50 Burgers, 50 States

Food Network did a cross country tour to find the best burger in every State. Talk about a fucking dream job!

Anyway, they picked "The Garbage Burger" @ Hickory Park in Ames as the best burger in Iowa. I confirm that it is a great burger, but my favorite at Hickory Park is probably the Hickory Bacon Quacaomole burger. Also, The Garbage Frank > The Garbage Burger.

My favorite burger in Iowa is probably the Maytag Burger at the Drake Diner though. Either that or Le Royale with Cheese at Django.

This site has the picks by state:

Sounds like a cop establishment to me.

that's a horrible choice
The Garbage Burger is delicious and can last you two meals, but it's a novelty. I'm sure there are better burgers in Iowa. There are better burgers at HP.
