One of Offshore’s rotational specials is a pulled pork burger ($19.80++). I know what you’re thinking as you look at the photo, but hear me out would ya?

It certainly isn’t the most photogenic of burgers out there, and it doesn’t look very promising either. But didn’t your momma ever teach you not to judge a burger by its photo?

The pulled pork was tastefully tender and pleasingly palatable, with just a bit of fat here and there to shake things up a little. The sauce mix they used with the pulled pork was sweet, savory and smoky in all the right proportions. The raw onions did a splendid job of smashing right through the heavy flavors in bursts, keeping the pulled pork from getting monotonous.

However, Offshore should’ve spread some sauce or relish on the buns, as the burger did get quite dry in parts. Also, the bottom bun should’ve been toasted for a little longer, but that might just be a one off issue.

Overall, I’m not convinced that the pulled pork burger is worth $19.80++, but a full pint of Hoegaarden for $10.90++? I’m sold.
