Kevin and I used to work in the same building together. While getting to know each other, we quickly learned that we both enjoy a good burger. On work days, we'd sit and eat our lunch, telling different burger stories from our past.
Kevin had been telling me about Blimpy Burger in Ann Arbor, and it was stunning to think that I hadn't been there yet. With its close proximity and uniqueness in so many ways, it seemed like a no-brainer. So, we went one day, and another colleague joined us too. As we sat there discussing the burger and the style that only Blimpy Burger can bring, the Burger Boys were born. From there, whenever we hung out, we made it a point to go to a new burger joint together. We went to Roy's Barbeque and Hamburgers in Milan, Dan's Downtown Tavern in Saline, hit some corporate flair with Bailey's in Canton and Culver's in Belleville, and a few other burger stops were made along the way too. There's even a funny story involving catching each other at the Saline Burger King drive thru. We were both thinking the same thing: get a $1 double for the trip home. We laughed at the notion of actually starting a website or blog that included everything burger. It's now a reality and we're thrilled to share our love for the burger experience with everyone. -Lucas

I was "wondering" when you were going to mention "Blimpy Burger", which happens to be "my" favorite burger place. I even requested to go there on my birthday one year! Blimpy's really is my all time favorite even though I do like "Little Tony's in Grosse Pointe. I can't imagine any burger comparing to Blimpy's, but I am old and you know how set in our ways us old folks can be. Even though I am related to Kevin and think he is pretty special, this is a pretty cool website, Kev and good luck with it's future to you and Lucas! Linda

I knew that from an early age that Kevin enjoyed a good hamburger. I was trying to teach him what to look for in a good burger and all the knowledge that I had gain over the years. I have gained from teaching Kevin about hamburgers because he has taken me to some of the best!

I'm always looking for a good hamburger and I ran across this website. I was reading about Dan's Tavern in Saline and stopped there on Sunday. It was everything the review said. I ordered the three quarter pound burger with lettuce,tomato and mayonaise. The flavor of the meat was sensational being fresh ground not frozen. The tomatos were actually red,not reddish yellow like the fast food joints and the fresh baked bun from Bennies Bakery across the street was out of this world.On top of having a delicious hamburger there were large TVs all over the place with different sporting events on. The place is amazing.
