At Last, a 5 Pickle Burger!!!!!
Yes, a Five Guys Burgers and Fries Burger has topped the list! Sherelene and I were coming back from Knoxville and stopped by the Emory Road Five guys off the Powell Exit on I-75. Now before I start don’t get me wrong, I’ve rated Five Guys Burgers very high in the past, but they are not all in the mid 4+ pickles. The making a burger is more about the people that craft it, and the Emory Road Store has Allen, a master burger maker! He and Cody (the Assistant Manager) took great care of us, and the General Manager of that store, Jody, and I had a great conversation, I’m pretty sure he thought I was nuts whenI told him I was a cheeseburger expert, but now he can read the review!
I’ve had a lot of great burgers, but have, before today, refused to give any a full 5 Pickles on my scale, but this one deserved it, absolutely a great burger! So to Allen, You’re the man, Cody, great service and Jody, you were a good sport treating this crazy bearded guy like he really knew what he was talking about! Check out the rating! It’s for real!
Blessings,
the pilgrim

And after years of traveling all over the country to think it was almost in our backyard. Yep, I will be stopping.
It’s worth the stop my friend!

Do you need help revising your will?
Poor maligned Fred’s Grill. And to think that at one time you deemed it so close to a five pickle burger that you revamped your counting system to include decimal places. Now Fred’s is just a lowly 4.9. How quickly they (ie, you) forget. Someday you and I and some friendly witnesses are going to return to Fred’s for a rematch. May the best burger win!
We just got a Five Guys by us. Love it.
Hope you had fun here while you were in Knoxville. 🙂 I’m hoping to catch one of your Smokies workshops when my son gets a bit older. Do you have any favorite spots in the Cumberland Gap area?
Love Knoxville!
