Little Reds

I had an awesome little cheeseburger smothered in red chili today at a potluck... They are just called "little reds".. the person that brought them didn't stay so i couldn't ask...

Has anyone had these?? Where can i find them?? the only info i got is that there is a local joint that makes them for take-out...

On a mission ;)

I say usually, because they sometimes arbitrarily close. I work nearby and frequently walk over there only to find them closed. But I will say, when they are open, they are really good and have super friendly staff.; ▶ Reply to This
