Having frequented Daily Grill multiples times with each experience being very good, I was looking forward to sampling their Black and Bleu Burger that was on their online menu which stated being stuffed, yeah stuffed, with Bleu Cheese and cracked black pepper and topped with a Bleu Cheese Mayo and served with their amazing Onion [...]

That big flat kind of burger you used to see a lot of in Tulsa can be a work of art. I remember going to the 15th Street branch of Ron’s when Ron Baber himself was working and watch him cook my burger with the grace of a ballerina. The restaurant looked like a cowshed [...]

Linda-Mar Drive-In has been a west Tulsa fixture since the early 1970’s with various members of the McCutchen family keeping the tradition alive. With a motto of “The Westside is the Best Side” I had to go with the Westside Cheese Burger that consists of double meat & cheese on Texas Toast. I was looking [...]

Day two of our glorious, college-nerd-style Spring Break (the kind where you don’t go to Padre or Cozumel or anywhere like that but instead stay home to cuddle the books you’ve been waiting to read for six months) was a fun-filled day. We: Slept in. Took a long nap. Went to bed early. (Are we [...]

The New Atlas Grill is located in the beautiful nationally registered art deco 12 floor Atlas Life Building, built in 1922. The Atlas Life Coffee Shop operated since its opening but went by the way side over the years. In the mid 1990’s Matt and Brooke Kelly (who now own and operate Lucky’s Restaurant) opened [...]

Some food items may be a little harder to justify traveling long distance to indulge on. There are only a few dishes I will travel for if I hear they are the best in the area. Rarely do I get very excited about going across town for a hamburger because there are so many mouthwatering [...]

Wine isn’t only fun with haute cuisine and fancily prepared dishes. Wine is as versatile as beer when it comes to pairing with what we think as quintessentially American food like burgers and fries, barbecue, and yes even chicken fried steak. One of my own personal food and wine pairing favorites is actually a great [...]

Not only am I following Joe of joesburgersearch.com on Facebook and Twitter but about every week I find myself following an instinctual craving from deep within my belly’s brain that takes me to one of those awesome burger places Joe talks about on his website. Yesterday my friend Mark Stenner (Mark if you read this [...]

Today I was reflecting on food pictures from over the past few months… there are tons of them (about 10,000). Sometimes It trips me out when I look at all the food pictures I take for fun. I ran across these few pictures and thought to myself, man, “this is how I like my ground [...]

I had a great lunch with my buddy Ryan yesterday. Whenever Ryan and I go out to lunch we always like to grab a good burger and naturally, he leaves it up to me to find the best spots in Tulsa for us to meet. Since yesterday was a Monday, Hanks, Claud’s and many of [...]

Weber’s and Claud’s have been operating in Tulsa’s Brookside within a stones throw of each other for over 40 plus years (Weber’s 1933 & Claud’s 1965).  On this day several burger lovers were asking “Who is the king of Brookside burgers?” To read the full article by Joe about what went down visit here -> [...]

This week I had a chance to meet up with Joe from Joes Burger Search again. This time we hit up Lucky’s Restaurant on Cherry street for a few gourmet Cheeseburgers. These burgers are not your normal cheeseburger. I would say they are some of the best in Tulsa, and for being offered at a [...]

Joe wrote an awesome review about our experience, make sure to check out his blog at http://www.joesburgersearch.com See the video on [...]

With summer slowly beginning to fade I decided to join some friends up on Grand Lake. After spending the day relaxing on the waterfront, we went swimming and then went hiking down a spillway and then began to walk back through Disney, Oklahoma to the starting point of our trek. After all the activities of [...]

Vrrrooommm Vrrrooommm…Road Trip! After an afternoon drive to Oklahoma City and a visit to my Alma-mater, UCO, in Edmond, we decided to take an alternate route and head down Route 66 making our way back to Tulsa.  As we drove down this famous historic roadway, we recalled that this road was the main form of [...]

The new Smashburger in Tulsa is celebrating their arrival by having a fundraiser for the Child Abuse Network of Tulsa. On Saturday, August 8th, Smashburger will be donating $1 from every OK Smashburger or OK Smashchicken purchased. The OK Smashburger and OK Smashchicken were created to reflect the specific culture of Oklahoma. Stacked with fried [...]

We, at the Tulsa Food Blog, love our burgers. We have made it our quest to find the absolute best burger in town. Last night we definitely found a new contender in the form of the new burger joint in the Hills Shopping Center, Smashburger. We had the privilege of attending Smashburger’s pre-opening run. Smashburger [...]

Out to lunch for business, my coworker and I stopped by Fat Daddy’s Pub. He had been wanting to try it for years, yet for whatever reason had never managed to drop by. We showed up on a Tuesday which happened to be Cheap Taco Day. My coworker ordered the fish and chips and one [...]

I love time spent outside barbecuing by the pool in the summer. The key to having an amazing barbecue is to have some truly great cuts of meat. Siegi’s Meat Market is a wonderful place to pick up fine pieces of meat. They have a wide variety of steaks, sausages and sauces. Siegi’s is reasonably [...]

I’ve driven by Louie’s a couple of times just West of 101st and Sheridan and kept reminding myself to go in. I finally did. I happen to be there during a basket ball game which might account for the not so great service, but I liked it enough that I went back the next day [...]

This is perfect for all the topping lovers out there. This homemade burger is topped with pepper jack cheese, fresh made guacamole, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, fresh jalapenos and thick cut bacon on a homemade bun. This burger has so many layers of flavor that you never know what flavor to expect with each bite. [...]
