    Okay, fine: how about Big Miners in Yakima? Or the Lariat in Naches? If you find yourself on the road to Spokane stop at the barbeque place in Ritzville (the guy who owns it used to do the fair in Yakima). Speaking of Yakima, if Mama D's is still there, you will not find finer bbq this side of Texas! Kellys Diner is pretty good here in Centralia, I get the gizzards and onion rings:D Big Jims Drive-In in The Dalles Oregon.

    The best burger though, by far, is a little dive in Connell...mmm, it makes the trip to my inlaws all worthwhile!

    Toni's, the Fresh Freeze in Eurkea, of course the So Cal kid in me craves a roam out to In N Out. Can't wait to have my first burger at the reborn Broiler!
    Someone posted Taco Lita in Arcadia, what a trip! Went there a lot on my lunch break in high school. It was Manny's El Loco down First Ave. that sometimes gave yer stomach trouble later on...

    Ever since the honeymoon we crave the Awful-Awful burger @ the Lil' Nugget in Reno. Not much of a parking lot but a hella cool place tucked away on Virginia Ave.

    In Checotah Oklahoma, on the north end of town is Bob's burgers. Always a dam good burger. Pretty greasy inside but always good. Oh, some blonde cutey named Carrie Underwood is from there but seeing she is a veggie person I doubt she has had one. She is missing out.

    The Texas Tavern in Roanoke, VA. Get the cheesy western and a bowl, works best if you drove a roadster!

    My favorite place is my bud Jason's house when he's grillin. In-and-Out or Fattburger are pretty good when I'm out west.

    Otherwise I have to live with Fuddrucker's or Chili's locally, not really much in the way of old-school burger joints in Huntsville.

    Used to be a real old place called the Crystal Beer Parlor in Savannah GA. Is it still around?

    I went to Worcester State, in the 80's, & Ralph's had a Rockabilly band that played every Wednesday night, The Preston Porter Band. They were great & I rarely missed a night. Oh, yeah, no offense but it's pronounced Wistah! :)

    I went to school in Brookings in the early 70s, 40 years later there still hasnt been a hamburger to equal Nicks. Used to stop there every Friday before going to the movies down the street. The best part is the way they are cooked, Nicks "secret method". The other neat thing is there wasnt a piece of flatware or a plate in the joint. If you couldnt eat it on waxed paper with your hands they didnt serve it.

    In OKC, it's Johnnies all the way. I actually plan my trips to lake texoma around stopping in for a #19.
    My dad tells me stories about the split-t back in the '60's. The stories revolve more around running a dragster up and down the streets than the burgers though:D.
    They did recently open up a 'five guys famous burgers' locally(south of KC) here and that IS ONE DAMN GOOD BURGER. I'm still full from last nights' burger.

    Porter Street BBQ in Porterville,Ca serves a burger called the Anita burger. Goes like this; 1/2 # patty, cheese, a heap of shaved tri- tip, on a sesame seed bun.. All of it is barbecued over a mix of walnut and oak wood. Just add bbq sauce and jalapenos, no need for fries.

    Shady Glen in Manchester Connecticut has the best cheese burgers. They are called the Bernice Burger named after one of the original owners from 1948. You get 3 slices of cheese that are melt on the burger and chrispy outside the bun. OUTSTANDING. Also the make their own ice cream.
     
  18. When I lived in Michigan I got to this place from time to time.

    Two locations!!! Killer burgers with crispy cheese hanging out of the bun. Man haven't had one in years. Think I will make it something to do this weekend.

    I also like Guido's Drive In in Manchester, the girls on skates bringing the food to the car doesn't hurt either.

    Now if you are up in the Worcester MA area, Georges has some killer Hot Dogs.

    Man that "Hillbilly Hotdogs " place looks really sketchy and really awesome at the same time. I would love to check it out.
     
  22. Hodad's here in San Diego/Ocean Beach still my favorite but we used to go to a little joint in Fort Wayne, Indiana where I grew up called Powers Hamburgers...good and greasy and cheap and no doubt lethal...Hall's Drive-In in Fort Wayne was another hangout and I think it's still there by u.s. 30 and 3
