Burger Wars
The burger wars are heating up in the food truck world.
I've written about this before but there are so many entries into this category that I thought I would editorialize it a bit.
In the LA Food Truck World there seems to be 3 categories of burgers.
They are

1. Gourmet
2. Ghetto
3. Internationally inspired

The gourmet burgers are the unusual ones. There were the first ones to appear on the truck scene. With Grill "Em All as the standard-bear in this category the others have a lot to live up to. And some of them do pretty well. Others no so much. Nonetheless trucks like Rounds, Da Burger Boss, Twist Burgers, The Patty Wagon, Red Robin and Baby's Badass Burgers will keep the rockers from Grill 'Em All on their toes.

Now I use the term "ghetto" to describe the next category because some of these are actually trucks attached to some of the great burger joints of South Central. Trucks like Fresh And Meaty, B&R, El Burger Luchador and Caridad Cuisine fall into this category. These trucks keep it simple, hearty and use the best ingredients. Nothing fancy here, just great burgers.

The Internationally inspired ones are the ones that push the boundaries of the burger paradigm. Here you'll find unusual ingredients and new flavors.
Some examples here would be

1. Ta Bom's Hamburgao, features scrambled eggs, bacon, potato stix, corn, mayo, lettuce, tomato and thousand island.
2. Chasing Paradise's Paradise Burger features Filipino cured pork burger, served on a kings Hawaiian bun, with an egg, mango papaya slaw, green onion and cilantro with a garlic aioli 
3. Flatiron's Pork Burger contains 5oz triple pork, bacon tomato jam, pickled red onions arugala & manchego cheese on a brioche bun.
4.  Vizzi's Venison Burger, is a deer meat patty with Maple-Dijon Sriracha Aioli, Charred Sweet Onion, Queso Panela, Bacon
5. Curbside Cravings Tapa Burger,contains Grilled marinated beef patty, topped with cilantro, tomato and egg,on a bed of a special mango-bell pepper slaw with garlic aioli spread
6. Kogi Bbq's Pacman Burger has both of their salsas all three of their meats Sesame mayo  Salad   Chicharrones  Jack and cheddar cheeses.

I've even heard rumors of an Umami Burger food truck. I've never actually seen or come across this truck before so it's existence is questionable but there it is.
There are a lot more examples in this category but you get the idea. 

Whatever you like, you can find on a burger on the LA truck scene. 
So who wins the burger wars.....????

Well it goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway.
You do!
