Fast food burgers taste so much better

[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]Whomever is feeding you burgers should be shot if you think fast food burgers taste better. There is no comparison when a fresh, homemade burger is done right.slipknot0129

Hardee's and Carl's Jr. are both the same, it all depends on which side of the Mississippi you are on. Still, homemade is better as you can eat it while it is fresh off the grill. Fast food joints typically take burgers out of warmers, including Carl's Jr.

[QUOTE="slipknot0129"]I dont know man. Nothing in the world smells or tastes better than a char broiled burger from Carls Jr. Hard to make a convincing arguement against that.

One can make a burger taste any way they want at home. Mix in some Liptons Onion Soup Mix or Worcestershire sauce into the meat before cooking it on a grill where any kind of wood can be used to smoke the meat some to impart flavors, and they are not dried out.

The simple fact is, it usually is the fat in the burger that gives it it's taste and more often than not, fast food burgers are cooked so much that they are dried out hockey pucks with no flavor. 

Doesnt have that signature flavor to me.slipknot0129

Agreed, that's what I said

Burgers are one of those things any restaurant can put together easily. Other food has a much broader spectrum in how they are made in a sit down restaurant.

As have I. 

It seems that in every thread about fast food I learn about a new fast food place. There must be hundreds in America.PernicioEnigma

Learn to cook and increase your standards

Id say everything else besides burgers and Panda express is better in a sit down restaurant. Panda express doesnt compare to any asian restaurant ive been to. The Orange chicken and the other stuff are totally better. Fried rice is better in a sit down asian restaurant though.

Sounds like you've never gone to a GOOD Chinese restaurant. I'll give it to you, Panda Express is better than a lot of Chinese sit-down restaurants, but good Chinese restaurants blow Panda Express out of the water.

In Texas there's this place called "what-a-burger" they're pretty kewl.

WhiteKnight77

This is the original What-A-Burger and it isn't in Texas and has better bugers than the chain does. 

And it's "original" by months. Both the Texas Whataburger and that What-A-Burger were opened in 1950.

It depends on where the burger is from. A well-prepared burger, either at home or at a restaurant, is so much better. For example, there is a local restaurant here, Burgatory, and their burgers are amazing. Easily some of the best I've ever had. Fast food burgers are too greasy and bland. 

Back when I had a charcoal grill, I'd make my own burgers. Those kicked ass.

I now live 26 stories high, and therefore it'd be illegal for me to have a charcoal grill...so now I just don't get burgers :/

Fast food burgers are complete crap compared to home made.

I should add that I absolutely cannot even stand to be near a mcdonalds, the smell of the place is revolting.

Yes, I have eaten at both. The one I posted is on Jefferson Ave in Newport News, VA. I used to go to intermediate school (Jr. High) just down the street from it. They make their burgers while you wait, just like 5 Guys and Steak 'n' Shake. They have big burgers like 5 Guys does. Also, how would I know if one was better than the other if I hadn't eaten at both? ;)

Yeah, the chain tried to sue and the court sided with the original. If there were more of the VA store, I think the outcome could have been different with the Texas chain losing the name.

Go get a small grill, go to a park. Make hamburgers. Win? 

Fast food is so underrated. Sure, nutritional quality is sh*t, but it's an enjoyable meal to have once in a while.

[QUOTE="Nengo_Flow"]

I've been hooked on these for the last 4 days:

The Pretzel Bacon Cheesburger from Wendy's... so good. I get the double tho... cuz i need the extra pounds.

And you know whats great? it actually looks like the on in the picture in real life.

Hallenbeck77

It's not too bad--tried it last week, but it's WAY too greasy.

I love the large square burgers that Wendy's has. :DAquat1cF1sh

That has to be the worst "burger" on the market.

No. I'll admit, I do enjoy eating fast food, but when it comes to quality and flavor, homemade easily trumps it, and burgers are no exception.

Umami Burger trumps them all. Hands down. If you are lucky enough to have been to a Public School, then those trump Umami Burger.

The hell do you live where that's even possible?

I think fast food burgers taste so much better than a traditional burger. At Carl Jr's or Mcdonalds they make the best burgers I think. White Castle is also good. Do you like fast food burgers better than a traditional burger?

Its just that signature smell, taste, and texture you dont get out of a traditional burger. I avoid non fast food burgers at all costs. Like last night I made sloppy joes while everyone else ate hamburgers.

being a health conscious i don't support any form of the fast food no matter whatsoever it is .. Allenmorgan1234

mcdonalds cheese burgers are my favorite by far, no competition

fast food burgers for me.

dumb question.

their are far to many variables to make a decision.

I would've said that I enjoyed fast food burgers over traditional burgers, but that was before I started ordering them medium rare.

To me, they are two totally different things.

fast food is cheap and tosic and great.

traditional burgers are a proper meal.

My top 3

The giant from quick (europe)

The Mc deluxe from mc donalds (europe)

3. The bicky burger

I don't really get the love for Five Guys tbh, don't get me wrong I think they are decent I just don't understand why they seem to be so highly revered. To me Steak and Shake is far better.

I like fast food burgers. They're cheap and tasty.
