At first glance, this burger probably appears normal: Pickles, bacon, beef patty. But there's a secret ingredient on there that takes it to the next level...peanut butter! If you hear that and you're like, "Whattt?! PB on a burger? That sounds disgusting" you're so, SO wrong. This burger basically changed my life a few weeks ago.

The combo is what makes it. It's a triple threat - crispy bacon, crunchy dill pickles, and creamy peanut butter. Talk about a heavenly trio of textures. And this isn't just any kind of peanut butter. The burger joint behind this beast, Killer Burger, makes a savory twist on the childhood spread that pairs perfectly with meat. Makes sense, right? The nutty, salty taste of the peanut butter only enhances the meatiness of the beef - and takes the place of cheese. The pickle and bacon are necessary sidekicks for cutting through the creamy PB.

Altogether, this burger is an insane experience. Not only is it super juicy but also full of umami, that savory fifth taste that lingers on your tongue, leaving you wanting more of whatever you're experiencing. After I took my first bite I was still kinda skeptical, but before I knew it I had straight-up devoured the damn thing.
