Kenny & Zuke's Co Owner Nick Zukin recently set out on a challenge to try all of Portland's burgers and rate them. He tried over 70 over three months and is blogging about his ratings over at his blog, ExtraMSG. Willamette Weekly recently did a feature on Nick's findings, and Painted Hills Beef helped to create Nick's top burger!
Via Willamette Week:
Metrovino’s double cheeseburger gives In-N-Out’s double-double animal-style an extreme makeover. You’ll wish you had the gaping jaw of a python for this sucker. Yes, it’s that big. Aside from the size, it seems like a typical burger. That’s what makes this No. 1. For such a straightforward approach, the results are spectacular: beefy and ultra-juicy with pungent cheese and a palate-puckering sauce. Perfection on a bun.
Bun: BridgePort Brewpub bakery when tasted (changed to using housemade sesame-seeded bun last week).
Meat: Painted Hills chuck plus ribeye trimmings, ground in-house, 12 oz. (two 6 oz. patties), 20 percent fat.
