This Regional Restaurant Is One Of Indiana’s Favorite Places To Dine

You know, we Hoosiers are pretty lucky. We live in a beautiful state, with plenty of natural and man-made wonders to celebrate. Our restaurant scene is especially vibrant, with plenty of regional spots you'll only find here (or in select states... but mostly here). One such regional restaurant in Indiana is the local legend known as Bub's Burgers (not to be confused with the delightful animated series of a similar name); with a couple of locations in-state, you can't go wrong. Oh, and this awesome little burger joint in Indiana is hiding a big, ugly secret, too. Come see.

Bub's Burgers and Ice Cream is a heavy-hitter when it comes to local faves.

At the time of this writing, there are locations in Zionsville, Carmel, Bloomington, and Westfield. Lucky, lucky us!

It's a wonderfully family-oriented sort of place, with a small menu full of enormously tasty things.

So, what's so "ugly" about it, then?

This. This is.

Introducing The Big Ugly, a gigantic one-pound (AFTER cooking!) burger made of the freshest ground beef you've ever tasted.

To say it's huge is a bit of an understatement.

....a huge one, if you will.

Of course, if noshing on 16 ounces of ground beef isn't really your thing, you can always go for the smaller options, too - there's an 11-ounce, a six-ounce and even a cute lil' three-ouncer to choose from.

No matter what you pick, you're gonna love it.

The buns are made fresh, in-store, and the toppings are always perfectly prepped and placed.

Since 2005, Bub's Burgers has been serving up the best burgers-n-shakes in the Hoosier State. It's a must-do for locals and visitors alike.

Trust me: this one's worth whatever drive you'll need to take to get to any of its locations.
