Burgermeister Food Truck

I don’t think I’ve ever loved a french fry as much as the ones from Burgermeister. They do something magical to them and I can’t help but eat the entire bag. The portions are massive and the burgers are pretty damn delicious as well. They come to my place of employment once a week and we can text in our orders which is super convenient when it’s not nice enough to stand outside waiting for your food.

I guess I don’t see it. I had the baconmeister. I felt it was overpriced. Biggest disappointment was the cold grocery store bun on which it was served. There are a lot better places to get burgers that cost the same (granted they are not food trucks). As much as I hate to say it, I don’t know if I’d try them again.

This burger truck ROCKS, plain and simple. I don’t eat meat and get the portabella burger as often as possible. Trust me, like heaven on a bun. LOVE!

I got the portobello meister and was impressed with the large slices perfectly fried to a crisp with great flavor. I would definitely get that again. Also impressed by the friendly service and passion for food from the owner.

I love Burger Meister! Their burgers are fresh and delicious. Along with good Ol’ ground chuck, they also have portobello, Mahi Mahi, and black bean. Burgers come with homemade chips or fries. Service is fast and very friendly. I love Food Truck season in Milwaukee and this is one of my favs!

I always am looking for and seeking out a good burger… and these folks NEVER disappoint me at all!!! The burgers are juicy, creative, and most of all DELICIOUS! I keep going back to them for a reason and the customer service is just as good, so there is absolutely no let down!

Holy Cow! I had heard about this food truck and to be honest wasn’t sure if any food truck could live up to the hype I was hearing about it. Well, I got my chance to try them out when they parked outside the Chase Bank building in downtown Milwaukee recently. It was off the chain good! The fries must be sprinkled with crack instead of salt because I am addicted! SO GOOD! And the burger… ambrosia! And the price point for the burger, fries and a soda at $ 8 is a bargain for a lunch in downtown. The the best part are the personnel, nicest people on the planet. I love Burgermeister!

Really liked the menu! Great variety in the burgers and offer a burger of the day. Ordered the garlic burger. I love garlic and would have loved to taste a little more garlic. The burger came with either homemade chips or fries and a drink. I had my kids along so I settled on the chips. Burger was cooked well done (not good) with a very thin piece of cheddar cheese on top. (Couldn’t taste the cheese). Best part of the burger was the brioche bun and veg.
As for the chips.
My kids love chips and they couldn’t even eat one. Each chip was so soft that I believe they forgot to turn on the fryer. I immediately threw them in the garbage.
It’s too bad, I often do not get a chance to come down to the food trucks. I always give everyone a second chance so I hope next time they blow me away.

The food truck bar has been raised.
This has happened quite a bit in recent years as more and more vendors throw their hat into the ring.
There was less than the average number of trucks at the Courthouse, but I knew I was choosing this truck right away based upon the great review that Rick R. gave it.
The menu is extensive for a food truck with 8 different options plus a daily special. In addition to variations on burgers there are portabello, mahi-​mahi and bean burgers too.
I must admit I was very intrigued by the mahi burger, but decide that should not be my inaugural choice from any truck. So I went with the portobello burger and I’m sure glad that I did.
I’ve had portobello burgers often in many establishments, but none quite like this. The mushroom is lightly breaded in seasoned panko and quickly fried to create the most tasty of crusts. Think of the best portobello fries you’ve ever had. Optional toppings are lettuce, tomato, onion and a perfectly balanced chipotle mayo. These tasty layers of goodness are nested inside a beautiful fresh brioche roll to create the perfect lunch time meal.
All burgers are served with a side of house made chips or fries and a canned beverage. The house made chips sounded interesting and tasted that way too. Some were better than others (the good ones were sliced thinner) depending on thickness and seasoning. If they can consistently turn out thinner and even seasoned chips they’ll really be on to something.
But since this is a very new entry into the Milwaukee food truck game, and the mushroom burger was so fantastic right out of the gates, I will definately go back and wouldn’t hesitate to try the mahi and you shouldn’t either!

I’ve had a few burgers from this truck over the past couple of months. All of their burger patties are ¹⁄₃ pound and served on a buttered brioche bun.
On my first visit, I ordered the Baconmeister. It was described with bacon ground into the beef mix for the patty and topped with bacon, so yes, I wanted it. I told them I didn’t want any toppings so I could «taste the meat.» I think this confused them because they left off the veggies and cheese but also left off the bacon!!!
I told them about this the second time I ordered the Baconmeister. They apologized and gave me free day-​time weekday Summerfest tickets. This time the burger was topped with everything. I didn’t want to risk losing the bacon.
The patty was pretty good. It was well-​seasoned but I didn’t notice the bacon. The bacon on top of the patty made up for it.
I was also surprised that they put the lettuce, tomato and onion under the patty. The taste buds are on my tongue, not the roof of my mouth. I don’t want to taste veggies first (after the bun), I want to taste the burger. I took the veggies off anyway this time, so I could try and focus on the patty.
Both times the patty was cooked a bit above medium, so when I unwrapped the burger, there were burger juices flowing out. I like that.
The fries were fresh cut and seasoned well, so I enjoyed them even though they were on the soggy side. I guess the trick is to fry them more then once for crispiness but then you risk unpleasant color on the fries and potentially unpleasant taste.
Not sure how to make the the happy medium other than constantly changing the oil, but that can be costly and cumbersome. I’ll leave that to the pros to figure out.
For $ 9, this burger included chips or fries and a drink, so good value. This was in mid-​June.
I noticed their prices went up a buck last week or the week before, so I passed on them, but today the prices were back to the original prices from my first 2 visits. Game on.
Today I ordered the Garlicmeister. Had my eye on it for a while.
A garlic-​herbed butter is spread over the patty. I lifted the top bun and saw finely minced garlic all over it. Yes!
Watch out butter burgers, garlic butter burgers are my new preference for naughtiness!
The burger patty was still well-​seasoned and the minced garlic butter added a great dimension. If I get this again, I’ll add bacon.
I might not try again because they changed the fries today. Last month fresh cut seasoned fries. Today battered (I presume frozen) and seasoned fries. They were fine, but I don’t like the texture of battered fries. They don’t feel like potatoes. They don’t taste like potatoes to me. They were crispier than the fresh cut fries and I’ll assume that’s what they were going for, but I prefer the fresh cut they made last month.
I may ask for a discounted price and skip the fries and drink next time. Seems silly to buy a bag of chips from a food truck when I can get those anywhere.
Burgermeister also features a special burger of the month, or week, or day. I forget. Today’s was a French Onion Burger with caramelized onions, gryere and asiago cheese for $ 11. $ 10 is my threshold for lunch, so I passed.
Burgermeister provides great customer service. They really hustle on that truck and they make good burgers. Worth checking out if you haven’t already.

I have been known to be a little bit of the Milwaukee Burger King. Always on the hunt for the best burger. I’m down to try a new burger almost anywhere, anytime, especially when a food truck shows up in my office park on Tuesdays. The Burgermeister? Of course I had to try!
First and foremost, customer service was awesome. You can tell that the 3 of them were having fun, and when you like what you do, you usually do a dang good job of it, and it showed. Burger was up really quickly, and it looked delicious.
I won’t lie, it wasn’t the best quality burger I’ve had… but it was still pretty dang tasty. It had that… cooked on a charcoal grill, 4^th of July festivities taste to it that I love… but something was missing. If they came up with some sort of special sauce to add to the burger, this burger would be small… but pretty epic.
I didn’t like the homemade chips at all. I couldn’t tell if they were supposed to be warm and just out of the fryer, or cold like a regular potato chip… because I had both in my bag. One chip tasted fresh and delicious, the next was cold and almost soggy… and gross. I’ll definitely try the fries next time.
Price point was a bit higher than most for what they offered, but it’s still not a bad deal at all when a truck shows up to your workplace and you don’t have to decide whats for lunch today.
I’m a fan, and since they just started, I’m sure they will only get better with time. I’ll definitely be adding this to my regular Tuesday Food Truck rotation.
