We all have our favorite hamburger spot, right?
Southern Living, in its May edition,
came out with a list of favorites across South Carolina, and suggestions on which burger to order.
The Macintosh in
Charleston: The Mac ($13), “made of house-ground beef and topped with apple-wood smoked Nueske’s bacon and aged Cheddar cheese.”
Moe’s Crosstown Tavern in Charleston: The Eye-Opener ($8) “combines the best of the cow and chicken using the gloriously runny yolk of a sunny-side-up egg as a silky sauce.”
Ike’s Korner Grille in
Spartanburg: The Bologna Burger ($5.50), with “so much fried bologna, bacon, chili and more on this burger that many regulars ask for it without the spicy stuff.”
Pawleys Front Porch in
Columbia: The Wadmalaw ($10.50), which combines fried pickles “with bacon and Cheddar and slathering the whole thing with chipotle barbecue sauce.”
Poe’s Tavern in Sullivan’s Island: The Annabelle Lee ($12), a “crab cake-topped burger that comes with a house-made veggie remoulade sauce.”
Shrimp Shack, 1925 Sea Island Parkway,
St. Helena Island: The Shrimp Burger ($6.25), which “relies on small, tender shrimp for its sweet, slightly briny flavor.”

Greenville: The Chili-Cheeseburger ($3), “made the way they’ve been since the 1950s, with a slice of American cheese and a hefty scoop of homemade chili.”
