Blvd. • Weslaco, TX 78596 • 956-520-8783 WINTER TEXAN SPECIAL FREE FRIES 1/2 Basket With Park Badge One of my favorite moments when I go to Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers is when I take my first bite of the steakburger patty that is by itself, a patty larger than the bun it hides inside and a piece that sticks out. It’s not touched at this point by any of the condiments and it is a savory taste of a well-seasoned patty. It’s not just salted down, but sprinkled with their own concoction, Freddy’s Famous Steakburger & Fry Seasoning. It’s a mixture of salt, garlic, paprika and other spices that brings out the patty’s flavor like no other patty I’ve tasted other than what my mom would make when I was growing up. Of course, the rest of the double cheese steakburger (with grilled onions of course - everything needs grilled onions) is just as delectable. While many may know Freddy’s from its amazingly refreshing and creamy custards, their steakburgers are a gem to partake as well. The patties are thin, large, and cooked to perfection. A steakburger is different from your ordinary burger patty. It is not ground up hamburger meat – it is a full thin slice of steak that has been tenderized and flattened to form a patty just perfect for their buns. At Freddy’s, you can really taste the difference. On this occasion I visited the McAllen location, near the McAllen Convention Center. I wasn’t really in the mood for fries, but I really enjoy their beefy and not watered-down chili, so I ordered cheese curds – with chili and cheese on top. This was a meal unto itself, and I was so in tune with my burger and curds that I completely forgot to ask for some jalapenos. It really didn’t need any though because the rush of flavors was immense... and I didn’t want to completely lose the taste from that first bite. Of course, nothing cleans and refreshes the palate better than some frozen custard, so I imbibed on the Hawaiian Delight sundae. You can also get this in a “concrete,” which is usually my choice but for this day, I felt like a sundae. It was the perfect ending to a perfect beginning.
