THIS Is A Haloburger, People!

I’ve mentioned Haloburger to a lot of people. They just look at me funny and ask, “A what??” It’s a Haloburger, people! This (yes, look at the picture!) is what it looks like. A quarter-pound of ground beef from Otto W. Liebold in Flint, flattened into a burger, cooked on a seasoned grill, and served on a particular bun from Aunt Millie’s bakery. (I worked at the Grand Blanc location from 1980 – 1981, so I know of what I speak.) I like mine as deluxe, with Hellman’s mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato, a handful of chopped green olives with pimiento, and sliced cheese … with a side of onion rings, and one of the chain’s Vernor’s Cream Ales. The chain is primarily in the Flint area, but for dinner last night and lunch today I ate at the Birch Run restaurant where I took this photo. Yes, absolutely, if you’re in the Flint area you have to try one. Otherwise, yer nuts!

  1. That burger looks at least 10x tastier than the one prepared on my cast iron grill tonite. Only extra mine had was saute mushrooms and my side…sugar-snap peas were’t even close to the looks of those onion rings. I’m thinkin’ that you have an inside source to partake all these good meals 🙂

  2. Actually, this burger was served right over the counter just like anyone else’s. The particular flavor is what’s best about these things. You gotta get to Flint though!
