For a limited time, Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom is offering a one pound pizza burger on their 40th Anniversary menu. I was more than intrigued when I first heard about it, and finally got a chance to give it a try this week.
The burger sports a one pound hamburger patty, sandwiched between two pub pizzas that are topped with Italian sausage and pepperoni.
Oh yeah, this behemoth is also served with sides of onion rings, fries, and ranch dressing.
This pizza burger was incredible, and had neither too much or too little of any one ingredient. The proportions were spot on as well. The pub pizza buns held up perfectly, and worked nicely with the massive hamburger patty.
My burger was cooked perfectly, with the center right on the verge of turning from pink to light brown. The outside of the patty had a nicely seasoned and crispy char to it.
No other condiments are added to the burger, apart from a nice layer of pizza sauce on the bottom "pub pizza bun".
A bit on the pricey side at $19.76, the burger was still worth every penny, and is totally big enough to split with someone.
I love burgers, and I'm of course a pizza addict, so this wild creation was right up my alley. If you are adventurous enough to give it a try, get to your nearest Old Chicago Pizza and Taproom soon, as it's not going to be around for very long.
