This Rhode Island Restaurant Is Home to Its Unorthodox Yet Delicious Peanut Butter Cheeseburger

Some of the most intriguing culinary experiences often involve unexpected ingredients, and tantalizing flavors that fuse perfectly and delight the palate.

I have a knack for seeking out the unconventional on any restaurant menu. Take, for instance, the burger served at Judge Roy Bean Saloon, a culinary gem in the heart of Bristol, Rhode Island. Here, at the corner of Hope and State streets, I had a gastronomical experience unlike any other:

I was introduced to this odd masterpiece by my friend Peter Rosa Janeiro, a regular at the saloon who is well-versed in its offerings. Over a lunch catch-up, he told me tales of his adventures with his loyal canine companion, Lilo. That's when he dropped the burger bombshell.

The Peanut Butter Cheeseburger immediately captivated my senses. The aroma of creamy peanut butter mingling with the rich, savory beef patty wafted through the air, while hints of cinnamon and brown sugar teased my taste buds. The addition of candied bacon provided a delightful contrast of sweetness and salty perfection.

While the presentation may not have been the picture of aesthetic elegance, the true beauty of this burger lay in its flavor profile – a harmonious symphony of contrasting yet complementary tastes.

This burger was a culinary revelation, and I found myself craving more long after the plate was bare.

Accompanied by a side of crisp sweet potato fries and a refreshing, ice-cold beer,my Bristol burger experience was sublime. So, if you ever find yourself in this charming East Bay town, I highly recommend you visit Judge Roy Bean's and inquire about the this legendary peanut butter burger.

Your taste buds will thank you.
