What do you order at Whataburger?

Whataburger has incredibly high inconsistency between locations. The one on S. Shepherd in Houston is consistent its suckage. I've started bypassing that one and ordering from the one on Westheimer in River Oaks which has much better quality. Even then, I will order ahead on the app for in-store pick-up, wait until my allotted time and still have to wait 5-10 minutes to get my order. 

Aw man, I passed that WB earlier this year and had to reminisce on the couple times we skipped class and ate there as Seniors at Lamar. We usually drove our ass back to our side of town (Southeast) before rush hour traffic, but now I wish I'd enjoyed the good Whataburger location more.

I lived down the street on Timmons for a year during law school in the 90s.  That River Oaks Whataburger was my go-to.  It's been solid for decades.  I miss it along with Baily's.

 

Man, with those two plus the summit, 1990s Timmons was great!

I don’t like a sloppy burger.  This chili thing seems like it would require an entire napkin dispenser.

There’s no such thing as a good sandwich/burger doesn’t require multiple napkins.

I think I went through 2 upsell requests and 3 condiment questions this morning when I made a very simple "sausage and egg biscuit, no cheese" order.  Are people really saying "why not" to a Whataburger apple pie on a whim at 7:30 a.m.?  Will Whataburger than ask if you want cheese on the apple pie?

You have to think ahead. "It's going to almost be lunch time by the time I get my breakfast order. Maybe I should go ahead and order the pie.?"

I'm resisting the temptation to make a Jimmy Two-Times joke.

 

Them:  Would you like to try our new Whatacatch Taquito with tartar sauce?

 

Me:  I'd like a sausage and egg biscuit, no cheese.

 

Them:  Anything else.

 

Me:  No, thank you.  That's all.

 

Them:  Would you like to add an apple pie.

 

Me:  No.  Just the sausage/egg biscuit.  That's all.

 

Them:  Would you like jelly with that?

 

Me:  No.

 

At the window

 

Them:  Bacon and egg biscuit, no cheese.

 

Me:  No.  Sausage and egg biscuit, no cheese.

 

Them:  Confusedly looking at the bag and screen.  Sausage? 

 

Me:  Yes.

 

Them:  Okay.  Sausage and egg biscuit, no cheese.  Would you like jelly?

 

Me:  Fine.  Whatever. 

 

If any of you lovely Chicagoans are reading this, I think I could fix the slow line problem for you.

Wait... what the ever living fuck? So there's not a jap cheddar biscuit, but there's a FUCKING WHATACATCH TAQUITO? 

SMDH.

might try a whatacatch on a tortilla

[deft 6,892]

The “fish taco” at LJS is a guilty pleasure.

[Mo Horn 8,855]

It was a good night tonight. Patty Melt, added bacon, fries, and a chocolate malt. Top notch. 

[Fudbelty 2,791]

Don’t think I’ve ever had a whatacatch, but a fish taquito seems interesting.


Brings me to a point of contention in my home. When ordering a taquito do you say “tah-key-toe” or “tuh-key-toe”?

[elfenix 34,343]

tuhkeydoh

[Deej 76,981]

I'll never understand the taquito love in a state that is home to the breakfast taco and has thousands and thousands of better options. 

[Fudbelty 2,791]

tuhkeydoh

You’re dead to me.

[Js1 85,629]

Sweet and spicy burger and fries were cold last night. After waiting for a good 20 minutes. Every time I try, I just leave disappointed again

Also definitely team breakfast taco >>> breakfast tuhkeytoe

[TornACL 7,732]

I come here again to sing the praises of the Whataburger chili cheese burger. 

It's nearly a religious experience.

Imagine the first time you saw a beautiful sunset. Except instead of enjoying it with your eyes you're enjoying it with your taste buds.

This is not to sell short the visual asthetic of the burger. Once unwrapped it is daunting, but welcoming. 

Once you start to eat it, though, the world stops. Nothing matters but burger. If my house caught fire I would suffer third degree burns if it meant I could stand here and finish this tasty burger.

Of course, some might say the wise move would be to flee the house, burger in hand. But that would mean wasting precious seconds between bites of this pure unadulterated joy.

Chili Cheeseburger for President 2024.

It's not really the same thing, there's no real comparison between the two. Nobody considers Whataburger taquitos to be Mexican or Tex-Mex food.  Just like nobody considers Taco Bell or JITB tacos to be Mexican or Tex-Mex food. And yet plenty of them are sold all over the state.  Whataburger taquitos and Taco Bell and JITB tacos are just junk food, and often drunk food, that exists outside the realm of real, actual food.

Yeah, nobody's confusing it for legit Tex-Mex.  But anyone who wants to argue that eggs and hash browns wrapped up in a tortilla isn't tasty, go right ahead.

If that Cheese is Sharpe Cheddar then go ahead, if it isn’t, that’s straight up hood rat shit and you need to rethink life. 
Even at Whataburger there are lines that shouldn’t be crossed.

forgot about this thread...

posting bc we had to take family to get rental car at CoSprings airport this morning (SWA clusterfuck fallout) and stopped here on the way home and it was pretty damn good, tasted exactly how i wanted/expected!

just a plain #4 for me.

was a nice location, fast, hot, and correct... can't beat that 😄

Just sampled the chili cheeseburger for the first time and subbed grilled onions for regular, fantastic. Louetta and Stuebner Airline is good for about 90% of the visits, rarely fucks up.  Time for a nap.

Got the #2 last night, kept it simple and was much better than previous WB visit.

No, but I certainly feel blessed to have read your post and gotten the idea now...

[deft 6,892]

When I was a poor HS kid, I’d order a grilled cheese with a tomato slice in it at the greasy burger joint in Mexia. Kinda like a grilled cheese with tomato soup. I wanna say that sammy, plus fries and a can of coke was around $1.75 in 99.

[tx 3 putt 77,595]

I saw it on TikTok last night and assign tomatoes to a grilled cheese is a pro move
