Eveready Diner In Brewster Is Finalist In DVlicious Burger Contest

BREWSTER, N.Y. -- The burger, America's quintessential comfort food, can be dressed up (think Kobe beef, an expensive cheese, a housemade bun) or down (as in simple ketchup, maybe a pickle). Anyway you flip it, it's a winner.

Eveready Diner, 90 Independent Way, Brewster,  (845) 279-9009

Years in Business: Six 

Number of Burgers Offered: 10

Most Popular: Close call between Bring Home the Bacon Cheeseburger (with smoked bacon and American cheese), the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger (barbecue sauce, bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion) and the Black Jack (Cajun seasonings pan blackened and topped with jack cheese and grilled carmelized onions). 

Secret "Sauce" Behind Burger's Flavor: Using quality fresh ingredients. The diner also cooks its burgers on a flattop which Co-Owner Pete Koliopoulos said helps brings out the flavor. All hamburgers are a half-pound of fresh ground beef which are hand pattied.

Worth Special Mention: Each burger comes with onion rings, fries, coleslaw and tomato and lettuce on the side. Koliopoulos says burgers are one of the diner's highest selling items. "We get deliveries every two days so you know our burgers are super-fresh," he said. Also worth a mention: Glutlen-free buns are available.
