BUFFALO BURGERS

I was told that I should stop at this restaurant about ten mile out of Sanderson, TX. I had to go passed it on my way to Alpine. I got there a little before noon and it looked like I was expected because when I got inside I was told to just sit down at a table and my meal would be out for me.

This sort of confused me but the lady who operated the restaurant told me that the pastor who I had stayed with last night told her that I was coming. When the plate was put in front of me, I was amazed at the size of the bun and the burger. They were the size of a dinner plate. She said that this was actually small for a Texas Burger.

When I bit into the burger, I thought it was really great beef but it wasn't. Instead of beef, I was chowing down on buffalo. The buffalo that had supplied it was from the owner's herd. To go along with the burger I got a dinner plate full of homemade fries. I couldn't eat but just half of the burger. I was told not too worry because it would be wrapped up along with the other burger that she had made for me if I had a Texas sized appetite.
