Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
There are scores if people here in San Antonio clamoring for In-n-Out to come to town... lots of California transplants here. From what they tell me, if San Antonio had this and Trader Joe's, it would be just about perfect.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
I've had In-n-Out burgers and they are very good for that genre of burger.
But there are tons of places that fix a good burger (the best being the Roy grill, I make a mean burger). And it would have to be the second-coming-of-Jesus burger for me to wait in a 3 mile line for one.

I prefer Fat Burger, the king of California burger joints.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
Unless it's been days since you ate, waiting in a 3 mile line for any food is wonky.
...cept a nice cool bottle of dole apple juice.

Didn't Donny tell Walter those were good burgers?

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
In complete honesty, I have not been able to stop chuckling about this post for 5+ mins.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
I had Five Guys in Ashland KY when it first opened. First time I had ever tried it and while it was really good, definitely pricey.
Chick Fil A does free sandwiches for a year and people camp out for that. |

Culver's is vastly underrated.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
I believe the best burger I ever had was at the Brazenhead over in Mason. Maybe it was the company, the brew and atmosphere, but dang it was good. Also had the Five Guys burger over there and failed to realize the hype.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
I'm sure In and Out is great, everyone I hear from raves. But that store will still be around next week. If the line's out of the parking lot, I can settle for a Wendy's and try again next time.
That's what I did when Five Guy's opened. Great burger, IMO, but I wasn't fighting that crowd. I "settled" for Chick-Fil-A up the street the first couple of weeks.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
In-n-Out is great for a fast food hamburger. I lived in Phoenix, AZ for a summer and probably ate there once a week. But any drive thru line out the parking lot just isn't worth it.

Re: 3 mile line for a hamburger?
Wafer-thin burgers are not my particular taste. Winstead's here in Kansas City does the same thing, and a certain percentage of the locals swear by it. To me, it looks and tastes like the kind of thing you scrape out of the pan after you cook a burger. But it's personal taste.
