In my country (Switzerland) we have only McDonald's and Burger King... I hate them.
What is "local drive-in burger joints"?

>>7329457
Here in the UK we have the usual American franchise bullshit like McDonald's KFC burger king or we have local burger vans which serve nasty cheap horse burgers mostly aimed at fat fuckwits who think that shit tastes good, that shit only ever tastes good at 3 in the morning after drinking too much in club.
Best burgers are either homemade or in decent restaurant.

In-n-out for the price/quality, easily.

I like foster's freeze, the calories are insane, but it's got some retro charm to it that's unbeatable.

Burger alone
>Shake Shack

Value of the burger
>In n Out or Cookout

I love Shake Shack, but it's just too expensive to eat their regularly. So depending what part of the country I'm in, In n Out or Cookout are my favorites.

>cookout

nah dude. I don't care how cheap it is or how late it's open; that shit tastes dry and bland. Only good things from cookout are the barbecue sandwiches and the shakes.

The Habit, specifically Santa Barbara style

shake shack isn't fast food if the line is on average 1hr+ to get in during peak hours

also they use a 70:30 blend, theres the secret. have fun

Same here, but you can't deny that burger king is way ahead of mcd.

motherfucking angry whopper, man

I'm afraid you've been to the wrong Cookouts. I've been to many in 3 different states and never had that problem.

Been to many Shake Shacks during lunch time and haven't waited more than 15 minutes.

Shake Shack's fries are god tier. Burgers are ok. Fries + burger usually costs around $10, which is pushing it for me especially considering how small the burgers are.

>you've been to the wrong Cookouts

I've only been to one that was near my school in Virginia. I drove my drunk friends there at 1am on dozens of occasions, but I just thought their burgers tasted like a meat-flavored sponge with pepper every time and my friends and I stopped getting them and went for the bbq or chicken instead every time.

That's a shame anon. I do agree their BBQ is great, but their burgers are where they shine. I've been to ones in SC, NC and GA, and they were all great.

Small family-owned locations, not corporate burger giants that taste awful. Think your local friendly pizza place, but for burgers instead. Some of them are drive-ins where you get served while seated in a car if you don't want outdoor bench seating..

SS is so fucking awesome

>>7329472
this desu.

nothing like a local burger joint.

>>7329457

Best I've ever had was from some shitskin running a food cart at a fair. He grilled all the burgers in the morning, then let them sit in their own grease in one of those huge metal tins hot dog carts use to keep the dogs in hot water. Disgusting as fuck in theory, but god damn that was some juicy burgers.

Best big burger chain is Wendy's.

Five Guys is good but expensive.

Local place called David's Burgers is similar to Five Guys but just edges it out, IMO. It's my go-to now

I hated shake shack at first. Then I realized I'm not poor and can afford $12 burger and cheese fries. Made the mistake of ordering a shake the first time I went, how do you have "shake" in your restaurant name but fail to make a good shake?

Stick with the double shack burger and cheese fries and it'll be worth the money.

Fellow Arkansas bro
