Having some familial Chicago roots, I am a Castle-fan. I warmly remember my Grandfather eating at one of the city's many locations. There was something neat about downing a sack 'o' sliders while being out on the town. I even vaguely recall the midnight "freakshow" at one of the city locations when I was a little kid with my family.
In all fairness, I also really dig the Steak'n'Shake Burger, as well some of the Culver's butter burgers, and even the Carl Jr.'s/Hardees "boigahs."Sometimes I'll even take in a Webb burger (depending on the location--they h'aint too bad).
If you are a Castle fan, you may even pick up a CRAVE CASE (the cardboard suitcase sized box filled with sliders) in the face of shaming crowds of haters. Before their Wisconsin locations, we used to drive across the state line to pick up a cooler load, then drive home and freeze 'em. Whenever you wanted one, pop it into the microwave!
I even make a Castle-slider breakfast sammy: fry or scramble an egg, and top a slider with the egg and some cheese. Goes great with a black coffee!
If you happen to be a slider fan, check out these wild contest-winning recipes using sliders (they actually taste pretty darn good too)!
