Love Kincaids. Ate at the one in Southlake a couple of weeks ago

[GrTigers6]

I hear the Green Pickle in downtown Glen Rose is really good. Havent eatin there yet but I have never heard anything bad about them.

[Matthew328]

Kincaid's is awesome...I think Mary's has an awesome burger also

[Ville]

Been going to Kincaid's forever. My dad took me there long ago on Camp Bowie. Been to the one in Arlington as well its really good but not the same exactly.
Grumps is similar in Granbury, Stephenville.
And when I travel this wonderful Country im always looking for Five Guys or In and Out.

[Txbroadcaster]

butcher shop in Longview one of my favorites


back when Joe Willey had a place on Greenville Street in Dallas it was one of the best burgers around

[bigwood33]

We have a great butcher shop in Whitesboro that is called The Meat Market. A few years ago they opened a grill and make burgers, sandwiches, and a great chicken fried steak. Their burgers are as good as anyone's...fantastic.

Also, Denton County Independent Hamburger Company is outstanding...I prefer the original location on the square.

[pancho villa]

Gus's BBQ in Texas City awsome
36 Bar and Grill in Needville awsome
Dixie Chicken College Station awsome

[StangEm]

Agreed. I try to make it by there every time I go through Ft. Worth.

[Old Tiger]

Depends on the type of burger.


Just a regular ol Hamburger I'd say Shroeders in Thorndale


For a specialty burger I'd say the buffalo burger from Casino El Camino in Austin.



There is this little burger joint up here in Waco near TSTC campus called Burgers Galore. They have a big cheese that is marvelous. Comes with onion rings loads of cheese and more.

Royers Round Top Cafe in Round Top has a pretty good burger.

Angry Dog

[jdawg2012]

Hamburger Depot in Jasper, Nederland, or Beaumont.

[playnhurt]

White's BBQ in Port Lavaca has a killer burger and great homemade onion rings to go with it!

[SHSBulldog00]

Five Guy's

[Blue42]

Hinze's Barbeque in Sealy makes a great burger.

[Blue42]

Had a MOOYAH burger last night in Deer Park that was darn good

[SintonFan]

I'd put the Gourmet Burger Co against anyone.

http://www.facebook.com/GourmetBurgerGrill

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Five Guy's i didnt even know there was one in Corpus Christi and first time seeing one, it's my best hamburger place now when i don't want a sonic or whataburger.

[Ville-D]

They are not in Texas, but Fat Burger makes a pretty good burger for a fast food joint.

[Pendragon13]

None of the chains qualify to be in this discussion...Kincaid's is good no doubt, but my current fave is Heff's in Abilene.

[sweetwater07]

Grumps...Stephenville, Tx...period

I'm the biggest guy on here, so let me take you on a burger journey of Texas...

Chris Madrid's in San Antonio - my favorite. I have never had a bad burger there. It is amazing what they do.
Dan's in Austin - a lot of people are more familiar with Hut's. Dan's puts them away. I mean seriously.
Hut's in Austin - Pretty good, but the onion rings make up for any shortcoming
Beaver's in Houston - worth every bit of the $9. Seriously, try this thing.
New Hope Grocery in New Hope, TX - my favorite greasy smalltown burger, and I'm ashamed that I haven't eaten there in a while and taken my kids. I ought to be ashamed.
Rick's Chophouse in McKinney, TX - best fancy pants burger place in Texas. Best burger I've ever eaten, but it's going to cost you.
Patty Shack in Grand Prairie - toppings are mixed into the meat then cooked. Sounds like a cluster waiting to happen, but it's pretty stinking good.

Don't take my word for it, try them out.

[T-Time]

Was in the Fredericksburg area and had a great burger at Alamo Springs, also great fried avacado.

[bobcat1]

Burger Kitchen in Celina
Hurds in Jacksboro
Sportsman Valero in Sanger
Kincaids
Tommy's on Loop 820 in Fort Worth
Scott's Drive In in Wichita Falls Home of the Big Scotty
I don't know if they are still open but Pat's in Wichita Falls was good too

Chain: Whataburger

Heart Attack Grill.

Obviously dedicated to the research of best burger, you are to be commended!

Hut's in Austin (I haven't tried Dan's)
Mike's BBQ in Liberty Hill (they smoke their 1/2 lb patties to perfection)

Back in the day -
Fat Boy Burger in Littlefield

Will have to try Mike's next time there. It is hard to find a burger cooked over real charcoal/wood.

Dairy Treet in Victoria Tx.

Corner of Crestwood and Laurent. Same place it's been for the last 50+ years.

[Txbroadcaster]

One of the best burgers I ever was at a gas station Grill(Chevron I think) just outside of Carthage, my boss loved going there on lunch and they nailed it to perfection every time

[Ville]

Dairy Palace I think its in Canton off 1-20 is a good one

[CenTexSports]

When we moved to Weatherford back in 1968 the best was Clyde's Hamburgers. The special was 10 for a buck. I don't care how good of a burger you get today, you can never beat 10 for $1.00.

[Tx Challenge]

Mikes in Liberty Hill! I miss those! I am sorry for all those that mention In N Out or Five Guys. I can walk to In N Out and know the "special menu" Five guys is a short drive away. If that is greatness to you, your standards are low!

[slingshot]

Perini's in Buffalo Gap...

Actually its called Old World Meat Market. was just in there the other day and bought some summer sausage and sirlion. They import some stuff from Fischer's Meat Market in Muenster. If you have never been to Fischers you are missing out. A bit pricey but well worth it in the return you get for quality. Their Strudel's are the best, especially the Rasberry Cheese Strudel.

[LIONS#1]

Heck I still like Storms in Lampasas as well as Hamilton and Marble Falls!!!! Great Burgers!!

[big daddy russ]

I've changed my tune, y'all. While nobody's been able to top a Kokomo Cafe burger (R.I.P.) yet, Burger Fresh in Conroe is at least as good.

I'm gonna have to try a few of these places. I think the only non-chains on this list I've had were Chris Madrid's, Dixie Chicken/Chicken Oil, and Hinze's. All were well worth the price of admission.

Seems like a lot of people are throwing Kincaid's out there. That'll have to be an eventual stop as well.

There used to be one in College Station, not too long ago either. May still be there.

Just for the record Kincaids was my first choice and GRUMPS very similar. Been to Butcher shop in Longview my friends dad owned it.
As far as IN AND OUT and Five Guys they are good but not top. As far as my standards go they are as high as Giraffe pu$$y.

[Twirling Time]

Chains: In-n-Out and it's not close.

Mom-&-Pops: Watsonburger in Denison. They closed their Sherman restaurant last month, which saddened me. I did my best to keep them in business.

Is the Warda Store in Warda still serving the Warda Burger?

That is a lot of Warda's in one sentence.

Love Kincaids. Ate at the one in Southlake a couple of weeks ago

I used to eat there for lunch everyday when I worked in Southlake. Still I believe Whataburger is still tops.

[LionFan72]

"Best Dam Burger" in Texas is at Wild Duck Marina, Lake Brownwood, Texas. Great folks serving there too! And what a view.

After eating at Kincaid's on Camp Bowie (Ft. Worth) , they have my vote on best burger.
i hear the praise on kincaids often but i just don't see it. didn't want to judge them on just one visit... so i went a few time and left dissatisfied each time. always enjoyed burgers at bucknloons in Arlington. was sad to see them close down. for another mom and pop shop... i used to enjoy airways in Arlington on Collins... but its been a few years since I've gone.

i tried eating a burger at Marys cafe.wondered why they said it was an extra wait on the burgers... until they came out. monster burger! Hahaha

i've eaten many more burgers the past year and a half since last updated... the best one i've eaten is in an old gas station in crowley texas called nicky d's. it's the only place that gets better with each visit.

[regaleagle]

Google up Alamo Springs Café outside of Fredericksburg in the country close to Luchenbach. Check out the reviews and if you're a burgermeister, you may want to give it a shot. Fred's also got wineries and lots of other touristy things going on practically every single weekend of the year. Christmas season(after Nov.30th) is a great time to explore this town and this area. The ladies seem to like it better than the men, though. There's a great golf course in Fred.....Ladybird at the State Park here. It's on the river and I can verify you will enjoy your round. I played yesterday for only $35 w/cart fee. It's a $65 type course in SA, Dallas, and Austin all day long, even this time of the year. Actually, this is the BEST time of year to hit it. The greenfees are cheaper now and it's cooler weather.

I second that Airways in Arlington is worth a visit. It's very near to Cowboys Stadium and Rangers Ballpark

[FB-fanatic]

Had a great burger yesterday for lunch in Waco at Captain Billy Wizzbanger's - ground bacon and beef combo burger, extra greasy. Was darn good. Ran into a handful of the opposing teams parents and got to talk smack while dining on a good burger - couldn't get much better.

Wizzbanger's name not as creative as Fat Ho though......

[cougartino]

Burger Park on MLK just south of 610 in Houston. They give you a boatload of fries and their extra large watermelon slushies put Sonic to shame. You can't get in that place on a Saturday.

Fugler's Meat Market in between Marshall and Harleton. Home of the Bubba Burger, it's huge!

[cards4me]

Jr's Smokehouse in Wharton has a really good burger. It is a smoked burger. They smoke the meat like BB'Q. They cook the meat in advance so you do not wait for ever. Really good flavor

in-n-out burger doesnt hold a candle to many places. it's okay for something quick, but nothing to write home about.

The Harvester in El Campo in the 50s and 60s. Also Rita's, Rose Drive In, Dorotik's, Lands, and the very best were at the Tumble In. you could get them for a nickle after school. There isn't a place in Texas that can maker a burger like they did back then. The health dept. probably wouldn't let them.

[Scoop27]

Emil's in El Campo as well

The Hill in Waller is really good. don't know if they are still open. and everyone on this thread has ate this burger!!!!!!! your mom's and they are always good. lol
