Urban Skillet serves up gourmet halal burgers After winning an award for the best halal gour- met burger in California, Urban Skillet owner Omar Qureshi opened its rst Texas location in Cy-Fair. What’s special about it? With roots tracing back to Pakistan, Qureshi said he moved to the U.S. when he was 8 years old. Years later, after operating Urban Skillet with his family for over 10 years, he moved to the Houston area to expand the family business. Qureshi said the way halal meat is processed creates the distinct juicy †avor his burgers o‡er. During this process, meat is slaughtered humanely and processed with care and respect for the animal and consumer, Qureshi said. “I really want to [have] the best burger in Texas on the halal community side, so I just want every- body to try us and rate us,” Qureshi said.

Burgers at Urban Skillet contain a half-pound of meat.
