Episode III: Revenge of the Beef

You have no idea how hungry we get writing these articles. | @mordgeld

My goodness, y’all really like burgers. We keep receiving recommendations from you, our readers, of burger places we need to visit + add to our list.

Luckily for everyone involved, we love to eat. So we’ve got five more burger spots for you to dine at around the Farm-to-Fork Capital.

🍔LowBrau, 1050 20th St.
While it may be best-known for its various sausages, the LB Burger + its pretzel bun are not to be slept on.

🍔Pangaea Bier Cafe, 2743 Franklin Blvd.
Pangaea’s signature burger has won the Sacramento Burger Battle multiple times, including in 2015, 2016, and 2018.

🍔Bones Craft Kitchen, 113 D St., Davis
If you like your burgers with some extra heat, the El Diablo Burger — topped with pickled jalapenos + spicy steak sauce — is right up your alley.

🍔Crepes & Burgers, 8000 Auburn Blvd.
Can’t decide between breakfast + a burger? Grab the Louie Burger and enjoy bacon and an over-medium fried egg as toppings.

🍔Krush Burger, 1151 Galleria Blvd.
Krush’s variety of gourmet mini burgers — like the Cowbell with bacon, crispy onions, and barbecue sauce — are great for both feeling like a giant + stuffing your face.

WWE Superstar Bill Goldberg on the sidelines for the Sacramento Surge

WWE Superstar Bill Goldberg played defensive tackle for the Sacramento Surge. | @goldberg95

Today I learned that Sacramento once had a professional football team — the Sacramento Surge — which played two seasons as part of the World League of American Football, the precursor to the now-defunct NFL Europe. The Surge even became the only American team to win the league’s championship, known as the World Bowl, after the 1992 season.

The craziest part? WWE superstar Bill Goldberg played defensive tackle for the championship team. 🤯
