I think they have the same fries grease from the 60’s and they put a little dollop on the bun. Double bacon cheeseburger and fries is about 6$ There is a place in Fayetteville TN where I grew up called Ken's Fast food that has pretty amazing burgers. I think the reason I love In and Out so much is because I was 25 years old before I ever had my first one and now it has been 10 years since I have had another. I would take I&O over Whataburger though any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerfinz 1,362 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Best burger I ever bought was at University Chevron in Columbus Mississippi. I used to love it when my sales route took me through there. The owner was an immigrant who was more patriotic than mostly natural born Americans. I was always so impressed by how greatful he was to have become a citizen of this country and to have his opportunity at a successful life for him and his family. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is amazing to me how many immigrants I know who seem to love this country more than many native born Americans, especially the ones from Socialist countries. Cubans, Venezuelans, Eastern block countries almost every one I have met from these countries loves the US but are worried that we are starting to go down the path of Socialism where the government tells you what to do. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are headed towards a socialist society very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddc 13,194 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 The best burger I’ve ever had was at Toddc’s place. Ground sirloin and chuck fried in a black cast iron skillet in bacon fat! Yum yum 😋 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yum yum 😋 One of the great revelations of my life was learning that cast iron or a flat top is way better for most high heat cooks than most open flame grills. Heck yes to a smash burger. Any Blackstone enthusiasts here? It's on my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't get hot enough to develop the crust like a good ol cast iron does. Don't get me wrong, I like my blackstone for a lot of different recipes but for the best burger you can't be a cast iron. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even start my filets on the stovetop and then broiler on high for 5 minutes with a dollop of butter in a cast iron and they are perfect every time.

I'm also a pan guy for steaks. That even sear/crust is so good and it's just such an easy way to do the job. Sometimes I have to open the windows to un-smoke the kitchen, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try the reverse sear method. Cook in the oven on a rack at low temp, then get a cast iron almost white hot and sear it. There are recipes you can look up but it is fantastic. Hard for me to eat a steak any other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
