Looks like In-N-Out is headed to Texas (Houston, Waco: appointed, Home Depot)

Yeah, when I was living in Houston everytime I would make that 3 1/2 hour trek back & forth from Tyler I would always have to stop at Texas Burger for a burger, fry, & shake. The cloest one to Houston is in Madisonville or Centerville I believe.

LOL, true about DQ, but it's not . We usually always stop at DQ, usually the one in Columbus, on the way to San Antonio. And I think the Texas Burger is in Centerville. Not sure.

NOTHING beats a Herd burger from Herd's in Jacksboro, TX

I wasnt impressed with whataburger..at all...reminded me of burgers from lunch time at high school...*BARF*...perhaps I was at one of the "bad" locations..

In-N-Out and BK are the best 2, imo...a well made hot-n-fresh whopper is hard to top!

They all have their qualities, I like Whataburger a lot though.

LOL @ big name burger chains being any good

I said it before & I'll say it again. The best burgers are found at the mom & pops joints in small insert town USA. Nuff said

Burger King can't even hold a candle to Texas Burger

In-N-Out is popular because its in Cali. & we don't have one here...yet. Texans worry too much about what they don't have, which isn't much, we have everything at our disposal & more already.

I remember when the first Krystal's (Whitecastle equivalent) opened in Houston off 1960 a few years ago it was all the rage till the new wore off. Not sure how they're faring now, especially in this economic crisis we're currently in.

Had me a Dairyette Burger on Friday. YUM!!! I'd put it up against ANY chain of any size. Same goes for Keller's. Dairyette (In Dallas) has awesome fries as well. Oh, and I had an In-n-Out burger this past Sunday so it is still in my memory and comparing the two............. Dairyette.

There used to be one in Huntsville. I'm not sure if it's still there. Texas Burger is GOOD! So is DQ. I do agree the best burgers are found at the mom and pop joints, though.

Quality does seem to vary from location to location these days. But when you find a good one...

BK is my least favorite of the burger chains tied with McD's... YUCK!
