Fast food burger rankings

In-N-Out and Five Guys tie for the win. I’ve never been to three of the 18 places surveyed here — In-N-Out, Burgerville and Back Yard Burgers — but I’m mostly OK with the rankings until they get near the back end. Burger King is gross, and no one in his right mind could say it’s better than Jack In The Box, my former employer. Culver’s, ranked 6th, is excellent. One chain that didn’t make the list — Denver-area favorite Good Times — would probably crack the top 5 if it did.

  1. Backyard is really good. It’s not too far either, there’s at least one at Penn State. It would give you an excuse to go see an Penn State football game, which is pretty much a must do at some point in your life, if you haven’t already.

    If you find a decent BK, the Whooper is hard to beat from the bigger fast food chains, and Jack in the Box is pretty disappointing. I lived in Houston for 2 years and Whataburger is pretty good, but I didn’t think it was anything too special.

  2. so many good burgers, tough to argue rankings like that. but for reals, no red robin? you can get m.f.’n potatoes au gratin on that s. red robin is the straight up tetons. and free refills on fries! rekanize!
