I love mushroom burgers. Adding sour cream to the mix sounds very appealing.

Is it called that because it gives you ghetto bootie?

Ive never really been a fan of burgers, but those little ones that Ruby Tuesday offers are pretty good.

IMHO, the best burger here in Albaturkey is from Blake's Lotaburger. You can actually see them making it right after you order it. Some places you don't know how long it'sbeen sitting back there.

Carl's is way too messy.

And we don't have teh In'n'Out Burger. Yet. We just got Popeye's last year, so maybe...

Nuttin better than Dyer's Burgers.

The burgers are deep-fried: meat, bun and all. Dyer's has been serving 'em up since 1912. The flavor secret is the grease. They've never thown the grease out since starting opening. They do strain and process the grease daily. When Dyer's Burgers opened their Beale Street store, the owners hired a police escort for their prized vat of grease, which made the five-mile journey in an armored car. It was an astute move -- the publicity surrounding the event was huge, and folks from all over town soon lined up, eager to purchase a bag full of doubles with cheese.

I love both of them! Graeter's Raspberry Chocolate Chip is fabulous but so are all the flavors. Skyline is a heaven of spicy, cinnamon-y "chili" over spaghetti with beans, onions and a mountain of cheese (served with oyster crackers coz you need some carbs with that) and puts me right into a coma!

Skyline chili - that ain't no chili. 'Course that's just my opinion. I like meaty chili with beans and spice. Different strokes for different folks.

Graeter's is nice, always busy, but I've been spoiled by Sheridan's Frozen Custard. Going "to get some tonight" for my birthday as a matter of fact! Whoohoo!

This burger was not fast food, but it was delicious. Scaleburger in Elbe. The whole restaurant would fit in our dining room.

Thumbs up

Rockne's Mad Maxx is a really good burger.
But right now my fav is the Grinder's Restaurant...
- BBQ Bacon Cheese Burger- splashed with BBQ sauce, bacon, and Monterey Jack and cheddar cheeses on our special kaiser bun served with lettuce, tomatoes & mayo.

(description is from their carryout menu and in place of a pic)

OK, now I'm hungry!!!

I've eaten there. AAMOF, I have pictures somewhere of the darlets posing on the stump out front. We would always stop there on the way to Paradise Lodge. Have you ever stayed there?
