We're going deep with the funk and the jam on this one, like a Grateful Dead-Funkadelic show that never happened in 1976. (But should have!) Slightly sweet fig is presented in jam form, the guitars and bass free-flowing together to top the burger in inspirational and improvisation. And the funk… what brings more funk than blue cheese? (Apologies, James Brown.) Enough pop references from fifty years ago, this burger is music to your tastebuds. Tip: Getting hip to the sticks: halve your potato, then place cut-side down. Slice lengthwise into 1/4" slices, then stack half the potato slices and cut again into 1/4" slices.
