We don't have any of these burger chains in my area, but we have others. I don't patronize the chains unless it's a drive-thru off the hiway when I need something quick. Even that's a rare exception. For that I prefer Burger King. I buy great ground beef from our local locker plant and make my own any way that suits my fancy that day. I usually grill them but earlier this week I made smash burgers. I'm with Farmall on what I call a bar burger. Always great, and if I'm paying what it cost for eating out I want a beer with it. Lou & Joe's is the closest thing to a honky tonk roadhouse we have and their burgers kill it every time, no matter which way I go. I tend to get their bleu cheese burger. That bar/restaurant has the best food across the board. Woodbine Inn ain't too shabby either. They have great seafood since across the road is J & T fresh seafood market. I'll take a crab cake sandwich over a hamburger any day
