The UNL Dairy Store’s P.O. Pears burger cookout scheduled for Aug. 3 has been tentatively postponed to Aug. 10.
The cookout will resume on that date as former P.O. Pears staff will cook up the same burgers from the now-defunct but popular Lincoln establishment on the green space outside the Food Processing Center. The event will also feature live music.
Menu choices include half-pound burgers with a variety of Dairy Store cheese for $6.99, which includes a trip through the buffet line serving potato chips, baked beans, macaroni salad, pickle spears and burger condiments.
Signature burgers are $7.49 and include: the bacon burger, with cheese; the popular Jiffy burger, complete with peanut butter and bacon; the Rhythm and Blues burger, topped with bacon and bleu cheese; or the 25th Anniversary Burger, featuring cream cheese between two slices of Dairy Store cheese.
Cheese choices include American, Cheddar, Husker, Husker with Dill, Husker with Jalapeno, Husker with Black Pepper and Chives and Husker N-Gold.
