For me, Steak n Shake is GOAT. Where else can you get such an awesome burger for $4. 10x better than anything from Wendy's or Mcd's. The fries are pretty damn good too. So I ask you OC, what's your favorite burger. Whether it's fast food or not.

At home.

I can't stand ordering a burger at a restaurant. Never can get it cooked at the right temp.

1) My own grass fed cow
2) 5 guys
3) Red Robin

I usually don't get burgers out unless it is a burger joint.

I had a burger made under the supervison of Gordon Ramsey last week, not sure I'll be able to top that.

Get a double hamburger with just mayo and mustard.
I'm sure it's good, but mayo and mustard together just sounds like vomit to me.

Was it the first time you have had it?

I've never had a bad burger there. First time I had it was a few years back in North Carolina in Knightdale. After that, I hoped they would bring it north. Not long after that, they started sprouting up everywhere.

I lived in Columbus for 7 years and never been there....its sad.

Lately I've been on this around here called Bare Burger. It's kinda like Ted's Montana Grill. You can choose the meat....beef, ostrich, bison, lamb. I"ve had something different every time. All were pretty damn good. Never had the ostrich.

I've had Five Guys once and wasn't that impressed. The burger was okay but not as good as I expected.

Good burger, but for the money....meh. I can get Thurmans for about the same price and it is 100x better.

5 guys is the most overrated burger out there.

Steak & Shake certainly has great burgers... A double with cheese is GOAT.

Their fries are average though and they don't keep heat very long... It seems as soon as you take them out the bag they get cold. I prefer their onion rings which are amazing.

5 Guys is right there though. Luckily, 5 Guys is opening up here in Sandusky as well, so I'll enjoy both a plethora of times.
