3. In 'N' Out Burger in Southern California

Unfortunately I've been 3,000 miles away from the closest In 'N' Out for too long :(

[Chef]

10. N' and Out

Yea, they are great. Run Burger Run isn't bad for fast food.

[fishwax]

50. God, I love in n out burger

that's good stuff. They have them in Phoenix, where my in-laws live.

[noshenanigans]

62. Oh GOD Yes.

In n' Out, #1 with grilled onions. They pay their workers good and offer great benefits.. awesome fast food and I don't lose my soul. Sweet! Plus, they still wear the funny paper hats and the aprons with the fricking huge safety pins.

4. Tookie's in Seabrook, TX. Home of the Squealer.

The Squealer is made with bacon ground in the with the beef. It's quite sinful.

[kick-ass-bob]

17. Oh, wow!

THat sounds REALLY good!
:9

[XNASA]

20. Bacon makes everything better.

Bacon and bleu cheese.

[Aristus]

5. Local: Mike's Little Holland hamburger stand in Fircrest.

Stand in the classic sense: it's just a little shack. You stand outside, place your order at the window. Ten minutes later, a delicious burger, heavenly fries and a butterscotch milkshake to die for! :9

National Chain: Red Robin. Although I miss their waffle-cut fries. :(

[Magrittes Pipe]

7. It used to be the Century Club in Dayton.

Until some asshats bought and ruined it. :grr:

[GOPisEvil]

32. Hut's is good, but so is Dirty Martin's.

[GOPisEvil]

39. Dirty's? Been around for decades.

Right on "The Curve" on Guadalupe.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

40. Right!.......................

I think I know where you're talking about now. If your heading south on the Drag, its on the right? Never heard it referred to by its "full" name, I've always heard it just "Dirty's".

[MadHound]

48. You've never had a burger until you've been to Booche's

The Booche burger has been a Columbia Mo staple for 120 years, and it the best burger anywhere. While Booche's is a bar/pool hall, they have perfected the art of making a burger. If you're ever in the Mid Missouri area, go to the corner of Cherry and Ninth St, and look south for the Booche's sign. Treat yourself, have a beer and a Boocheburger.

[WritersBlock]

64. Goldies in Tulsa?

Are they still as good as they used to be? It's been almost 30 years, and I still remember the taste of a Goldie's hamburger. Never had one as good since, even though I'd give my eye teeth for a Sonic cheeseburger right now, too. Or how about Tastee-Freeze?

These threads make me SO hungry!

[Dees]
