So after the UT game, I finally got to eat at BurgerFi. It was good. So which chain restaurant/fast food do you think has the best burger? It has to be a chain, because I dont care about some mom and pop place in Missouri that uses fresh ground Wagyu sirloin. And nothing fancy like some sun-dried tomato infused with blue cheese burger... I am talking straight up burger, cheeseburger, or even bacon cheeseburger.

My top 3:
1) Shake Shack
2) 5 guys
3) BurgerFi

I would almost move BurgerFi ahead of 5 guys simply because I can get a beer.

First two places that popped in my head were mom n' pop places. I have disqualified myself from participation.

I have an affinity for five guys. Ate a delicious, delicious double cheese when I was quite inebriated in Savannah.

Gone to Red Robin twice, worst service I ever have had. Both times the burgers were poorly cooked. But the milkshake and onion rings were excellent.

In no particular order...

Five Guys
In n Out
Culver's

But my favorite burger ever is a 2 store restaurant in the DFW area Flip's Patio Grill and their carnivore burger is unbelievable.

1/2 lb burger topped with 1/2 lb of marinated sliced ribeye and topped with double cheese. So freaking good

One of my personal favorite greasy cheeseburgers comes from Bev's Better Burgers. There's one in Alachua and two in High Springs. Whenever we head out to O'Leno, we make it a point to hit Bev's. I came back to Gainesville from a funeral out in Bell and added about 20 minutes to my return home just to hit Bev's in Alachua. Their onion rings are fantastic.

I miss In-n-Out. I loved going to the one that was on East University where the road splits where The Tackle Box used to be.

But it was always great in the mid 90's to get a burger while seeing all the coeds, in their clubbing outfits on the way to the club.
