Mind-Blowing Burgers in Portland and Beyond

"For creations topped with strawberry jam, Beechers aged cheddar, and more, PDX Sliders has been a Sellwood standby. What began as a cart has now become two brick-and-mortar locations, with a second spot on Division. The restaurant’s Hawthorne burger — slathered in strawberry jam, goat cheese, and bacon — is a distinctive draw here, but purists may prefer the Sellwood, the restaurant’s take on a bacon-cheddar cheeseburger with caramelized onions. Even the small-sized “sliders” here are a full meal, though every burger can be leveled up to a full-sized sandwich. The possibilities don't end there, however, as burgers can be served in lettuce wraps, or just have their innards piled atop fries or salads." - Ron Scott, Janey Wong
