The restaurant part of the legend of the Billy Goat Tavern began on Chicago’s South Side in 1934. Greek immigrant William Sianas paid $205 for the Lincoln Tavern. In 1964, Sianas moved the bar to its current subterranean location, and it’s here, underneath Chicago’s Wrigley Building on Michigan Avenue, that the modern part of the… Continue reading Billy Goat Frozen Burger Review – from Devanco Foods

Pasture Perfect Burger Review
I have to say from the outset, me and frozen burger patties don’t get along. I’ve tried a boatload of different brands. To me, they have a taste and texture in common that I personally don’t find appealing. I think probably many of them are marketed to be tossed on your charcoal or gas grill,… Continue reading Pasture Perfect Burger Review
Advance Pierre Pretzel Cheeseburger Review
Every time I think I have covered every single availability in the ‘heat and eat’ burger category, I run across a new one. This week it’s the “Pretzel Cheeseburger” from Advance Pierre, arguably the largest manufacturer of heat and eat burgers, and I’ve tried a gaggle of them. While the Ohio company puts out a… Continue reading Advance Pierre Pretzel Cheeseburger Review
Steak N Shake Frozen Burgers Review
Seems like every restaurant brand is trying to extend their reach by putting labeled products in the grocery aisles; if my memory is correct, seems like Taco Bell was first. Now there is hardly a fast casual brand that you don’t see in the grocery, whether it’s Boston Market, Fridays, Marie Callenders, Fatburger, Burger King,… Continue reading Steak N Shake Frozen Burgers Review
Dollar Tree Frozen Sliders Review
I have previously wowed you with my reviews of other products from AdvancePierre, like the Big Az cheeseburger. We’ve also taken a look at “Dollar store” (generically using the name) foods like cheeseburgers, fish sandwiches, and empanadas. I actually preferred the fish sandwich to any of the fast food outlet offerings. AdvancePierre, based in Cincinnati,… Continue reading Dollar Tree Frozen Sliders Review

Fatburger is a fast casual hamburger chain, which was launched and is headquartered in Southern California. The original restaurant was opened by Lovie Yancey in 1948, and was called “Mr. Fatburger” for the first several years. Until recently, the chain has been mostly California-centric, but a limited amount of growth has come from international franchises. … Continue reading Home Cookin’ – Fatburger Frozen Hamburger Patties
Home Cookin’ Test – Extra Value Frozen Beef Patties
I’ve reviewed a lot of these frozen patties, and to date, I’ve liked Ball Park brand the most, even though they are a ‘heat and eat’ product, not a raw patty. Extra Value is an economy brand, manufactured by the Holten Meat Company, outside of St. Louis. I bought a package of a dozen quarter… Continue reading Home Cookin’ Test – Extra Value Frozen Beef Patties
Home Cookin’ Test – Private Selection Angus Beef Patties Review
I picked these up on a whim today, some ‘extras’ to throw on the grill for the 4th. 6 1/3 pound patties for about $6. “Angus”, but not “certified Angus”, and off the bat, I am a little concerned that the meat is not single country sourced, or if it is, the labeling on that… Continue reading Home Cookin’ Test – Private Selection Angus Beef Patties Review
