Bacon Cheddar Cheeseburger With Baked Sweet Potato
(The baked sweet potato makes a great quasi-dessert.)
Yes, Outback is an evil chain. Yes, those chains offer an incredible degree of variability from pretty darn good to downright yucky and ew-y! It’s a bit of a gamble. But, we’d still choose Outback over McDonald’s every day of the week. If they’re not mobbed, most Outbacks can get you in and out pretty quick. And, we were feelin’ lucky.
Blushing Pink Medium Goodness
Statistically, the odds really are in your favor. And, this was a downright GOOD burger. Even a bad Outback burger will be more enjoyable than a standard McDonald’s or BK burger each and every time. We’re willing to add half an hour to forty-five minutes to our road trip.
Tip # 1 — We only order the burger. Ever. Period!
(We’re sure the steaks are perfectly “fine”. Thanks, but no thanks to that.)
Tip #2 — Ready? Take notes. This tip is crucial to a successful Outback dining experience. If you want a medium burger at Outback, order it medium rare. It’s really that simple.
iExit
We really enjoyed using iExit on our last roadtrip. It might not be perfect and we did hit one or two restaurants that were no longer in business. But, it still made planning stretching breaks, restroom breaks, and food stops easier.
