🍔 Banh-mi burger (45 of 50) 🍔
PJ's Pub Narragansett Beer
Smell: fresh lettuce, jalapeños and cucumbers on the top bun refresh the nostrils with a whiff of clean fresh air. The bottom bun is loaded with savory meat that heats my nostrils up with a hint if spice and umami

Appearance: a bed of green vegetables consisting of jalapeños, cilantro and cucumber sits on a layer of umami mayo. Crispy pork belly glazed with hoisin sauce rests ontop of a burger that also sits on umami mayo. Also under the burger is pickled carrots and daikon radish.

First bite: the first bite to this burger is very refreshing, definitely a good blast of lime and the veggies on the top bun. As I sunk through the veggies I hit the meat, the hoisin sauce on the crispy pork belly had the perfect amount of crunch, then my teeth sink into the perfectly cooked burger patty, which is a pj's classic. Once through the patty I hit another layer of umami but this time mixed with pickled Daikon and carrots.

Continuing eating: as I continued to eat this burger I was super super happy. Each bite was unique and consistent at the same time. This was a very well balanced with each bite.

After eating: I thoroughly enjoyed the crispy pork belly covered in the hoisin sauce, that stuck out the most to me. This was a super creative burger and does justice to a traditional banh-mi sandwich.

Final score: 9.7/10, with this burger there's no denying consistency, creativity and the overall flavor of the burger. Good job Sam!

🍔 Chicken Parm Cheeseburger (44 of 50) 🐔
PJ's Pub Narragansett Beer
Smell: the davis family legacy marinara tingles my nose! This is a great smelling burger, the whiffs of parmesan call me forth!

Appearance: this is a saucy burger, they say ladle but it seems like more! The chicken is masked with the sauce and below that rests a provolone covered burger patty.

First bite: holy flavor! The sauce truly stands out and kept me coming back for more bites. The chicken is perfectly cooked. The burger meat makes the meal feel like a ground beef heart pasta sauce.

Continuing eating: this burger is super delicious, but it is on the messier side.

After eating: as I was nearing the end of this burger I realized that the burger was wider than the chicken, in return throwing off the bite ratio of chicken to burger which was pretty even with the first few bites. Not the end of the world but definitely something to take note of.

Final score: 8.3/10

The Elvis burger (43 of 50)

Smell: the scent of peanut butter isn't really present, I didn't get a whiff of bacon. I did tho get a whiff of the caramelized banana.

Appearance: thus burger is dripping with warm peanut butter. Bacon over hangs the sides. The banana is tucked away in there. And it's all sitting on a pretty lil patty.

First bite: a little reluctant, but I dig my teeth into the burger. The warmed peanut butter has a sweet hint to it. I didn't get the greatest bite of banana but I got a bit of its texture, which wasn't much. The bacon was good!

Continuing eating: as I continued to eat, I noticed the banana had really little to no flavor. The taste of peanut butter and the crunch of bacon were the most noticeable.

After eating: at most, I got the slightest hint of banana, most of the sweetness I tasted came from the peanut butter.

Final score: 5.9/10, this is a heavier burger, its got good crunch, the peanut butter is somewhat overpowering and the banana isn't that prevalent.

Muenster Smash Burger (42 of 50)
PJ's Pub
Smell: the heat of the burger warms the other ingredients, rising the scent of avocado, cheese and Chipotle aioli of the sandwich.

Appearance: the appearance of this burger scared med at first, a grimacing smile (carved Muenster cheese), beat red pupils (olives) and sharp and alert ears (jalapeño chips). This burger is a frightful sight!

First bite: First I eat all the toppings, the succulent olives and crisp chips. My first bite its well balanced and follows with the flavor profile of the garnishing.

Continuing eating: as I continued to eat, I was no disappointed, it was well balanced and every bite was thoroughly enjoyable.

After eating: After eating I was significantly less scared of this burger, and totally more satisfied. It's was terrifyly delicious.

Final score: this burger takes the number 16 spot with a 7.95/10. It definitely earned some style points.

Cons: beyond style, it wasn't too unique or crazy but it stayed on theme!

🐊🍔 Cajun Alfredo burger (41 of 50)
PJ's Pub
Smell: thus burger comes with a separate sauce which is cajun Alfredo. It smells cheesy with light hints of spice, probably due to the Alfredo mellowing out the scent.
The burger reeks of andouille sausage and WOO WEEEEE! I'm ready to dig on in!

Appearance: this is a stacked burger, loaded heavy on meat. The provolone skirts around the sides. Typical bun nothing special, let's dig on in and test it out.

First bite: this first bite was spicy and cheesy. The cajun Alfredo dipping sauce and sausage both have a serious zing to them.

Continuing eating: the burger is great and comes in with a lot of flavor. The dipping sauce is great, but it gets stiff pretty quick, still a great dipping sauce.

After eating: this burger is a filling burger, it's definitely on the heavier side. It's flavorful and spicy. It's got unique properties and it's not like your average burger. Final score: 6.3/10, this burger is loaded with flavor but it's nothing super super special, it's doesn't compare to other burger of the weeks super well, thus it claims the number 33 spot.

Cons: Alfredo stiffened up quick, sausage was a bit over powering. The spice level is bearable but if burger cools down you have to power through to eat it.
