Husk Tops List of Must-Try Burgers...for Month of May

Just when it seemed like perhaps the Husk Charleston hype had cooled off, Sean Brock's now-iconic cheeseburger landed on an internet listicle of burgers to try this month. The Forbes Travel Guide and Startle.com points out the double patties are made from a famous mix Benton bacon and chuck, topped with shaved and steamed onions and American cheese. OK, sure. But here's the kicker:

"It's served on a toasted, housemade buttermilk and sesame seed bun that's moist and soft, yet with a perfect crunch. Keeping with his farm-to-table philosophy, Brock tops the burger with local lettuce and tomatoes only when they're in season."
