Burger blog from James versus Burger Here James picks out the best alternative-option burgers in Glasgow: Glasgow is in the midst of a burger revolution. Over the past couple of years, the city has become one of the UK's premier destinations for a fantastic burger, stepping up to challenge the likes of London and Manchester as home to some of the best around. At www.jamesvsburger.com, my goal is to find the best that the city has to offer and at times it feels like there are new bars, restaurants and menus popping up with new burgers every other week. It's not all medium-rare patties and grass-fed beef, however! Even if you're not a red meat eater or simply fancy a change from the usual cheeseburger, there are plenty of other options in Glasgow. Here are a few of the best non-beef burgers in the city. "Red Mist" Burger - Nice N Sleazy Awarded the title of "Best Burgers in Glasgow" in 2012 and with good reason. If you've not had a burger from the MeatHammer kitchen in Sauchiehall Street's Nice N Sleazy, you really need to re-write your "to-do" list and put that at the very top. Consisting of a sage, thyme and lemon zest-rubbed chicken breast burger topped with smoked cheddar, mature cheddar, double bacon, tomato, caramelised onion, little gem lettuce, barbecue sauce and hot buffalo sauce on a handmade bun, this burger is certainly something to behold. Easily one of the best non-beef burgers you can ever hope to find - not just in Glasgow, but anywhere. "Nae Meat" - Burger Meats Bun Unless you've been hiding away for the past several months without any visitors, mobile phone or internet access, you've probably heard about Burger Meats Bun by now. The latest addition to Glasgow's burger scene arrived with a bang back in July and had been the subject of much discussion. Their "Smokin" Bacon" burger is one of the best in Glasgow, but what about their veggie option? The "Nae Meat" burger consists of a spiced-bean patty topped with little gem lettuce and vine tomatoes on a brioche bun. It's simple, yet one of the best vegetarian options in the city. 'Fried Chicken Burger' - SMOAK If you're looking for the perfect fried chicken burger, Smoak are your guys. The chicken is fried in chorizo butter and topped with salad, chipotle mayo and paprika gravy on a toasted brioche. Smoak operate out of Sauchiehall street's Variety Bar and Pivo Pivo on Waterloo street. Head to Pivo and order this one with a side of gravy fries and a pint of Innis & Gunn for a simply heavenly experience. The "Big Mackbowski" - Lebowski's This burger certainly isn't for the faint-hearted! A deep-fried chicken fillet using Lebowski's homemade blend of tiger crumb, rolled oats, herbs and spices will be a struggle to finish for some, but worth every bite. Topped with smoked bacon, cheddar and smoked mayo, this is an indulgent burger that is bursting with flavour. I'd recommend this with a side of fries (if you have room!), a helping of Lebowski's amazing smoked chipotle mayo and a pint of Blue Moon to wash it all down with. You'll thank me later. Pork and Chorizo Burger - Curler's Rest Consisting of a pork and chorizo patty topped with caramelized red onion and cheddar cheese (for an extra £1), this burger is the perfect companion for the vast selection of beer that the Curler's Rest offers to its customers. The great thing about this burger is that the chorizo is actually chopped and mixed through the pork patty, rather than simply being placed on top and it's bursting with juices too. To make it even better, make sure you spread some of the excellent homemade burger sauce on the bun. Delicious. Moroccan Lamb Burger - Ad Lib Ad Lib's Moroccan lamb patty was the first one that we ever tried and it's still one of the best. Topped with a lightly spiced Harrisa mayo and tomato salsa on a toasted brioche bun, it's still one of our favourite non-beef burgers many years on. If you want to add to your burger, there's a monstrous amount of additional toppings to choose from too.
