Forget McDonalds, The 6 Oz Cheeseburger From Bad Wolf Burgers In Kentucky Is Where It’s At
While the Bluegrass is world-famous for BBQ and fried chicken, Kentucky is also quite blessed in the burger department. Not only is Kentucky the home of the original cheeseburger, but our state has some of the best diner burgers, five-pound fat burgers, and even hot brown burgers. In terms of the best burger in Kentucky, everyone has an opinion — but today’s feature destination is a place even the most seasoned burger enthusiasts would agree is where it’s at.
In the heart of Horse Country, there's a Big Bad Wolf lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce on a Big... Bad... Wolf Burger!
Family operated since the beginning, Bad Wolf Burgers is anything but ordinary. Located just across from the UK campus, this local favorite serves up award-winning burgers that keep families, hungry students, and burger connoisseurs, coming back again and again.
Our favorite burger from Bad Wolf is the classic cheeseburger: a single, 6 oz, perfectly cooked beef patty topped with cheddar cheese melted to perfection with lettuce, tomato, onion, a pickle. It's a classic, it's a beauty, it's the best darn burger in Kentucky.
Sides are equally important at this Bluegrass burger spot. Will you order homemade potato chips, fresh cut fries (which you can order with a side of beer cheese), sweet potato fries, or tater tots?
There's no Big Bad Wolf in Kentucky, either... at least not that we know of. But if there were a sly, fairy tale villain with ridiculous lung capacity in Kentucky, well, we he would definitely try to blow Bad Wolf Burgers over to get one of these epic cheeseburgers.
Have you been to Bad Wolf Burgers, maker of the best burger in Kentucky? This Lexington diner makes some truly inspired burgers that are anything but bad. (Unless you’re using “bad” as ’90s slang for “awesome,” in which case, these burgers are definitely bad!)
