The bacon bomb explosion burger has been crowned the peoples' choice award winner for the Florida State Fair.The bacon bomb explosion burger beat out three other burger concoctions during online voting.
The winning burger features fresh ground chuck, with ranch, BBQ sauce and a special seasoning. After the addition of some bacon crumbles, the meat is wrapped in a lattice of fresh bacon and slow roasted with hickory smoke until golden brown, then sliced into patties. This mouthful of a burger is served on a Kaiser roll with a slice of cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles and, for the adventurous, a few more strips of bacon.
The burger edged out the runner up, Redneck Burger, which is a fresh burger patty, with bacon and cheese, fried bologna, baked beans, potato sticks, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle, on a toasted bun.
The French toast burger was a close third. This breakfast-inspired burger featured a burger patty topped with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle, sandwiched between slices of homemade French toast and drizzled with a special sauce.
In fourth place was the ice cream burger, a beef patty with cheese bacon, tomato, onion and pickle, and topped with a coated scoop of Mexican-style fried ice cream.
