fuck you op you always post delicious fucking food and I always view them at ungodly hours when there isn't any chance of getting it
 
In-n-Out > All.

Nice to see Father's Office get recognition, though, even though it's total crap to rank every burger in the god damn USA. Living within walking distance of the Santa Monica one can't be good for my arteries.

Also, best burger in L.A. is Golden State on Fairfax. Believe.

I always see Isabella's smug face and cry a little on the inside as I look at all of the cheeseburgers that I cannot have.

No mention of little big burger huh? Those little things are fucking tasty.

If you are ever in Victoria bc, get the Brass Burger at le Brasserie l'ecole. My favorite burger bar none.

Ugh I feel like there are so many on the top ranking ones that are in New York. I need them closer! LA is better. I'll be moving soon though and San Francisco ones will be within reach. Perhaps a weekend trip! I think so!

Edit: I'm drooling so much over these burgers.

Was in NYC in May and went to Shake Shack to order a Cheese Burger. Imagine my disappointment getting back to my hotel when I found out I had received the veggie Mushroom burger instead. It was too much effort to go back to them to rectify the error.

Anyhow, the Mushroom was still very tasty. Still a meat patty would have been so much better.
 
There is pretty much no way that I won't be going out to get a hamburger from somewhere tomorrow now. Glad to see Five Guys on the chain burger list. I really do wish I could try In-N-Out Burger sometime, but living on the east coast makes that a little hard.

One burger joint I wonder if they left off because it scored too low or because they didn't know about it or because it's technically not an all-beef burger: Slater's. 3 locations in SoCal, and famous for their "50-50" burger: it's 50% ground beef and 50% ground bacon.

Vied for a tag related to cocks, so here it is.
Fuck me why did I click on this thread before I've even had breakfast? Shit me I want a burger now.

The ones with brioche style buns always hit it for me, went to a couple of places in London during easter that were just incredible - brioche buns, meat so soft you don't even need teeth to chew.

Golden State is definitely very good and deserves to be on this list, but I'd still give the edge to FO. The combination of flavors is just great.
 
For anyone in Los Angeles there is a place in Redondo Beach nestled in with a Liquor Store called "The Standing Room." They offer some extremely good gourmet burgers, some of the best burgers I have ever had. It's a tiny kitchen inside with the Liquor store, and there is no seating, hence the name, so you gotta go outside and eat or take out.

If you are ever in the South Bay craving a burger, check it out.

I heavily endorse this. Probably the best burger I've had in the area.

Varsity?




Seriously?

That shit kind of makes me want to go even though i've never liked a single thing from the varsity in my 20+ years of living here.
 
All those Chicago burgers listed are good, but I'm shocked they didn't list "paradise pup" around the suburbs. Those burgers are fucking perfection

Glad to see Ray's Hell Burger rank so high. When out of towners say any other place in the D.C. area has the best burgers, it's hard to fight back the laughter.

I'm going to Atlanta tomorrow because of this thread to try out the Vortex place. Then a double chili cheeseburger at the Varsity. 126 miles one way. Taking my bottle of heartburn medicine as well.

Any burger that has mayo or some kind of gross fuckin orange sauce or any kind of sauce that's some kind of mayo variant needs to be removed from the list.

This whole thing was made by some hipster asshole who picked a bunch of trendy "ideas" that sound better than they taste. I call bullshit on the lot of it.

What the hell do I know? Motherfuckers, I'm from Wisconsin. I know cheese and I know burgers. Seymour, WI is the home of the hamburger. Never trust a list like this that was written by somebody from outside of Wisconsin. Shits like asking me to make a top 40 wines list.

It'd be boring to most 40 bog standard burgs. I kinda agree in that I'd probably never order a burg like you described, but I enjoyed looking through list at all the different burgs.

Steak & Shake gettin the credit it deserves. Their burgers are actually really good. Except their garlic burger. Don't get their garlic burger unless you want more butter than burger.
 
Fuck I hate Gaf food threads, always makes me crave food.......Damnit now I'll have to get a shitty burger that doesn't compare to these and feel bad :/

Sir, I'm not a brilliant man, nor would I ever be foolish enough to claim as much. But God dammit, I know my hamburgers! So hell motherfuckin YEAH I'm an expert! Its too bad that I'm not an expert on nuclear physics or something useful, but fate has seen fit to make me an expert on hamburgers.
 
I've had the the top 4 in the fast food chain, I still prefer In and Out over Shake Shack but that's because I like animal style burgers. Surprised Culvers wasn't on the list but oh well.
