In the 8th Annual BEST IN TEXAS edition we threw down the gauntlet challenging readers to eat the TOP 10 Readers’ Choice Hamburgers in 10 days. Weeks passed as we wondered if anyone would be able to accomplish such a feat as to eat 10 hamburgers located all across the Great State of Texas in just 10 days. Is it possible? Should it even be attempted?
We asked questers to send in photos of themselves with a burger at all of the TOP 10 burger spots, and then we waited for the champions-to-be to get busy.
And lo, they did, but only one man claims the title. We’d like to christen Motorbike Mike McMahan, of Houston the RIDE TEXAS® 10 BEST Burger Quest Champion. He quested with style and a sense of humor, always a good combination.
After such an epic quest he said just this, “I just completed my Burger Quest. Great roads, great hamburgers and lots of friendly people. I gained 10 pounds and my cholesterol level has spiked but it was all well worth it.” Congratulations, kudos and “wowee!” to Motorbike Mike a 2010 10 Best Burger Quest Champion. Here are the photos from his burger-based journey across Texas.
Our sincerest congratulations to Motorbike Mike! We hope it was as fun to do as the photos made it look.
If you have quested or want to quest, then by all means take your best shot. Can you be a 10 BEST Burger Quest Champion? Heck, if you take some nice photos, we may even do an article about you.
