Since Bre has been very busy with the regular operations of The Fat Okie, we’re going to do things a little differently. I’m Big K , Bre’s husband and I’m going to try taking over the Food Friday duties.
This week we got a little nostalgic and went to Big Ed’s hamburgers on NW 122nd at Pennsylvania in Oklahoma City. This is the sole remaining location. So to the food. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon at about 2:30, so it was not busy at all. Bre ordered a bacon cheeseburger combo and I got a Flamin Ed combo. Everything is cooked fresh, but didn’t take too long for our order to come out. My Flamin Ed burger is a beef patty with a hotlink, and pepper jack cheese. The burger was perfectly cooked, nicely seasoned, and juicy and flavorful. The hotlink and pepperjack add a nice spice and flavor. Bre said her burger was also delicious, and said the bacon was excellent. The fries were also very good. Both combos also came with a soft drink with one free refill.
Overall we both enjoyed our meals and will be returning. Starting in 1974, Big Ed’s was an Oklahoma City burger staple for many years, there were once as many as 42 locations. Ed Thomas, Big Ed, passed away in 2009. The remaining location is in the Camelot Shopping Center. I will give Big Ed’s five big strips of bacon.
Address: 12209 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Oklahoma City.
Hopefully a nice weekend is on tap because there is a lot to do. My favorite weather festival is going on in Norman, a fun car show at Lakeview Market as well as one in Bethany a few miles away, St Elijah’s food festival is always a good way to spend the day, plus lots of Veterans Day celebrations with more on Wednesday. Have fun and stay safe.

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I love trying not only new places, but different food cultures as well. I heard good things about Vene Burgers, so I decided to check them out.
I had never tried Venezuelan food before so this was going to be a great new experience. On this Saturday night, there weren’t many people out, so we were able to place our order quickly. They do have menus in English, so that helped immensely. The staff was helpful as well, giving us tips on different items. The order started with tequenos, these are queso rolled into an egg roll type wrapper, then deep fried. I loved them. Basically, a cheese egg roll, I could have had nothing but these and been happy. We both got a hamburguesa la sin hueso. This has chicken, bacon, ham, cheese, lettuce, tomato, crushed potato chips, and house sauce on a bun. Served with fries, these “burgers” were huge. I loved the way the meats came together to create something unique. The fries were great as well. For a drink, I got a traditional Chicha. This is a horchata style drink, it was very sweet, with a hint of cinnamon.
I really enjoyed my visit to Vene Burgers. The food was definitely different and I enjoyed trying the new flavors. I’ll give them 5 strips of bacon.
Address: 4401 W. Memorial Rd., Suite 106, Oklahoma City.
Even though it is OU-Texas weekend, there are still events going on around the state. Pumpkinville at the Myriad Gardens in Oklahoma City is fun, as is the Haunt the Zoo at the Oklahoma City Zoo. Several car shows, the Watonga cheese festival, along with haunted houses are also some fun things to do. Have fun and be careful.

A few weeks ago we were looking for something different to enjoy for lunch. I was on Mustang Road south of I-40, stopped at the light for Reno. I looked over and saw the sign for Just Baked Bakery and Deli. I have been wanting to try this place for a while, so I turned in to check them out.
For a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty quiet. The first thing you are hit with is the huge case with all of their fresh baked desserts. It was hard to concentrate on the actual menu with all of these delightful baked goods right in your face. Big K got a Bricktown sandwich with a side of mac & cheese while I went with The Okie along with a side of potato salad. We took a seat and it didn’t take long at all for us to get our food. The Bricktown was a cold sandwich with ham, salami, pepperoni, and provolone with lots of fresh veggies on a hoagie roll. Big K loved every bite. He even had positive things to say about the mac & cheese, it was nice and creamy with perfectly cooked pasta. I went with a warm sandwich, toasted sourdough with ham, cheddar, bacon, along with grilled onion, spinach, and honey mustard. I loved it. Perfectly toasted, all of the ingredients just coming together to make a great sandwich. I also loved the potato salad, it was fresh with a great taste.
We were both stuffed when done but still couldn’t leave without some of those treats coming home with us. After careful consideration, I got a slice of carrot cake while Big K got a slice of peanut butter silk pie. I will say that the sweet treats did make it home but not for long. That carrot cake was calling to me and I enjoyed every bite. The cake was so moist and that wonderful cream cheese buttercream was to die for. Big K liked his peanut butter silk pie, it was smooth.
Overall we had a great visit to Just Baked Bakery and Deli. I am ready to visit again. The have a pretty big menu for breakfast and lunch. They even have coffee and that dessert case really is huge. I’ll give them five strips of bacon.
So much to do this weekend and only 2 days to fit it all in. My 2 favorite events in the Oklahoma City metro are this weekend- Czech Festival in Yukon and the Greek Festival in NW OKC. Both are so much fun, I might try to hit both. The wine festival in Hennessey is also quite fun. Plenty of car shows again, as well as a bunch of food festivals and music festivals. Oktoberfest is also a big event this weekend, pick a town. With the beginning of October means spooky season, lots of haunted houses and pumpkin patches are opening this weekend. So try to get out and have fun this weekend.

I’m always looking for a good local-owned burger place. Yes, there are several in the Oklahoma City metro area but I’m up for trying more. I had heard about Just Burgers for a few years but their location on NE 23rd north of Midwest City was a long drive for me. So I was excited to hear about a new location on NW 23rd not too far from my home.
Started in 2023, Just Burgers is just what they say they are, just burgers. Nothing else on the menu except for fries to go along with the burgers. We stopped at the new location at 3409 NW 23rd Street on a quiet Saturday night. No problems ordering, just kept it simple- a double up burger with cheese combo. The double up burger is 2 beef patties with lettuce, pickle, tomato, and onion piled high as well as JB sauce, mustard, mayo, and cheese. The burger was great, meat had a good flavor and all of the veggies were crisp and fresh. I loved the fries, crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
Service was great, we even got free fresh baked cookies. I loved the environment and can’t wait to visit again soon. I’m giving them 5 strips of bacon, on a burger of course.
