  • Downtown Jefferson is filled with small, locally owned businesses, and perhaps the smallest of them all can be found on the corner of Racine and Center streets. At just eight feet by eight feet, Wedl's Hamburger Stand is 64 square feet of hamburger heaven.

      Have you been back to get a burger lately? I remember in the 60s you would take Sunday drives with your family, such a simple pleasure. I also remember people washing cars in the creeks on Saturday's.

      I grew up in and around PdC from 1947 - 1957 - A Pete's burger was a must at least weekly during the summer. Have taken friends there, and my wife and her mom, on day trips, even though I now live in Milwaukee. It's only a 6 hour round trip for a burger from heaven! I have also had burgers from Wedl's several times when driving Hwy 18 to Madison and back ( I don't like freeways, too sterile, no scenery or small towns). I prefer Petes' Burgers hands down.
