I cook my own burgers at home. The price I'd pay for a burger at Five Guys is enough to buy like 2 lbs of ground beef, and then I have homemade burgers for days.

The best part of Five Guys is seeing what people will draw on those little cards they put up on the wall. Sometimes you find some insane works of art.

(And the fries. They always give you Too Many Fries.)

Yeah they basically fill up the cup with fries, dump it in the bag, then fill it a few more times for good measure. They're never crispy enough though!

Five guys fries are soggy garbage. At least In n Out's are just insultingly bland.

Sadly it's true. My Five Guys fries are either soggy or burned to hell. But they give you so many and dump enough salt on them that it's hard to complain.

Thanks to this burger chat, I went to The Habit for lunch. I prefer them over In-n-Out if only for the fact that In-n-Out fries are an abomination and the tempura green beans at The Habit are far better.

drat right you will; and you'll make it EXACTLY as we say you heathen.

Edmonton is Soda Jerks. Calgary is South Street Burger Co. Peter's Drive-In is garbage burgers though.

After that it is 5 guys>smash burger>Fatburger>>>>>>>Boardwalk

Also I just learned that A&W in Canada have been independent from the American Chain since the 70s and they have completely different menus.

Finally you guys are talking about something I can comment on.

There's a South Street Burger in Edmonton now too. I entirely forgot about them. I concur that they are the best.

Last time I had a burger I cooked the patties in my sous vide unit and then sizzled them up all nice and crispy in a ripping hot cast iron pan. Good poo poo. I'll get down with any old burger though. But Shake Shack is way too expensive for what you get.

This is the way to do it.

Sous Vide has a low barrier to entry now, start eating some really good burgers and steaks with minimal effort.

Take them out of the loving bag



How to eat fries like a smart person:

Take bag, rip longways. Place on table like a placemat. Dump fries from cup. Hot, moist air goes up into the restaurant instead of all the other goddamn fries.

Godspeed if you're trying to take them to go, though.

Get the CAJUN FRIES from Five Guys. It really helps compensate for them reliably being slightly over/undercooked.

This makes me sad since you live in the same city/state I do, go eat Johnny's Beef in Melrose, or heck, Al's beef in chicago, there's a hundred better beef places than Portillo's; it used to be really really good before they went super chain but now it's just mediocre at best.

I used to be way out in the West suburbs where it would take me an hour to get into the city during non-rush hour. Portillos was right across the street. Not a hard choice there.

Now I'm up north where it's 2+ hours into the city so that's a non starter

Big Johns Steak and Onion with red sauce and peppers is the best but unless you live in one of 3 cities (2 of which I’m pretty sure everyone actively avoids) you’ve probably never had one.

Cuban sandwiches are the one true sandwich.

Why do I root for Notre Dame? Because I like pain, and disappointment, and anguish. Notre Dame Football has destroyed more dreams than the Irish Potato Famine, and that is the kind of suffering I can get behind.
The SF-86 request came in on Monday, so I spent most of Tuesday filling it out. Only 44 pages this time - I wonder if DSS is trying to get more efficient and cut down on the time it takes to get a clearance. It was nice that my information from when I applied for my Secret was still available, and the form was actually smart enough that it would automatically rearrange entries based on their chronological order. That, in turn, meant I only spent 6 hours filling the form out, as opposed to a week or more as is generally expected.

Now it's time to enjoy the three-day weekend.

Not Cuban, but there’s a regional chain here that makes tortas that are some of the best tasting food between two pieces of bread you can eat.

When I go to a new restaurant and nothing jumps out at me on the menu, I will judge it by either the cuban or the reuban. They are both hard to do wrong and leave you totally disatisfied, but when they are great you know it.

Also Raising Canes is probably the best quick chicken tenders around as well also

The original Canes outside of LSU was really good but after they started expanding the quality really dropped.

That’s right, I’m making a sincere, hipster, “they got too commercial” post about fast food chicken. But I’m right.

I'd go so far as to call The Counter the best burger place in the portions of the country that I have visited. Slater's 50/50 was great, too. Best I've found since moving to DFW is probably Meteor in Wylie.
