And the Nominees Are: Vote for Best Burger in East County

As part of Patch's Readers' Choice 2012, we asked for your nominations for the Best Burger in La Mesa, Lemon Grove and Santee. Now's your chance to vote.

Bacon kinda gets all the attention, but the burger craze has been upon us for a while too.

Kobe burgers. Artisan buns. Homemade ketchup. Or hey, just a regular burger. Are you a burger classicist or a foodie who wants to see how far the definition of a burger can be stretched?

Whichever way you go, please vote for the best burger in town, whether it qualifies as the traditional patty on a bun or as a flavorful re-invention of the old favorite.
