides the occasional piece of lettuce falling out)

Would I eat one again? You bet!
