May is National Burger Month. Yes, you read that correctly. And this important cause needs your help. There are no colored bracelets to wear to raise awareness, though. The only thing you need to do is eat hamburgers. Lots of them. And if you head up to Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, CT for some gambling or a show, you can have a different burger every day of the month.
Mohegan Sun’s numerous restaurants teamed up to create 31 unique burgers that they will serve all month. Try one a day, one at each meal or, hey, go for the gusto and have a 31-burger day. It’s like Baskin-Robbins’ 31 flavors but with more bacon.
The hardest part (other than fitting into your pants afterward) is deciding which burgers to try. Some of my favorites:
SolToro Burger at SolToro Tequila Grill: Ground sirloin seasoned with Mexican herbs and spices, topped with chihuahua cheese, guacamole, grilled onions, fire-roasted poblano rajas and bacon.
Chili Size at Johnny Rockets: Served open-faced with our exclusive all-meat chili and topped with grated cheddar cheese and chopped onions.
The Bayou Burger at Big Bubba’s BBQ: Burger topped with ham and cheddar cheese.
Of course, you can head over to Margaritaville for their Cheeseburger in Paradise. But, you can also get a burger from room service while you are in the hotel, in case you are in a food coma and can’t get out of bed. Just be sure to bring some pants with an elastic waistband.
