When hunger (and thirst) strikes, those that know me well know that I’m a burger and a beer kind of gal. Nothing can hit the spot quite like a well-seasoned patty or two and a pint of craft beer. One of my favorite places to satisfy both cravings is Muddy Banks Brewing in Sullivan.
With a name like Muddy Banks, it should be no surprise that the interior vibe focuses on the outdoor recreation in the area, with Meramac State Park just a couple miles away, and the food menu boasts burgers, salads, sandwiches, and appetizers.

Drinks include house brewed beers, with around eight on tap at any given time, cocktails and wine, plus items like nitro lemonade, coffee, and a variety of soft drinks.
On a recent visit, I ordered the Bacon Jam burger, which is topped with American cheese, bacon, bacon jam, lettuce, onion, and the house made burger sauce. It’s a big and wonderfully messy burger that will have you licking your fingers and savoring every single bite.

My husband ordered the wings, which are one of his favorite menu items. A true wing connoisseur, he can’t get enough of the way they’re made at Muddy Banks: smoked, then flash fried and tossed in a generous amount of sauce. There are comforting sides like mac and cheese, potato salad, and baked beans to choose from, but we both love the crispy, yummy fries.
