Curd & Q Burger at Chase Field not too messy, receives passing grade

May 30, 2018, 12:44 PM

Arizona Sports’ very own Derek Montilla broke his very own cardinal rule of eating ball park food before he even took a bite of Burger Burger’s Curd & Q Burger at Chase Field: never order something messy.

A one-third pound burger patty layered on top of a bed of cole slaw, smothered in barbeque pork and cheese curds on top, the Curd & Q Burger sounds like quite the mouthful.

Nonetheless, Montilla braved the challenge with holiday optimism this Memorial Day, and was rewarded with a pleasant surprise.

“Outside of the cheese curds, I would say that this burger is absolutely amazing,” Montilla said. “It’s actually less messy than I thought it would be. This is napkin-free Derek right now. I am free and wild and eating and loving every minute of it!”

We hear you, Derek. Cheese curds are really more of a side dish rather than a topping anyway.

This was the third installment of D-backs Snacks this season. Montilla also ate a $28 hot dog on Cinco de Mayo and tacos from a Tai’s Tacos, a food truck inspired by D-backs pitcher Taijuan Walker.
