How would you
describe your burger?
Doug E. Fresh: Cooked perfectly with love
Big Kid: Loved both
One More Amy: Perfect, light, simple. All the right garnishments.
Carl: Jeff Burger – Perfecto!
G-Dog: Deliciouso!
Fitz: Both were amazing! The heirloom tomatoes were delicious. The maple, apple-wood, smoked bacon on the
Balaban burger was the best I’ve ever had, and I consider myself a bacon
connoisseur! J
9: Totally Awesome
Two Napkins: (Jeff) Fresh, light, sweet, summery – A+ (House) Hearty, rich, delish, alternating
taste of smoke, salt, and sweet.
Jason Looney: Awesome
Jazzy Jeff: Pretty damn good
The Punisher: Grass fed ground sirloin with local tomatoes
MareBear: I gave it to the Punisher, and ate Gipper’s!
K-Ron: I made love to Jeff. Via his burger.
P-Diddy: Both delicious, both obviously handmade
patties. Bacon was delicious, heirloom
tomatoes were tasty.
Beaner: Delicious!
I loved the bacon on the Balaburger & pickle on the JeffBurger
7: Damn good
Spinderella: (Jeff) Light, amaz-balls-tomatoes,
flavor-flav! (House) Thick, bacon, nice
buns!
kt: The patties were a little dense for my taste,
but were perfectly cooked. (Balaburger)
I had Fontina instead of goat cheese which might have been a mistake... The bun was toasted but pretty dry) and the toppings
were crisp and delicious! (Jeff) This
combination of flavors was perfect! The
heirloom tomatoes and the bread & butter pickles were awesome together!
Juicy Lucy: The Jeff was much lighter in texture than the
Herbie’s burger. I preferred the Jeff
Burger because it was much lighter and the bread & butter pickle was a
delicious contrast to the smokiness of the burger.

For those of you still reading... I wanted to thank Jazzy Jeff (aka: Jeff Orbin) for hosting such a special 46th meeting of the Big Bitches Burger Club! We had an amazing turnout, and everyone obviously loved their burgers! I'm sure some of you readers might think that perhaps the scores were so high because Jeff (owner & chef!) was sitting at our table... but, I was there... the burgers were THAT good! If you have never been to Herbie's, I strongly suggest stopping in and trying out their delicious burger - OH, and any of the other fantastic offerings!
