Shake shack

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

The kebab shop down the road makes burgers too and they're better than everything I've had from one of the large chains while still distinctly feeling like junk food.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Is it that they spice the patties or something else? What's the liklihood their burgers are mixed meat? Like maybe goat + beef?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Very low. Goat meat is expensive.

I don't remember the last time I had a fast food burger. And I would like to keep it that way. Thank you.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

You know you want to

BK Impossible with no mayo

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

If I have to pick a burger, then same! But if we're talking vegan fast food options than my first choice is always gonna be fresco style burritos at 🌮 🔔

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I miss the fiesta veggie burrito so much

Five Guys is the only one I would be okay with. McDonalds is probably the worse, followed by wendys being 2nd worst. BurgerKing is... um... its like good for like your first try, then subsequent times it taste worse and worse each time you got there.

I don't eat a lot of burgers so I probably don't know what a "good" burger taste like, I grew up in an Asian household so I don't exactly eat a lot of "western" food for the most of my life (like... relatively speaking, in comparison to the rest of the US).

West coast dude that has visited all over the US. I’ve had BK/McD’s, Whataburger, Jack in the box, In-N-Out, Carl’s Jr, Smashburger, Sonic, Shake Shack, White Castle, Five Guys, A&W, and maybe a couple more I’ve forgotten. Best for me, hands down:

Culver’s butter burger with cheese and everything on it.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Culver’s is the answer.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Double teen burger from A&W.

Has enough meat with the double patty, and has all the toppings like onion, pickle, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, etc.

In n out dbl dbl

Assuming the question means fast food chain

Second is dbl cheeseburger from McD, hate me if you need to

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

There's something about McDonald's paper thin patties, greasy buns, and rehydrated onions that really hits the spot

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I think there is a window of perfection for peak enjoyment. Your description is spot on. It’s purely a McD’s sensory experience.

None of them? I find it’s worth the extra $2 to go somewhere local or “fast casual”. Places like McDonalds , Wendy’s, and Burger King are overpriced garbage these days.

Nando's' double cheese and bacon burger with added pineapple and hot basting

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

It's a toss up between a Wendy's Baconator and the Jack-in-the-Box Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger.

Or a classic Double Double from In-n-Out if you can consider an hour+ long wait in line "fast" food.

Best I've cooked: Oklahoma onion burgers

Best I've bought: green chilli burger from Meat Liquor Covent Garden though sadly they don't seem to have that location any more and the green chilli burger is no longer on their menu!

Sweden has a hamburger chain named 'Mr York' and they are amazing!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Good Times is a smaller chain and my favorite

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

So this is weird, but where I grew up there was a local, non-chain restaurant with 2 locations called Good Times. It was a combination Chinese, American and pizza joint. They don't have the location one town south of my childhood town, but the one I went to most is still there.

I don't suppose the one you're talking about is the same place...? 🤔

Only one I can eat, impossible whopper. I wish they would go all in and use the superior black bean burger instead tho

When McDonald's gets an equivalent, they're going to make so much money off of me

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

When I was a kid my dad would take us to Halo Burger in the Flint, Michigan area once in a while. Haven't gone in decades, since I grew up and moved away from the state. Something about how the burger was seasoned, just delicious. Nowadays I usually stop by Culver's for a double deluxe, now that there's one not far from the house (did earlier today, actually).

My options are severely limited since I don’t eat meat, but The Habit makes a really nice veggie burger. They have one of the fake meat burger brands as well, but those honestly make me gag a little with how greasy they are.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I've had impossible burgers and they're surprisingly good but so damn expensive

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

The only fast food burgers I eat happen to be White Castle single cheeseburger.

small Cheval for regional chain & Culver’s for national.

Do they make horse burgers??

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Horse meat is good and as much controversial. Thankfully they just use dmf cows

Edit: dmf cows = dumb motherfucking cows

I only recently learned the answer is "no"! For years I was wondering why people were lining up around the block to eat horse.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Very misleading name. I've also written to Panda Express corporate about why I can't get a rack of panda ribs there too.

R.I.P. 2for$10 Bacon Deluxe deal.

A local joint which I will not name, but they're basically like shake shack. The food used to be way better than shake shack, but unfortunately now it's just on par with shake shack. (Still great though). The fries however are perfect.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Out of the big three, the whopper by far.

For smaller but still top 100 chains, locally would be A&W, non local would be In-n-Out
