Culling at Culver’s

Bottle Rockets fans know sandwiches. They do. Reading their words I was sandwich-struck. The scales fell away and my eyes turned to mayo whites circling green-olive-slice pupils.

Recently the resurfacing sandwich thread on the Bottlerockets message board lauded Culver’s

preferred by some to Kopp’s, a beloved Milwaukee burger and custard bastion. When driving around Wisconsin with my mother she is constantly at my elbow, finagling a Culver’s lunch. Culver’s is a chain, doncha know. A chain of love. Custard love.

Sonofdad started the Culver’s thing:

I love Culver’s in Wisconsin. I know it’s a chain but I really like it. It’s better than Kopp’s. The Butter Burger, best hangover food EVER. The burgers are bigger than the buns. Yummy!

Amazing Bob:

I’m always up for a Rueben or a Pork Tenderloin from Culvers….not forgetting the cheese curds either…mmmmm.

Bharroun:

I could literally eat their Walleye sandwiches morning, noon & night.

Bharroun headed out for recon:

Did the Culver’s thing for lunch yesterday. Unfortunately, the Walleye fillet was smaller than previous years, and had a noticeably “river” taste about it.

The cheese curds, were, however, spectacular. As was the frozen custard.

They have Chicken Fried Steak on the menu now – that will be my choice next time around.

Chicken Fried Steak?!? A ha, Culver’s has outposts in Texas. The Walleye Sandwich is apparently a seasonal special. It has been theorized that it surfaces for Lent. I want some. May have to swear off east coast living for Lent in order to get it.
