White castle

[coctailer]

White Castle is the FIRST fast food burger joint in the USA, and for many years, they only employed male workers. Ties were required as part of the uniform.

That is your Trivia for today.

It's like Methadone to a Heroine addict.

Um, any of you own a BBQ and do any experimentation on your own? (with regard to hamburgers) unless you do not cook anything. My point being you can easily exceed ANY fast food hamburger flavor with a little work.

SONIC is SO bad. I cringe whenever my wife brings it home.

 

[Key-Hay]

have a Traeger but it's for Ribs, Brisket and Pizza (yes Pizza) can't do White castles on it.

Sonic and Carls Jr.

You sir, are a lunatic. j/k

ha, my wife agrees with me about Sonic over 5 guys, AND she agrees with you that I am a lunatic.

She reminded me that Helvetia Tavern has a great burger....and its huge. I do think that Burgerville is pretty darned tasty. But I must admit I have never had White Castle to compare.

Hamburgers are an art - you have to take some time to get them right. One thing is for certain though - pre cut and saute onions, and sprinkle them on the burger after the flip over and place the cheese on top to melt through.

That guy sold out years ago I wonder if they are still any good?

Trlsmn...curse you for showing that In an Out double double.
Good news is that I've heard that In an Out is moving to oregon. They are supposedly setting up their central operations facility in eugene. I didn't hear an opening date but I am anxiously waiting for it to open. I can taste the 4x4 (the first of many) already.

The new owners of Helvatia aren't using he same suppliers. The quality is not what it used to be.
They sold their famous burgers for a while at the River Roadhouse in Milwaukie after selling Helvatia.
I think they are totally out of the biz now. I wish I had the recipe for "The Goop"

Now see there is a fine example of not messing with perfection.

Holy Crap, that Stanich Samich looks great! Real food though....we were talking about crap. where is Stanich's, Mikeli?

 

[Key-Hay]

Beaumont district, Portland. 47th and NE Freemont. Use to live there before it got trendy.

If you tried Stanish's West off Macadam, you know it was waaaaay better than the Beaumont store.
I used to live by the Beaumont one and drove across town to the other one when I had the urge for a BCB.

Sadly, it is gone now.

Cocktailer. Do you remember Rose's Ice cream on 45th?

 

[judicator]

Personally, I prefer a Red Robin Whiskey River BBQ burger or a Banzai Burger over any of 'em.

But then, I've never tried an In-an-Out, or a White Castle......Five Guys isn't that great, either

In terms of fast food, Burger King or Burgerville are my default choices.
