Which is the best HAMBURGER fast food chain?

Only hamburgers, so rule out taco bell, pizza hut or KFC... (even if some of them do have hamburgers, they are not mainly hamburger chains)

which one would be your choice? I like carl's jr because the burgers are big, well cooked and the beef is juicy on the inside.

wendy's comes close, but I really dont like how they serve their burgers with cold ketchup/mustard.

burger king also comes very close, closer than wendy's, its just too damn good...too bad its so expensive in comparison to others.

and lastly mcdonalds, the burgers there are just ridiculously small.

McAnything. :D

Major chain: McDonalds
Small chain: In N Out

[QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"] I'm assuming Five Guys doesn't count.lightleggy

For me, it is either Steak 'n' Shake or Five Guys.

If I have to eat it, maybe Wendy's for the Baconator or Dairy Queen.

Haven't had any of the smaller ones or ones that are only in the States.

I suggest reading this: http://www.gq.com/food-travel/alan-richman/201012/umami-burger-los-angeles-best-burger-alan-richman No where that ships their burgers in freeze dried will ever make a good burgermarkop2003

Gotta represent a Texas institute.

I'll be honest, before i turned veggy, i liked Maccy D burgers, even though i knew they were abhorrent to eat and support the chain, they were lovely.

Also its not a chain but the burger van that was in my town did the best burgers on the planet. I once had a triple cheeseburger there, thought i was going to have a coronary.

On the list, I have to go with BK.

Other than that, I'm going with Five Guys. The burgers/fries look like sht, but dammit they taste amazing.

The name was changed bc Burger King was already trademarked in Australia.

[QUOTE="Pirate700"]Is Hungry Jack's owned by Burger king or something? Their logo and color scheme is exactly the same.

For the global chains I'll say Carls Jr. or Wendy's. Smaller would be Five Guys and Astro Buger.

They are just called one name or the other in different locations. No idea why though.Pirate700

Hardee's was bought by Carls Jr. back in 1996 (think it was then, fuzzy on the year). Hardee's was a fast food resturant for like 30 years already, so they kept the name in those locations. They now serve the same exact menu from what I know.

[QUOTE="Austindro"]

[QUOTE="AussieePet"] Well in AUS its called Hungry Jack's , Hungry Jack is a franchise of Burger King. So technically they are the same company, but as they are not owned corporately, but have individual owners, the name is changed.

Same here.

National Chain: Wendy's

Regional Chain: Culvers

Good man.

The best Whataburger around is the one on Jefferson Ave in Newport News VA just down from Mercury Blvd. Their burgers are fresh made. I don't even think they are associated with WHATABUGER in Texas.

Probably go with Five Guys, but for major chains probably Wendy's.

They are not, they did not even know about each other until about 1970. I only know this bc I read the wikipedia page for Whataburger last night.
