Fixing to eat another Elk Burger Hamburger aficionado rates Elk Burger better than Buffalo and Buffalo better than Beef - and she really likes a good hamburger To ColumbiaMagazine.com: If you haven't tried the Elk Burger at Buffalo Hills you have missed a great burger. My husband and I tried one yesterday and we will be back to eat another. We liked the Buffalo Burger, but the Elk is better. It is a moist juicy burger with lots of flavor. We tried the meat without anything on it first so we know the meat was great tasting on its own, but then we added the lettuce, tomato and onion and it was better than any beef burger that I have ever eaten and I really like a good hamburger. No, they aren't paying me to advertise for them but I think we should let the people know when something is good. s/M.E. Lewis 2010-05-25 07:46:30 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Food
