We're nearing the end of summer, but that doesn't mean it's the end of burger season. I mean, burger season happens year-round. Do you know what's even better than a juicy burger? An equally juice cheeseburger, of course.

The staff at Yelp.com has put together a list of the best cheeseburgers in America, and one Michigan spot made the list. "Some say sweet dreams are made of cheeseburgers, and we couldn't agree more," Yelp.com states. "Thick and juicy, thin and crispy, slapped between a fluffy moist bun and topped with ooey gooey cheese, there’s nothing like the perfect cheeseburger to get your mouth watering and your tummy rumbling. We’ve compiled the top place from each state to get the dreamiest cheeseburgers. Slap on your stretchy pants and grab your ketchup, it's time to explore the top place in each state to grab a cheeseburger."

As for methodology, the list of the top cheeseburger in every state comes straight from Yelp data. "We identified businesses in the food and restaurants category on Yelp, with a large concentration of reviews mentioning 'cheeseburger,' then ranked those spots using a number of factors, including the total volume and ratings of reviews mentioning 'cheeseburger' between January 1, 2022 and July 15, 2022," they state. "This list looked at businesses in the United States. All businesses were marked open on Yelp as of July 27, 2022. When available, all businesses on this list have a passing health score as of July 27, 2022."

So, what's No. 1 in Michigan? Green Dot Stables in Detroit. The restaurant has more than 2,000 reviews on Yelp a current rating of 4.5 stars, so it's obviously a favorite. One local reviewer, Joan M., commented, "This place has been my go to place to eat since 2 years. They're always so nice and respectful. The food also comes in time. The food also is warm and tasty. I've never experienced anything bad from this restaurant. I definitely recommend it." Find the full list here.
