"Have you had a burger at Pete's?" they asked. "If you're ever in Prairie du Chien, you have to stop at Pete's Hamburger Stand and have a burger." If you've read much of my blog, you know that, if I was in Prairie du Chien, I was gonna stop at Pete's. Well, Linda and I were in Prairie so we looked up Pete's and tried the burgers. I'm not sure how they're prepared but they are tasty and moist. Linda said it looked like they were resting on the grill in a shallow sea of grease but when we took a bite, they were not greasy. They must have been in a little water, possibly with a very thin layer of melted fat. They were worth the stop. One thing you should know if you're thinking about getting a burger at Pete's: his hours are VERY limited, call ahead.

Pete's are cooked in water and onions, not grease = )
