A Beauty from Bartlesville

This mouthwatering (or stomach-churning) creation is Justin's favorite: a world-famous Murphy's Hot Hamburger from Murphy's Steakhouse in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. It starts from the bottom up with two slabs of buttery texas toast , then a big sirloin patty, then a mound of fries, and then all of the above drowned in brown gravy. This particular specimen was transported from Bartlesville to Fort Gibson by Justin's grandma Ruby and reassembled for his pure Fat Guy delight. He has tried to figure out a way to have one FedEx'ed to him up here in Michigan but that plan hasn't come to fruition yet. The first photo is the famous Murphy's, home of the Hambuger. Notice the eloquent, distinctively Oklamahanian name of the gas station in the background.Murphys_steak_houseVachome3
