Health Camp Super Burger, Waco, Texas Alamo Basement Aggie Ring and I had “Crossed the Brazos at Waco” as the old Country song goes. I was looking for some lunch on my way home from Kansas City. It was 1:20 p.m. so the BBQ place I tried was out of brisket (as it should be anywhere if the brisket is good). I looked across the street and noticed an old burger “joint” named, “Health Camp.” Perhaps they should have named it, “Fat Camp!” The double-meat cheese burger with their special sauce was delicious.
