Best of Burns/Hines - Gyros - RHOJOS

Lunch today at Rhojos sealed the deal on the best gyros sandwich in town, hands down.  My lunch was beef, Debs was lamb. Both were excellent. $6.95 very yummy.

My suggestion for the chef: create a combo beef & lamb version. Very Greek, and I'm in!



Very eye pleasing and tastey side salad with nicely garlicy fresh made ranch dressing.

Best Hamburger in Burns/Hines

Taste results are in. Best burger in town 2011.

This place, my friends, the Meathook Steakhouse, definitely has the best hamburger in Town. As a bonus the basic half pound burger with chips or potato wedges is only $5.95. Now that is worth passing on.




Friendly appreciative staff and cooked to perfection as I had requested,
toasted bun, couple pickles, mayo, tomato, lettuce,
the only thing to improve this would be 2 more pickles and another napkin.

A pig in the ground is worth 2 in the bush

What a wonderful way to end the season. A end of year AAR and pig roast & potluck.


Pig in the Ground.
CAUTION: MEN AT WORK
This is more digging than occurred during the 2009-2010 fire seasons



Posing over the sweet victory, the conquerors and the conquered.


The sweet smell of success

Since this was a potluck, even Dandy shows up with a basket.
Like a Santa with Ho-Ho's!


Whoa Mark, watch your fingers.

A perfect plate of goodness.
Nice work folks, you have another career path if the big government layoff should ever occur.


Excuse me now, I have a plate to clean up.

Quit bashing the McRIB

All those nay-sayers, gleefully hacking apart the McRIB, what say you?
We've read all the negative blogs.  The non-pork pork sandwich is so much more than the chemical dumpster of non-pronounceable ingredients.
It is awesome goodness...........trust me.
