home made

On the griddle, with bacon and onions fried first, so the burgers can cook in the bacon onion grease.

A "dive" that I go to, Ringside Cafe - St Petersburg, Fla. Their Black-n-Blue is the bestest ever.

Your not going to get any chain restaurants to compete with either homemade or dive joints.

Jakers of Idaho Falls. If you get a chance to come up try one! Big, thick, ground sirloin, hand patted! Portions are big as always. Cooked any way you want!

In-n-Out for a chain - fresh, hot, well made.

I'd pick Steve's Burgers for the best local - their King Kong bacon burger is 1/2 pound of beef and about six strips of bacon on a 6" diameter bun covered in your choice of fried vegetables creating a two pound monster of a meal. Conveniently located across the street from Kaiser as you're likely to have a heart attack eating that much fat in one sitting.

I probably shouldn't be giving this information out but...Alamo Springs Cafe. It's in the middle of nowhere near a bat cave about 10 miles from Fredericksberg, Texas. It's a dump. I mean an absolute hole. The atmosphere and food is off the charts. If you want to find it get a GPS.

The bat cave near Mason? Details please Sir as I'm about to live in that vicinity and love small local places.

I've been going to that area my whole life, I remember going to a bat cave once when I was 10 or so, our place is actually in London.

It used to be Jungle Jim's in Orlando, but they went out of business there a few years ago.

Apparently they still have a location in Virginia. though.

Around 300 miles and 6 or more hours depending on traffic and when you leave Dallas.

I'll definitely be checking this place out after we move.

Ann's Snack Bar in Atlanta, home of the "Ghetto Burger". Named "Best Burger in America" by the Wall Street Journal.

She's trying to sell it though.

I really enjoyed the cheeseburgers and bacon cheeseburgers at the Wessington Springs SD American Legion Hall when I was out there last October. Steaks weren't too bad either.

Miss anne's is great by my favorite was Carey's Place on Hwy 41 in Marietta Ga.

His little bar / grill was just north of Dobbins A.F.B. and the place had awesome 1/2 lb. burgers.

Sadly the place is long since gone but it will never be forgotten.

Scullys Butter Burger, outside of Milwaukee. 2nd place is Culvers, a Wisconsin-based chain. They have a couple in the Phoenix area. Wife and I only go once every other month, they are so high-calorie.
