    Greetings from Scotland. When I saw those burgers being cooked, it reminded me of the amount of grease my grandparents used when frying, when I was young (both lived to a ripe old age, by the way). I must admit, they didn’t look appetising when they were frying. But they looked great on the bun! Wouldn’t mind trying one of those (a few thousand miles to travel, but what the heck). For me, the bun looked the best part - what we in Scotland would call a traditional morning roll. There’s nothing worse than this modern fad of serving burgers on those awful brioche things.

    • @goodallscountrykitchen

      All of my grandparents lived to mid and late 90 yrs old, they ate eggs , bacon, sausage ,gravy foods cooked in bacon grease, butter. They lived much longer than the soy boy crowd ever will, also ate hamburgers cooked in all that grease.😮

    Triple snappin turtle move! Woe, I love a greasy burger. Holy cow, that place is really right out of a page of history. Those 3 or 4 fry stations are so funny, but in a good way.

    This and the Eatin' Table down the road were where my wife and I were going to go for her 40th birthday private celebration (we're in Nashville, she taught at WKU in Bowling Green). She felt tired, so we delayed it, and a couple weeks later passed away this past Easter Sunday from the cancer we didn't know she had. I think UA-cam suggested this because I had been going to Maps and looking at our planned trips. I kind of want to go and get two burgers, one for me, and one for her.
