It's National Hamburger Day, and as a guy who lives, breathes and craves cheeseburgers, I know a thing or two about pattied out cow meat.  As the 'ol saying goes; "opinions are like noses, we all have one."  So we are seeking your input on Central New York's Best Hamburger..

I'm salivating just thinking about all the burgers I like.  And it's hard not to rank the ones you grill yourself at the top.  But here we go Tad's Top 5 Burgers: (not in any particular order)

Tad's Top Burgers

  • Boilermaker Burger - Definitely would be the top choice, but not available year round.
  • 5 Guys Burgers - How can they be leave you so stuffed?
  • Big Mac - Back in the day, I drove 35 minutes to get one.
  • Wendy's Single - No extras, straight up, and that new pretzel bun, YUM.
  • Eddie Jr - Only has these one time at Kayuta Lake Campground and he won't give up the secret.

Polly's Take

I'm not as into burgers as Tad, who could eat them 7 days a week but I enjoy one from time to time. Here's my Top 5

Polly's Top Burgers

  • 5 Guys Burgers - These guys make the best burgers around! The only problem is the overstuffed feeling after you eat one.
  • Boilermaker Burger - I wish these were available year round
  • Big Mac - These I could eat 7 days a week but those calories will kill ya
  • Rooster Burger at Tin Rooster - It not only has bacon but a fried green tomato.
  • Mushroom Swiss at Heron Creek - Everything Chef Andy makes is amazing but his burgers are among the best.

So what's your favorite hamburger or as they say in New England hamburg?
