Big Jud’s to open new Meridian burger restaurant

Big Jud’s, 1289 S. Protest Road, is heading west with its gut-busting burgers.

The popular burger joint near Boise State University plans to open a second Treasure Valley location at the corner of Overland and Eagle roads, 3030 E. Overland Road, in January.

Like in Boise, expect to find a lineup of big burgers served with hand-cut fries and thick ice-cream milkshakes.

Besides burgers, Big Jud’s also puts out chicken sandwiches, fish and chips and finger steaks served with fry sauce.

Big Jud’s is known for its one- and two-pound burger challenges, which give diners the opportunity to have their photo placed on a wall of fame if they can consume one of the huge burgers (with fries and a drink) within 30 minutes. Those who complete the two-pound burger challenge also win a free T-shirt.
