Says whosdp:
Six oz. of ground chuck pressed flat, salt and pepper and a charcoal grill is a pretty simple recipe for a ''top ten burger." Flip it once, let it plump up, and top it with your choice of: extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grilled green chiles or onions (or both), thinly sliced tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, etc. Nestled in a decent hamburger bun, cut in half and served with kettle chips and a tasty brew, one can enjoy a great burger, free of pretentious surroundings and obnoxious drunks
Do you think the best burger in Denver is one grilled in your own back yard? If not, where would you recommend people go for the best burger in metro Denver?
