I'm going to go with....no. I guess you didn't grow up in Texas They take a package of Fritos and split the bag sideways, pour in some chili and top with cheese It was delicious treat when at your local Football or sport game in the fall and winter time in Texas. Chili on Frito's....yes Chili on a hamburger....no It's not a hamburger. That's what I call a chili burger. Stanley's, Wichita Falls Legendary Bar B Q joint, made a Frisco Burger, Fritos were what made it great. Stanley’s had the beanie burger…amazing.

The DQ in Bowie has an expanded menu with a Chili Chess Burger on it. Very Good. I have never found any good food at DQ Love thier ice cream but the food is horrible overall DQ tacos are pretty dang good I got to take you word on that, I think they would taste like DQ tacos Where I live in Frisco, they have taco shops all over the place, so I have alot of choices DQ is a ice cream store, and should stick to that only. I have tried the hamburgers, belt buster, etc and the steak fingers, etc in the past, pretty bad overall and I like about any kind of food.

I Love me some Frito Pie, and I Love me a Whatburger double, but I dunno about mixing the two up (which each has it's own unique taste). I'd prolly pass. Just like I can't stand 'hazlenut' coffee or 'pumpkin-spice' coffee. Just give me a damn cup of regular coffee, and a slice of pumpkin pie - but not both in the same damn cup!

Try the Cinnabonn Hot Coffee from Taco Bell, it's pretty legit

@topwater. Do I have it wrong? The burger I'm talking about had frito's, chili, cheese and mustard. Was that a Beanie Burger or Frisco Burger? Been a loooooong time.

I have never found any good food at DQ Love thier ice cream but the food is horrible overall Tacos and steak finger basket are alright. When I was young the steak finger baskets were damn good, and was routine to eat there once a week after church. At some point long ago they changed the meat in the steak fingers and I haven't cared for the SFB since. Burgers are good when I'm hungry & in a hurry most of the time. Had the grilled chicken sandwich from DQ yesterday and it was bad, won't do that again. The Popey's blackened chicken sandwich is where it's at, that's a good sandwich. Even though we are covered up in Mexican restaurants, when I crave crispy tacos I go to DQ. They're good. I'm not big on chili burgers or chili dogs, messy. I'm still sore at Whataburger for getting rid of the A-1 Thick & Hearty Burger, it was the best. Life long Whataburger fan here, it pains me to say it but they aren't what they used to be either. They said nothing would change after the Chicago buy out, but they lied. Used to be better. Used to be tradition every Wednesday night when I was home I'd take my kids to Whataburger. We tried a little hole in the wall place here close to where I live and holy cow, those are some damn good burgers & gourmet hot dogs. Very seldom ever go to Whataburger anymore.

That Popeyes sandwich is great. Whataburgers Spicy chicken sandwich is good too. I can't wait for the Conroe DQ to open up.

Love chili burgers, have rarely had a bad one. If I'm not sure what to order at a new restaraunt I'll order a chili burger if they have it. If you can't make a chili burger taste good then I've got zero interest in trying anything else on your menu and doubt I'll be back.

Always order carne g first, if it's not good I won't be back.

Hispanic friend of mine just told me that. I was like wth are you talking about man, that is exactly what Mexican food is. I thought that is what guisada is made of - stewed whatever you want in a tortilla.

It's pretty good but not as good as the Chili Cheese Burger down in Surfside Tx. The Jetty Shack.

@topwater. Do I have it wrong? The burger I'm talking about had frito's, chili, cheese and mustard. Was that a Beanie Burger or Frisco Burger? Been a loooooong time. The one and only great Stanley's Beanie burger. Very similar to a frisco.....but Stanley's was outstanding. I was told the old man died and nobody wanted to take it over. Besides what you mentioned, it came standard with onions and japs. https://www.newschannel6now.com/story/29691526/icon-closing/

I tried it. Pretty good. Next time, I'll have them leave the fritos off. They actually detracted from the burger imo.

Had one for lunch yesterday because of this thread. It reminded me why I haven't been to Whataburger in years. Used to be a "go to" many years ago. Whatabuger has gone downhill since they started an agressive expansion way back when.

Here in Graham the DQ’s are privately owned and the food is good. We have a K&N root beer here that is close to 70 years old and on only its 3rd owner. They have the best chili cheese burger I have ever had.
some people like silver and gold I like brass and lead with a little powder in between
