Summary
Step into Corinth, Mississippi’s culinary time machine—the legendary slugburger, born in 1917 when John Weeks sold it for a nickel (aka a “slug”). Made lean with flour and potato flakes, this humble burger became a local icon. This month, the city celebrates with its annual Slugburger Festival, but you can still grab one year-round at spots like the Slugburger Cafe or Borroum’s Drug Store—where tradition’s still on the menu.
