Best Burger in Texas

I'm craving a big ol cheeseburger right now. So, who sells the best one in Texas?

I say Lucy's Big Burger - Abilene.

I'll have to check out Lucy's next time I'm in Abilene. Never heard of it.

It's good stuff. Great homemade jalapeño ketchup as well

Right now, I am going to have to say the angry burger at the Grease Monkey in downtown Arlington.

Ronnies in Wichita Falls is good. So is Giant Burger in Rhome.
A flat top grill is a must.

My patio. I don't eat many burgers out, because I like to cook them at home. However, I got a Jumbo Jack with cheese on my way home from the hunt Thursday. It was as good as any store bought I've ever had.

Still working my way through every burger at every burger place in Texas.
When I'm done I'll let y'all know.

Rodeo goat in FW is good for those "specialty" burgers.
The one with chorizo is good.

As am I. So far, it's Lucys

Jack in the box??

RG's in Denton is dang good too

Carls jr char burger was pretty good

Holy redundant thread Batman!

I refuse to eat any burger over a quarter pound. It's just not right.

Black Meg's

These places open and close all the time. Might as well keep everyone up to date.

Denton Independent.

Lucys aint nothing special

Whataburger never closes.

I don't think you could realistically find THE best burger in the state, there's too many places making good ones. My favorites are baker's in McKinney, the branch gas station on lake Lavon, Braum's, and my own

Denton Independent is gross brah.

The best burger to YOU...come on man!

Bakers is old school.

I honestly have not eaten there in 15 years.

Was good back then.

Lucys was bad when it was in Tuscola, I dont imagine it got any better when it moved to Abilene. His ice cream is good though

We do this thread twice a month. Everybody knows the results. Whataburger is first, Bill's back porch burger is second.

I'm going with Tommy's.

Next time you're in the area, I'll buy lunch there. It's good sir.

If you're close to Denton, try RG's..

Heard ya the first time

Anyone eaten at Keller's lately? Dad used to take me as a youngster and I thought it was good.

Is it still open?

Man knows his food

May not be the best but it's worth stopping if your in or passing thru Whichita Falls.

940 area code, I always call ahead.

Where is Tommy's?

What-a-Burger, no contest.

Camp bowie across from uncle Julio's.

Best burger I have ever eaten was a place here in town. A guy made a hamburger stand out of a popup camper. It was awesome and cheap. One of those burgers that the grease runs down your arm while you eat it. Sadly he closed down after I joined the army. Double R in Waco is good. Cupp's Cafe on Speight St in Waco is supposed to have the best burger in town, I don't know from experience, but alot of people have told me.

Another good stop is the Star Cafe in the stockyards. Great burger.

I like Alamo Springs Cafe near Luckenbach.

I think when Fuddruckers is on they are hard to beat, unfortunately the quality is not 100% consistent.

I do love a Salt Grass Cheeseburger medium-rare.

No doubt coyote bluff in Amarillo

Water burger in Boerne.

This good. Cheese fries too

Heard that from many people but I have not made it there yet.

The best ones have the highest fat percentage.

Beck's Prime in Houston and Dallas and wherever else they may be.

It is a tie for me:

Big O's in Velera south of Coleman
Or
Hole In the Wall in Newcastle.

It all depends on the tastes of the person and the cook of the day. I like Whataburger, but one place to the next can be a big difference. I also like 3 local joints, but just because they were great today, doesn't mean they won't be just average tomorrow. The chains do have more consistency in the quality, but it can vary from place to place and really be a big difference in town to town.

Lucy's is good.
Los Cazadores in Albany and Ernies in Breckenridge.

Freedom Fried Hamburgers in Rhome
Herds in Jacksboro
Swanners in Gilmer
BJ's chain has some decent burgers.

Just to name a few.

They are good. Used to be on North Treadaway, but are now on South 27TH just west of Barrow ST.

Fresh ground beef seasoned well, grilled or flat-top fried.
Fresh lettuce, tomato, pickles and onion.
Fresh bun.

There are so many places with a great burger within 10 miles of home
I can't imagine driving much further on any recommendation.

And I LOVE a good burger.

Coyote Bluff is good. Just remember they only take cash and checks.
Dirty Martin's in Austin
Woody's in Mineral Wells

Was at RG's last night. I've tried a few of theirs but just a bacon cheese burger is good. They also have a bacon cheese burger with a fried egg that is pretty dang good too.

P Terry's

Hole in the Wall is the only place to eat for miles around, thus, it is great.

Also check Giant Burger in Rhome, and Tater Junction, just west a couple miles on 114.

Outlaw Burger in Justin is pretty tasty as well.

I'll have to try that, but we did just get a WB in the neighborhood.

Are you over by 114/287?

Rodeo Goat....dfw.com's 2015 winner of battle of the burgers award. Beat out Fred's.

http://www.rodeogoat.com/ftworth/

Can't stand Rodeo Goat. They are like Starbucks to me...take something simple and good and jack it up by making it as abnormal as it can be.

An Angry Dog burger is the best.

Will take Salt Grass hands down ...

That place in Newcastle the cigarette smoke rolls out the front door and the older lady try's to tear a Vape Pipe inside out the whole time while your eating...

Yep

Captain Obvious checked in.

Boots Burger in Rockwall

A new place in San Angelo called the "Twisted Root" is supposed to be really good. But hard to rate new place, what they start out with and end up doing 6 months or a year later are usually different.

the local ones to DFW are terrible

around rockwall its burger island in Rowlett

The one in Roanoke is pretty good...If they will just turn the Music Down so you can hear yourself

Most of the time you as the manager and they will lower it a decibel or two

If I'm in Deep Ellum I'll eat at Angry Dog, their burger is great and they cook it medium rare

I forgot about one....it may be the best I have had....just been awhile though....

Jucy's Burgers in Longview is mighty fine. I sure miss the one they had in Mesquite.

Oh yeah I forgot, Koppe Bridge Bar & grill in College Station is pretty good.

There burger is alright, but if you really like that burger, coyote bluff would blow your mind

I had a quarter pounder with cheese at McDonalds yesterday. Never again.

Yep. Went there every time my grandpa took me fishing. Sure loved their beans! Figures something that good wouldn't last in the Ghettosquite.

Bubba's Corner on hwy 429 s.

Wings over Kaufman

Bill's Burgers, Wings & Things on hwy 29 (2 blocks west of hwy 281) in Burnet makes some pretty dang good burgers ... fries & onion rings too.

CBs Hamburger Joint in Greenville is greatness!
They've been around since 1941.

Wenzel Lonestar Meat in Hamilton TX the bision bacon burger is the best non homemade burger I have ever tried.

The Bar in Midland has good burgers.

Storms Hamburgers in Lampasas, Burnet, or Hamilton. I recommend the Storm's Special with double cheese.

South of the Border Burger at Mickey's Bar and Grill located at Hampton's Landing Marina in Aransas Pass.

Hollys! Post Tx

Great burgers, if you order the special, make sure you're HUNGRY!!!

Great scratch fries too

GROSS

Central market buffalo burger is very hard to beat

I stopped by Giant Burger per your recommendation, I have nothing good to say about it. Will try Tater Junction next time

I remember the one in Mesquite. I loved that place!

Wife & I tried the Twisted Root in Deep Ellum, it was just okay.

Like Big Pig, we enjoy the Angry Dog although the last couple of times they seemed to be just good, not real good?

Like Mr. Oxner has previously stated, the best burger is cooked on my Weber over Mesquite wood

Al's in Arlington double meat and cheese with griddled onions is quite good.

I don't like it either but some folks do. Maybe Tater Junction will be better. Go into Boyd for a Freedom Fried Burger. You'll most likely like that.

Horny Toad in Cranfills Gap makes a darn good burger. Great joint to hang out in too.

Juicy's in Tyler and Longview is tough to beat.

I like burger barn in Baytown they have a few locations the Lucy burger is my favorite

I wouldnt feed that Giant Burger to a DOG, its a Truck Stop and disgusting

If you are ever in Bastrop go to the Roadhouse on Hwy21 across from the State Park entrance. We were there yesterday and tried the cream cheese jalapeño burger, it's good. On previous occasions we have had the Destruction Burger, it's very good. It's always busy but pretty quick.

X2 ^^^^^ Good food!

Don Antonio's in Olney Tx makes a pretty good one

Yes it's still open. Go see old snag blue tooth and grab a burger and a beer. Hell last time I was there watched 2 girls fight in the parking lot.. Slapping each other hair pulling hitting and screaming about her cheating on her the hole time! 😄

Mary's on Strawn!

Burger house in Comesneil

Where the heck is it? I looked all over Olney and nothing!

Right across the street from Stewarts grocery store

I am at a loss here. Why the disdain for giant burger. Albeit the design is your proverbial meat, cheese, lettuce tomato, and onion, I have liked it when I go. I always get take out, as eating in a gas station doesn't really appeal to me. I have been to many places on this list and Giant burger is close to top five. Ronnie's in WF is probably my favorite.

Thanks! I know where I am now.

Giant Burger is OK, used to be better and cheaper though, like everything else I guess. I don't like the owner. Plus, a few miles out 114, in Boyd, Freedom Fried Burger is a friendly place with a good burger. Across the street is Go Go Gumbo, so you're covered.

Champs Burger in Houston. Make sure you add bacon! Small location where you can only dine outside or in your car. In a warehouse district and has been in business over 50 years in the same location.

When I hit Giant Burger per Cast's recomendation it was on a Thursday afternoon adn very crowded, which was a good sign. I got the regualr bacon cheese burger. Meat was over cooked, bread was stale, bacon was tough, but the vegetables were good and fresh tasting. I wont be going back. I will be trying Freedom Fried Burger soon, if it's not good then I'm going to have Csat taken to the doctor for an evaluation

Tater Junction then the doc.

HAHA. Must have been a bad day I guess. I ate one today as a matter of fact. No bacon...cheese +grilled jalepenos...spot on. Elbow dripping good I tell ya. They are beginning to get carried away with the prices though...$11 for a burger and tots.....

Wingfields
Bells Better Burger
Maple and Motor
Angry Dog
Dairy - Ette
Hunky's

You talking about Dairy-ette at Ferguson and Oates? They have great shakes and malts, but I think Kellers has a better burger. Dairy-ette used to be very particular about the meat they bought, saying it had to have just the right fat content or it would be rejected. After the founder passed away, so did his vision for a tasty burger.

I've seen a few of these mentioned but here are a couple of mine: Storms-Burnet & Lampasas; Juicy's-Marshall; Ranch House Cafe-Canyon (great breakfast too).

That's the one. Maybe my memories are somewhat nostalgic, but I still find them better that a lot of other places.

I forgot Juicy's in Tyler. The beans are also on point. East Texas Burger Company in Mineola is good.

Alamo Springs Cafe outside of Fredericksburg.

Also, executive surf club in corpus christ but you are within walking distance of the ORIGINAL Whatburger.

Chris Madrid's in San Antonio

I'm surprised some of you cowboys and ranchers haven't mentioned your local sale barn. I had a great burger at our sale barn on monday.

Went to Giant Burger today. I thought it was really good and would go back again.

twisted root in dallas

Angry dog in downtown Dallas is best burger

Absolutely not!



Absolutely YES!

Kincaids in FTW or Champs outside downtown Houston

I had Dutch's down by TCU the other day....was very good!

Dutch's is top notch. The scenery is even better!

If you want a great burger, go to Lili's Bistro on Magnolia in FTW. House gorgonzola burger with gorg. waffle fries.

Phillips Café in Danbury, Texas.

$15 is pretty high for a burger.

The Moose's Roost (my house). Oh, this isn't a bragging thread? I'll get back on this one then.

-Mickey Moose

I will try this next week. Their menu looks amazing.

I'm in the Waco area and torn between a double double from Cupp's, a Lip Locker from Kitok's (with Oriental fries and sweet tea), a Super Health Burger from Health Camp (anything but healthy) or just a cheeseburger from Golinda Store. These pretty much all require rolled up sleeves and elbow coasters.

Edited to add: Pena's Country Store, in Rosenthol, won best burger in the county a few years, but I think their grill is closed, and Golinda Store is in a shut down has station just across the Falls County line on 77.

Snuffer's was very good.

Is. And I agree

Had the Bacon Bacon Burger today at Cheesecake Factory. Delicious! Best part was, they cooked it medium rare and it was good and juicy

Alamo Springs Cafe. It is located outside of Fredricksburg out in the middle of nowhere. Only serve burgers & fries & onion rings with lotsa cold beer. Always crowded & always good!

gotta throw in a vote for the Dixie Dog in Spur, TX. Had my first this past weekend. Now that's a tasty burger!
