IYO, who has best fast-food burger?

[forgop]

Ok, just for chezuki and VUPDblue, the next time I have a burger or steak, it'll be medium rare.

I'm always up for trying new things.

I'm proud of you for wanting a steak bursting with flavor over a dry piece of leather.

Wendy's is my favorite fast food.

I like Big Boy more but I consider Wendy's being more fast food type than Big Boy.

Does the elk taste that much better than regular beef?

Yes. It's got a meatier taste and is richer than the regular beef, (which is also quite good, too).

 

[Sybaris]

If a steak can be made "better" with A1, it isn't a good steak to begin with. A good steak can only be degraded by the addition of A1.
Believing otherwise is a good indicator that someone should save some money and stick to pot-pies and fish sticks.

Right
Putting anything on a good steak is like mixing a single malt whisky with coke

Mr dans needs a drive through...

Id go frisches too

 

[Gluemanz28]

You are all wrong

Everybody knows that the best burger is from the 7 Eleven

I didn't read all 11 pages, but I think the best basic, no frills cheeseburger is from McDonald's. I don't think I have ever had a bad cheeseburger from McD's. Get anything other then a plain cheeseburger and there is a risk it might be "meh", but for just a plain cheeseburger I prefer McDonald's.

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

McDonald's doesn't use that much pink slime in their burgers...

 

[K_W]

No Big Boys within daily driving distance of me and I find Steak & Shake too greasy and expensive...

I have to go Wendy's.

Followed by Dairy Queen
Then Burger King
Then Steak & Shake
and way at the bottom in last place is McDonald's (except the Big Mac, that's awesome.)

McDonald's doesn't use that much pink slime in their burgers...

Pink slime is delicious.

Hands down its In-n-Out Burger, ordered animal style.

My favorite is Hardees 6 dollar burger with lettuce, pickle, mustard (no ketchup or mayo) and a handful of jalapeños; substituting onion rings for fries.

mmmmmmm.

My honest opinion recently has become that most people have honestly lost touch with what seriously good product tastes like, and have become conditioned to sodium saturated meats that A) aren't fresh B) overcooked C) are poor quality meats. Unfortunately, the population has become accustomed to these "fast food" burgers, and when they taste a quality burger and don't have a sting on their tongue from the excess sodium and preservatives, they question quality. haha

 

[WestSider]

A bunch of people are saying Steak & Shake, i have a hard time calling them fast food.. I think the quality is the same as fast food but not the fast part.

I would probably go with Wendy's or Rally's for the best burgers of a true fast food chain.

 

[snowdrifter]

I've not tried burgers from some of the places people have mentioned, but from my personal experience:

#1. Culvers
#2. Wendys
#3. Anything else.

 

[Whosyer]

Steak and Shake, then Culvers, then DQ.

I seriously just felt pity for the two of you.

Some people will never know what they are missing.

As it has been said multiple times already; a GOOD steak should only require light seasoning (i brush oil and then salt/pepper both sides) and grilled between rare-medium depending on your preference...anything else is lipstick on a pig

I agree with Chez. Mid-rare is the way to go for a good steak and a good burger.

Agreed on the steak, except I go medium for burgers

Ok, just for chezuki and VUPDblue, the next time I have a burger or steak, it'll be medium rare.

I'm always up for trying new things.

Atta boy You will never go back...might i suggest you work your way down though? Going from well done directly to med. rare may be a bit of a shock to your palate

Are we just talking about Indiana? I'm quite fond of Back Yard Burgers. But I don't think they're in Indiana.

 

[hoosierdaddy1976]

1. schoops (the st. john one has a drive-thru, making it eligible)
2. culver

 

[Win52C]

Hard to beat a double Whopper with no pickle or tomato. Mmmmmmm
