“I like my burgers like I like my men, wet and meaty.”
Costco recently started testing out a new cheeseburger in their food court. But, currently, it's only being tested in a few locations – 10 to be exact.
1,140 calories, though... JEEEZE this is no joke.

Luckily, for us LA locals/serious Costco food lovers, one of those locations is Pacoima, CA. So, we decided to venture the (really not that far in good traffic) 20 minutes north to get a taste of the latest addition to the Costco food court family.
But, would it be worth venturing outside in this HOT AF 98 degrees weather?!

We immediately ordered two cheeseburgers (which cost $4.99 each, plus tax), and were told we'd have to wait seven minutes (so exact!). So when the burgers finally arrived, we were REA-DY.
The foil wasn't exactly fancy, but DAMN, look how big those are! That's a THIRD POUND of meat on each plate.

Before trying them, we got a good look at what we were working with.
The burger was definitely not as "pretty" as the one in the photo (but when are they ever?). However, the bun did look ~buttery~ and there was definitely a thick AF patty in there as well as cheese, lettuce, and tomato – seemed pretty standard.
