I’m going to use Celts Craft Houseโs March Burger of the Month to bring up the lost art, whether it be on purpose or not, of seasoning a burger.ย ย When was the last time you took a bite of a burger and immediately your taste buds started dancing?

When I took that first bite, a little smile hit my face.ย ย When I took a second bite, I knew something special was in my hands.ย ย The ever elusive taste of saltiness had taken over, and it was SO good!
I never have to worry about Chef Al seasoning his beef.ย ย He believes in doing it liberally.ย ย His 1/2 pound patty is seasoned perfectly and gets a great char from the hot grill.ย ย It’s flavorful and juicy.ย ย He spreads a little bbq sauce on top of the patty and tops that with tender, shaved pit ham.ย ย The ham adds a little more saltiness to the mix.ย ย Cheddar cheese covers everything.ย ย To melt the cheese, it gets steamed with liquid smoke.ย ย Al has used Denny’s Fifth Ave. Bakery buns for years.ย ย There is no reason to change.ย ย It’s a great bun.ย ย Soft, with the right firmness and lightly toasted.ย ย A good burger doesn’t need a condiment, but it can certainly enhance it.ย ย Boy, does the chipotle aioli finish this burgers climb to the top.ย ย It’s swiped on the top and bottom buns.ย ย There is no shortage of this delicious aioli.ย ย Thin sliced pickles on the side if you want to throw them on.
The flavors, saltiness and juiciness of this burger will blow you away.ย ย It will melt in your mouth.ย ย Did I want to order another one right after I finished this one?ย ย Damn right I did!ย ย I will be back this month for another Barbacoa Burger.
