I went to "Smoke & Pickles" yesterday for dinner after seeing glowing reviews on Groogle. The place was small and only had one table occupied when I got there at 6:30pm which wasn't reassuring.
 
I got the BBQ Bacon burger. 

Stacked! (Nuggets in back) Their CHANGZ branded Trinidad Yellow hot sauce was tasty, but unfortunately lacked any actual Trinidad Yellow flavour, it was 4/10 for heat.

They make their own Pickled Smoked Jalapenos in house, unfortunately these weren't available to purchase. 

Probably the best burger I've ever had, I was not disappointed. By the time I left, there wasn't a spare seat available, they even had people coming in constantly for take-away. I will definitely be back to this joint.

Sweet.
 
The patty's look nice and loose.
 
Good overall balance of bun to meat to fixin's.
 
Well done Aussies.
 
Well done!

I smashed some tonight, 80/20 on GrillGrates, 3 patties so thin they were like crispy fried beef. 
 
Comfort food that brings you back to old times when burgers were cooked right on those old seasoned flat tops in your favorite burger joint!!!!

 

[texas blues]

Holy mother of chingon!
 
RG is killin' it.
 
Scheezy AF!
 
Except for that dirty thumbnail.
 
In the last pic.
 
Ashen.
 
That first pic.
 
Like a bull dog eating mayonnaise. 
 
And wettern' a shampoo'd water buffalo.
 
That burger makes me want to roll around.
 
In it like a dog in the back yard.
 
Both y'all's kung fu is kickin' ass.
 
Some of the bestest sheeit I've seen.
 
Ever posted in this thread.
 
You vatos are like.
 
Cheeseburger Overlords.
 
I bow down before y'all.
 
Now.
 
Jump back and kiss yo' selfs.
 
Two times!

 

[Rajun Gardener]

I saw that too but it's growing season and my hands were clean. 
 
WTF do they grow so fast to begin with? It seems the older I get, my beard and nails grow like my hair used to.     

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Your thumbnail is cleaner than TB's thumb ring. Bleeeeeeed dat!

 

[texas blues]

Dear sweet ma and Ken.
 
They're both in their 80's.
 
They love Freddy's.
 
So does my sister and her husband.
 
They like to drag me along.
 
Sometimes.
 
To the one in Cedar Park.
 
Just west and south.
 
Of Georgetown TX,
 
Its damn goodern hell.
 
But don't take my word for it....
 

 
We just love burgers.

 

[Chorizo857_62J]

[texas blues]

Si senor.
 
Smashed style ever time!
 
Because.
 
We cuttin'.

 

[texas blues]

I've had a big jones on.
 
For a Whataburger Patty Melt.
 
But do to the situation.
 
I decided to make my own.
 
Is it a sandwich?
 
Is it a burger?
 
Y'all decide.
 
I'm posting it here any how.
 
Black Betty some onions.
 

 
Throw down some HEB 12 grain bread.
 
In butter.
 
Traditional patty melt is on rye.
 
But we're in Texas so...
 

 
Smash some 80/20 chuck.
 

 
Takes about 30 seconds.
 
And flip it.
 
Just look at that crust!
 

 
Now lay it down on the bread.
 
I failed to include a pic of the blue cheese crumbles.
 
On the lower piece of bread.
 
Smack down the onions on top.
 
And add some thin sliced grilled red xalapas.
 
From my dear sweet ma's garden.
 
Throw down some swiss on the other side.
 

 
Look at it.
 
I said.
 
LOOK AT IT!
 

 
Cut it open.
 

 
Eat it like its date night.
 

 
You want this.
 

 
 
Patty melt.
 
 
Have mercy!

 

[ChileRelleno]

[Chorizo857_62J]

My next door neighbors dog went into heat.

I love to be loving cheeseburgers.
 
Smashed style.
 
With a toasted squishy bun.
