Another Day Another Happy JoelBurger Customer!

Jerry Hammock wolfed down half of his JoelBurger in about 2 minutes. He was so delighted at his new discovery of lunchtime fare that he glady showed off his remaining burger that he eagerly consumed after this picture.

Remembering our Veterans

In addition to models discovering the JoelBurger, it is better honor to know that members of the the local VFW post 2087 are big fans of the JoelBurger. At their most successful blood drive back on September 11th, they celebrated with the crew from Fort Bragg by ordering a half dozen JoelBurgers to share with the tired and hungry nurses. Many said it was the best burger they have ever tasted and they can't wait to come back to Greensboro. However many have been called back to serve in Iraq.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to servicemen of past and current conflicts and we look forward to future opportunities to witness their satisfied smiles after eating the JoelBurger and to thank them personally for all that do for us!

God Bless America!

Introducing The World Famous Joel Burger Blog

Welcome to the first ever (that we know about) blog for a burger. Since this is no ordinary burger, many have urged us to start a blog to share with the world the splendid taste of The Joel Burger. By reading this blog you will not find political discourse, answers to the world's biggest problems, and other bloggish scriblings that you can easily find on other blog sites.

However, what you will find is a tribute to the simple, enjoyable taste of a scrumptious pimento cheeseburger- more on the ingredients later. We feel it is important to forget the world's problems, diets, to do lists, phone calls, emails, faxes, text messages, bills, and other distractions and just sit and enjoy the sensation of the fresh grilled burger passing over your taste buds and fill your digestive tract with 100% Grade A, tender Angus beef.
