If they bring the food to you, I don't think it counts as fast food ... walk up or drive up to order is a defining characteristic.

If we're allowed to name any darn place that makes burgers, I have to go with the Wet Willy from Reno's in Exton, Penna.

That is a burger, let me tell you ...

Thanks for that video Lumberjim. It makes me want to pack up the car and head to Arizona. My wife wants us to visit her aunt in New Mexico. You can bet I'd be stopping by this place on the way and if it isn't on the way...I'll make it on the way.

Wolf, I think the bypass burgers at the Heart Attack Grill are probably more than just a burger. The nurses, all you can eat french fries, and the fact that they don't carry any diet sodas makes this place tops in my book without having ever even tried it.

Actually, I just wanted to say Wet Willy.

ah...i just got that link in an email, and this was the first thread that looked like a good home for the link. Mostly, I like the theme of the place. the burgers look nasty.

I seriously doubt I could eat a double, let alone a quadruple.

For purely mainstream fast food outlets, I think Hardees currently has the best readily available burger.

Hardees = Carl's Jr. Same company, just different names in different parts of the country.

It turns out Oklahoma and Colorado have both Hardees and Carl's...

I'd have to go with Wendy's, personally follwed by Burger King.

And yet.....sometimes there is an itch that only a McDonalds Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese, no onions can scratch.

even though you know full well that it will be oozing from your pores within 45 minutes.

I need a salad just thinking about it.

I was thinking it looks a lot like an In-N-Out burger.

Fuddrucker's, however, is by no means a good hamburger place. To be a good place, your hamburgers have to actually taste like something. Fuddrucker's is all hype, no flavor. The poor SOB's have gotten it exactly backwards.

Burger King kicks their butt.

And In'N'Out very much rules the retroburger roost in SoCal. Their hamburgers do taste like something.

... thanks wolf! Somehow I missed the "fast food" in the title.
