What's your favorite fast food burger?

[b5blue]

  So what is your favorite fast food burger? We just got a Culvers "Butter Burger" here, not too bad but costly and as made to order a bit slow. Steak and Shake is my winner around here with the best bang for your 4 bucks.
  As I pull back from my old style of eating, a fast food meal has become more of a treat then a mainstay so I've gotten more picky! We even have the only Biff Burger left on the planet here not to far from me, they cater to the car and bike crowd and are packed on most weekends.

x3.  It's the only great thing left in California.

Plus the billionaire owner lady is a real drag racer, and a Mopar girl.  I'm happy to give her my money.

[Kern Dog]

There is a burger joint in Van Nuys CA called "Original Tommy's"
They make a great burger... get a batch of chili on the side.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

Furburger, what else?   

[69Charger_440]

Whataburger, of course.  Burger King is all right, along with Carl's Jr/Hardees.  Don't really like Wendy's.  Tried In-N-Out to see what all the fuss was about......turned out to be a glorified McDonald's.   

[chargerbr549]

Used  to be the Baconater from Wendys then the 1/3 angus burger came out at McDonalds and that was my favorite until they quit making it, I think the five guys burger is pretty righteous.

yep...Tommy's is amazeballs. My left arm is tingling just thinking about it. 

But they are actually quite a few locations all over SoCal (and Vegas, I think)

[polywideblock]

none of the above , still go to and old fashioned "take away " shop ( Greek diner /milkbar). been there for three generations, great food and the burger buns are real bread not brown cotton candy

I used to love the Five Guys burgers until they opened Mooyah. They are, by far, better than 5 guys or smashburger. I wouldn't even mention mass produced products. I went to the mcnugget factory once, I will never eat at mcdonalds.

Love me some in N out!   Keep moving north!  Now I can get it in Medford, from Seattle.

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Over here in NYC we have Shake Shack....best burgers in town IMHO!

[Brock Lee]

I am not crazy about 5 guys. It is like making a burger at home.

Culvers is pretty good. I like their sourdough burger. My current favorite is in a restaurant at the casino I work in called "Hops House 99". They have this burger called "The Beer Billy BBQ Burger" with gouda cheese, BBQ sauce and bacon that makes my mouth water just thinking about....

[BrianShaughnessy]

5 Guys and Hardees...   I like trying whatever seasonal burger Hardees puts out.    The tex-mex was really good and so is the moonshine burger they have out now.    Even the deal with the hot dog and the chips on it was a delicious mess

[myk]

It WAS Wendy's, specifically the 1/2# burger, but I stopped eating fast food completely about three months ago.  Out of all the junk food I ate I only miss the burgers the most...

[Derwud]

For a fresh burger at a great price.. In-N-Out, but, you have to come to Pasadena, last of the Original In-N-Outs, a very Seasoned grille..

Plus, they have cool bumper stickers.

First is the new sticker on the Dart. Second is the one I put on my Charger in 81 or 82. They were printed with In-N-Out Burger, Quality you can taste. I changed mine to In-N-Out Urge, Quality you can Feel. (Yes, it looked a lot better back then)

[ACUDANUT]

The IN and Out Urge (modified bumper sticker) never helped me get laid.

Hurt more than helped, but hey, I was one of the cool guys.

White Grill.  Been around since the 30's and still going strong.  No frozen burgers here.

Oscar's

[Ponch ®]

This needs to be narrowed down to only the "major" fast food chains (McDs, BK, Carls/Hardees, Wendys, Jack in The Box) that are all over the country so that we all have the same point of reference.

Otherwise all of us Cali guys are going to go w In N Out or Tommys, the midwest guys with Whattaburger,  and the North East guys w White Castle.

[poppa]

We don't have any in n out , jack in the box etc around here. Mickey D's , BK , Wendy's , Hardee's , Culvers are here.

[RCCDrew]

Whataburger patty melt!!

[68CoronetRT]

In-N-Out. Animal style, light lettuce hold the pickle, with a whole grilled onion.

A close second was the Jack in the Box "Hot Mess". OMG it was so good. They even made a music video!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgDTdiotDSc

See? Thats what I mean. Im assuming Jack is a nationwide thing, apparently its not. Meanwhile Ive never heard of Culvers.

We gotta stick to the big chains, otherwise its impossible to make a good comparison. Of course your local mom and pop has the best burger in the world as far as youre concerned, but knowing that does me no good if im 2500 miles away.

So, between McDs, BK, Carls/Hardees, and Wendys...whos got the best?

[poppa]

BK

In this case it's Wendy's hands down!!

[71charger_fan]

Elevation Burger or Hardee's.

[Ponch ®]

Im partial to Carls/Hardees burgers. Theyre charbroiled (albeit fake) and tend to be heftier than the others.

BK is decent, but although their patties are also charbroiled, the burgers overall tend to be too ketchuppy and mayo- heavy.

McDs is generally "heh". The Big Mac is decent, but its all bc of the secret sauce. Everything else just tastes like cheese. For sheer simplicity tho, its basic cheeseburger/hamburgers win. Theyre just too small. If they made them 2x the size they are now, sales would go through the roof.

Everyone has to try all these and rate them

I like a well trimmed fur burger.

[dyslexic teddybear]

Very, very different burger.

Yes, they are everywhere.......but are individually owned and operated.

Unless you are suggesting they are available from a chain-outlet?   






It's been my experience that chains vary a lot.....BK especially. Wendy's seems to be good the most consistently.....but not really any thing close to a good local place. Takes longer, but better.

[TXcharger70]

WHATABURGER! Hands down

[draftingmonkey]

For a fast food burger In n' Out here in SoCal and back home in Spokane, Dick's Hamburgers. If I want a good gourmet burger Waddells' Pub & Grill in Spokane is great.

[Kern Dog]

I couldn't bring myself to put Dick meat in my mouth even if I was in prison trying to survive.  

[poppa]

I guess this would be the biggest chain.....

Not to worry. They beat you up and you take it up the butt. lol

Hardee's/Carl's Jr. Same place different name depending on the region you are in. Best Mushroom & Swiss ever!

[Kern Dog]

I had an In-N-Out burger over the weekend. I liked it but cannot see why some people get all wiggly about it. The whole mess with the veggie-nerds wanting In-N-Out to offer a veggie burger pisses me off though. What the heck, man A company is in business to make money, not to sell products at a loss. If the market wanted veggie burgers, restaurants would offer them. 

[charger_fan_4ever]

Veggie burgers lol

there is the joke of the day.

Isn't beef just processed veggies if you think about it

was In-N-Out burger the one they referenced in the movie The Big Lebowski?   "those are some great burgers Walter"


Edit:  Thinking of movie quotes reminded me of Pulp Fiction and the Big Kahuna burger... "mmmhmmm that is a tasty burger"


Me?  Im a fan of good ol' Mcdonalds cheesburgers, had 5 guys 2 weeks ago, it was very greasy.

[68X426]

Yes it is.   Remember that Lebowski is 18 years ago.  In-N-Out had maybe 40 restaurants back then, just in SoCal, now probably 350 and spreading across the West.

Honestly i think BBB is more about the ambience/nostalgia...but their food is unremarkable at best.

No offense man! Just having some fun. I have never had sex with another man because I have no interest in that. Those that do really seem to like it though. I've also never been interested in beer, whiskey, smoking, drugs or Fords.  If you guys want that sort of thing, you won't see me stopping you.

reading that makes me pretty sure you've had sex with another man. 

[Kern Dog]

Yeah....I never developed much of a taste for alcohol. I like sweet drinks. I am aware that it appears UNmanly to like margaritas, daquiries, (spelling wrong!) wine coolers, etc.
I've never liked regular black coffee either.

Ok, i retract my previous statement about you having had sex with another man.

Im now convinced youve done it with multiple men.

I like five guys and In-N-Out, But Terry's Turf in Cincinnati is the best I've had.

[67440chrg]

Years ago I liked white castles by the sack full but now there not around here. Now I guess its wendys baconater.

[Bronzedodge]

For me it's gotta have good meat, not some greasy tasteless mystery patty.  Burger King seems to do the best job, Five Guys might be second.  No In n' Out here in the Mid Atlantic but I have a t-shirt of theirs with a 67 Dart and '65 Satellite on the back.   

[Old Moparz]

 

[green69rt]

I remember White Castle burgers when I was young (make that before I was born!!)  $1.00 a dozen!!  Today I go for Willies burgers here in Houston.  A real hunk of meat!

[68pplcharger]

Still have White Castles around Northern Kentucky, haven't had those in a few years. Might have to make a trip this weekend...

But its tough to get seated  there at a busy time.

Near me we have Flip Daddys , 5 Guys and Culvers - in the order for me

Haven't tried either Flip Daddys or culvers and need to for sure. Put that on the list for the weekend. I heard they are good... Yeah you have to go at the right time for Terry's Turf for sure. I used to work about ten minutes away from Terry's turf years ago which made it easy to pick the right time.
