I've never had a burger that I would describe as 'metal' and perhaps that's why I'm missing out. One epic Illinois burger was just ranked among the 10 best burgers in America and it really does rock - almost literally. TV food celebrity Guy Fieri thinks so, too.

If you look at Yelp's ranking of the top 100 burgers in America, you'll see an Illinois entry at #9. It's one of the most unique burgers you'll ever see and that includes the naming schemes.

Have you ever been to a burger place that has choices named after Metallica and Slayer? As NBC Chicago mentioned, Guy Fieri featured Kuma's Corner on Diner's, Drive-Ins and Dives years ago.

This is Kuma's Corner on Belmont in Chicago, Illinois and they really do make burgers that rock. The reviews on Yelp tell the story of why this Illinois place is special:

  • "Burgers and heavy metal, my favorite."
  • "Venture into the heart of metal paradise at this burger joint that effortlessly blends unique vibes with a cool, edgy atmosphere"
  • "burgers named "Black Sabbath," "Iron Maiden," and "Led Zeppelin,"

Burgers are such a difficult food to rate as everyone has loves and hates about what makes a certain one great. But, when hundreds of Yelp reviews agree with a food celebrity like Guy Fieri says something about a place being special. That's likely why many metal heads who love burgers include Kuma's when they adventure in and around Chicago.
