I love 'em both - but I prefer Swingbelly's. I just think thier burgers taste better on all fronts - the meat, the cheese, the bun - damn - now I want one! Redamak's is a very close 2nd - but for me, Swingbelly's is the champ. When I bandy for bovine in patty form that's whare I'd rather go!

Let's vote!

For me its like a choice between the natural beauty or the girl who is a knock out when all done up.

Redamaks by itself is a great burger, even without all of the extras. Swingbelly's add ons for their specialty burgers ( I LOVE the A1 burger) make them into a knockout.

Being the kind of guy that prefers the all around beauty, I went with Red's

For me, I went Swingbelly's no toppings vs. Redamak's no toppings.

I think we may have to do a burger challenge.

I see it as two parties each order burgers to go from both Redamak's and Swingbelly's simultaneously. Then both parties head to Washington Park, or possibly some point midway between the two locations, where the burgers are compared in a side by side taste test.


Mod note: edited thread title for spelling

We are tied at 5 votes each after all... Being the fearless leader that I am, I will be willing to take that bullet for the team.

I have a feeling I'd show up with an empty burger box and crumbs on my shirt.

How would that be different than normal?

If you're really going to do it right, I'd say gather up the best 8/16 burger places and bracket them up March Madness style. Of course, that might make it a multi-day affair, unless there were some judges with impressive appetites.

I don't remember saying it would be different.....

Jackass.

"Judges with impressive appetites..."

Where do I sign up?

Wow - still tied. Anyone want to break the tie?

Red's is back on top!!

I don't think anyone's going to vote further - so I declare Redamak's the winer of this poll!
