✈️Not every day you have customers take a plane trip just to eat your cheeseburgers🍔
It was such an honor to serve these two gentlemen☺️
"Today is National Cheeseburger Day, so naturally, I had to celebrate the right way..
By flying the plane to Mount Carmel, Illinois, for a "$100 cheeseburger" flight!
And today, I brought my dad along for the ride.
Our destination was Two Farmers, a local spot opened by Chloe and Dillon Farmer back in 2020.
Two Farmers is only open Thursday through Sunday, so check their page for current hours before making the trip.
And after a gorgeous and warm flight, I was ready to land and get that burger!
One thing I already knew... They grind their own beef in-house, and they take their burgers seriously.
So, let's get to the important stuff.
The food!
First up was the Triple Buffy Burger.
This thing comes with 3 smash burgers, pizza seasoning, garlic aioli, Swiss and American cheese, all piled onto a pretzel bun.
And let me tell you..
This burger was AMAZING!
The fries deserve some attention too.
Two Farmers puts their own salty-sweet seasoning on them, and it works.
They were seriously good.
But then..
Things got even better.
Word had got back to owner Dillon that I had
flown into Mount Carmel specifically for his cheeseburger on National Cheeseburger Day.
And Dillon went above and beyond.
He made me something I wasn't even expecting to get today...
The Famous Maple Bacon Double Smashburger.
Now, this burger is normally only available Saturday and Sunday and sells out fast.
Today was Friday so I had zero expectations of getting one.
But Dillon hooked me up.
And folks...
This burger was LIFE CHANGING!
I'm not exaggerating when I say this was one of the best burgers I have ever eaten.
Crispy edges, incredible flavor, maple bacon...
It checked every box.
And honestly, the burger was only part of what made this stop special.
We flew in, grabbed some great food, spent some time together, and got to meet the guy behind the burgers.
For Dillon to hear about our little cheeseburger flight and then go out of his way to make something special for us...
That's the kind of hospitality you remember. Huge Shout out to Grazing Guse for his awesome recommendations!"
