"I believe that the great American hamburger is a thing of beauty, its simple charms noble, pristine. The basic recipe--ground beef, salt, and pepper, formed into a patty, grilled or seared on a griddle, then nestled between two halves of a bun, usually but not necessarily accompanied by lettuce, a tomato slice, and some ketchup--is, to my mind, unimprovable by man or God. A good burger can be made more complicated, even more interesting by the addition of other ingredients--like good cheese or bacon.....relish perhaps, but it will never be made better." - Anthony Bourdain, from the chapter entitled 'Meat', in his book Medium Raw.

Grizzly Bar (Roscoe, Montana)

Just getting to the Grizzly Bar in Roscoe, Montana is an adventure in and of itself.  In fact, they sell shirts proudly emblazoned with the phrase "Where the hell is Roscoe?"  Well, Roscoe is about 80 miles outside of Billings and about 20 miles outside of Red Lodge.  And. it. is. gorgeous.






Our awesome hosts gave us the choice of eating in Red Lodge or driving to "The Grizz" (as the locals call it).  After their description of The Grizz as being a one-of-a-kind place, we knew we had to go there.  S. was immediately sorry she had a burger for lunch because how cool would it be to get a photo of the burger from The Grizz for this blog?  But guest blogger L.W.  offered to take one for the team and order a burger so S. could get a photo.  Mmmm.  It looks delicious.
