Still Saucy After All These Years

Milo Carlton honed his burger craft as a mess cook in the U.S. Army and opened his first burger shop in 1946. He spent the first summer testing and perfecting the secret sauce still in service to this very day. Most folks say it is simply a coincidence – but still a verifiable fact – the CIA was founded that very same year. Just saying.

Milo’s Burger Shop, an unassuming cinder block afterthought wedged into the industrial heart of Birmingham’s northside, soon had a lot of folks asking, “What is the secret to his unique sauce?” The answer might surprise you. It was listening. See, Milo was not a real talkative fellow. He liked making burgers and making people smile.

Milo believed in the integrity of hard work, giving people a little something extra, and having the courage to follow what his customers said instead of what other businesses were doing.

So, every day, Milo would tinker with the sauce. “Too spicy,” some would say. “Too sweet,” another week. The shop was small. Milo could work the grill and serve the bar while sending boxes of burgers out the window to-go to the long, winding line of steel workers that wrapped the building. The shop’s most loyal fans began coming in earlier and earlier to grab a stool near the grill so they could weigh-in on the sauce’s evolution.
