12 Days of Burgers - The Best Burger Conquest Stories of 2009

After consuming a whopping (no pun intended and no Whopper eaten) 156 burgers in 2009, I thought it might be fun to count back some of my favorite burgers of the year. While everyone else was putting together lists of their favorite burgers (A Hamburger Today has a particularly good one, 3 of which I was present for the consumption), I thought it would be to give my list a little twist! If you wanted to know what we rank as the best burgers, it's ALWAYS listed on the upper right corner of the site. Re-posting would be pointless.

So, in the tradition of "12 Days of Christmas" I give you the final tally in my "12 Days of Burgers," the 12 best Burger Conquest stories of 2009.
