It’s York Fair time, and also time for the annual emergence of Bury’s burgers at Johnny Eagles’ stand and perhaps elsewhere.
I know one veteran fair-goer who likes Bury’s and clearly isn’t dissing them.
And he’s sure there’s something special in that sauce… .
But it sure looks like only tomato sauce with onions in there.
I’ll go to the fair this week just to taste my first Bury’s burger.
You’ll read about the results here first.
