Mike’s Food Truck har serverat burgare runt om i Örebro och Kumla sedan 2015. Vi recenserade dem redan 2016, men numera har de bytt ägare och vi det var hög tid att testa dem igen. Vid det här besöket stod trucken på Stortorget i centrala Örebro. Menyn rymde en handfull olika hamburgare, och vi beställde en Classic Cheese med cheddar, picklad lök, picklad gurka, senap och ketchup samt en Bacon & Cheese med cheddar, bacon, rödlök, tomat, dijonmajonnäs och bbq-sås. Burgarna kostade 90 respektive 100 kronor styck, och vi lade till ytterligare en 113-gramsköttpuck för 30 kronor på båda.

Våra burgare såg riktigt inbjudande ut när vi fick dem. Deras egenbakade bröd var gyllenbrunt och glansigt, och hade en härligt krispig stekt insida. Köttet hade en generös stekyta, en rejäl kryddning och ett saftigt inre. Bacon & Cheese är deras storsäljare, och det var också vår klara favorit av de två vi testade. Baconet i den var knaprigt med en lätt rökighet och lagom sälta, och den lite salta dijonmajonnäsen och den söta bbq-såsen knöt ihop smakbilden med en trevlig texturvariation från grönsakerna. Classic Cheese hade tyvärr en mycket spretigare smakbild, och hade alldeles för hög syra i flera av ingredienserna. Det rejäla lagret tunt skivad picklad lök tog över, och inläggningslagen blötte upp burgaren och gjorde den kladdig. Picklesen var även den tunt skivad, och tillförde inte någon smak utan gjorde bara allt blötare. Den innehöll även för mycket senap, vilket bidrog till den övergripande syran.

Mike’s Food Truck är burgarveteraner, så vi var lite förvånade att det blev så blandade intryck. Vår Classic Cheese kändes ofokuserad och lite slarvig, men Bacon & Cheese gav mersmak och gjorde oss sugna på ett återbesök i framtiden genom att bevisa att de vet vad som fungerar när allt sitter som det ska.

Mike’s Food Truck has been serving burgers around Örebro and Kumla since 2015. We reviewed them back in 2016, but now they have changed owners and it was time to try them again. During this visit, the truck was located at Stortorget in central Örebro. Their menu contained a handful of different burgers, and we ordered a Classic Cheese with cheddar, pickled onions, pickled cucumber, ketchup and mustard, and a Bacon & Cheese with cheddar, bacon, red onions, tomato, dijon mayo and a bbq sauce. The burgers cost 90 and 100 SEK (8.50/9.50 USD)each, and we added another 113-gram beef patty for 30 SEK (3 USD) on both of them.

Our burgers looked really inviting when they arrived. Their homemade bun was golden brown and glossy, and had a lovely crispy fried interior. The patties had a generous crust, plenty of seasoning and were very juicy. Bacon & Cheese is their best seller, and it was also our clear favourite of the two burgers we tried. The bacon was crispy with a slight smokiness and just the right amount of saltiness, and the slightly salty dijon mayonnaise and sweet bbq sauce tied the flavours together, together with a nice texture variation from the vegetables. The Classic Cheese was unfortunately much more fragmented in flavour, and had far too much acidity in several of the ingredients. The thick layer of thinly sliced pickled onions took over, and the pickling liquid soaked the burger and made it soggy. The pickles were also thinly sliced, and didn’t add any flavour but just made everything wetter. It also contained too much mustard, which contributed to the overall acidity.

Mike’s Food Truck is a burger veteran, so we were a little surprised to get such mixed impressions. Our Classic Cheese seemed unfocused and a bit sloppy, but the Bacon & Cheese added flavour and made us want to return in the future by proving that they know what works when everything is just right.

Recension från 21 december 2016

Recension skriven av Jens Haugen (Gästskribent)

Mike’s Food Truck är ett gatukök på fyra hjul som för det mesta befinner sig på Stortorget och Järntorget i Örebro, men som även finns på plats vid marknader och evenemang runtom i staden. Utvändigt ger köket ett seriöst intryck i retro-anda och på menyn skyltar de stolt med sitt närproducerade kött och hembakade bröd.

Menyn består av åtta burgare, där variation och även vegetariska val finns att hämta. Priserna ligger mellan 70 och 90 kronor för bara burgaren, vilket känns helt okej jämfört med snarlika burgare i staden.

Vi valde deras ”Cheese NO 1”, bestående av en köttpuck på 113 gram högrev och bringa, två lager cheddarost, dijonmajonnäs, söt barbecuesås, tomat och rödlök i deras egenbakade bröd.

Burgaren gav ett enkelt intryck, men låg bra i handen. Köttpucken var välkryddad men kunde ha varit lite mer saftig och ha en bättre stekyta. Även brödet, som är något av det bästa vi har smakat i Örebros trakter, kunde ha fått lite mer tid på stekbordet. Kombinationen av dijonmajonnäs ihop med den söta barbecuesåsen fungerade däremot bättre än förväntat med de övriga ingredienserna.

Mike’s Food Truck gör utan tvekan en av Örebros bästa burgare, och detta från en foodtruck. Vår önskan för framtiden är att det fokuseras mer på köttets tillagning, då detta känns som en nödvändig och inte allt för svår åtgärd.

Mike’s Food Truck is one of the few food trucks Örebro, serving burgers from locally sourced chuck and brisket in their own homemade bread. The burgers are cheap, priced between 70 and 90 SEK, and can easily compete with most hamburger joints in Örebro. Their strength lies mostly in their varied menu and their excellent bread, even though it could could have been a bit more toasted. The patty is tasty, but not juicy enough to be great. And we lacked a proper crust – something that we hope they’ll work on in future.

🍔 Review № 1381

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @black_bear_burger ★★★★☆

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
