Burgers

[Biff Tannen 45665]

@HenryJames eats too many burgers imo

 

 

 

but now I'm going to Crown

[jimmyjazz 45891]

Crown & Anchor, no opinion necessary:

[Mittens 8258]

Dan’s N Lamar, actual

[Deej 76755]

Is that finger indentation in the bun yours or the cooks?

[ftf82 485]

if you could combine C&A's burger with Dan's curly fries and Billy's beer selection I'd never go anywhere else again. And I'd die within 24 months.

You’re assuming it was a finger.

[HenryJames 66038]

Dirty’s, imo.

[jimmyjazz 45891]

Grill a little overheated?

Damn. Looks like i'm hitting up Dan's soon.

[HenryJames 66038]

[ztejas 43411]

Dan's. (Manchaca)

[jimmyjazz 45891]

Did 5280 tonight.  Eh.  Better than Hopdoddy, not worth the money.  Crown, Casino El Camino and Top Notch are all better.  Fries were soggy and terrible.  Onion rings were legit.

Came in to Hopdaddy 512 IPA Waiting on my burger. We’ll see…

Went to crown before the pearl jam concert on Monday. The college kids at our table had never heard of PJ. I felt old. Burger was as good as ever.

[Patricio Swayze 17058]

HenryJames eats more hamburgers than I eat BBQ. Motion to change his name to Wimpy. Or JamesWellington.

[jw4381 3070]

It’s ok.

That has nothing to do with age. Those youngsters were retards.

[Deej 76755]

Had Dirty's for lunch. Not too shabby. Kasey Studdard sat next to us at the bar. The man can take down a burger in the blink of an eye.

Well they were just fucking morons then.  That's like me telling my parents I had never heard of the Stones or something.

He's there all the time. I know this because I'm there all the time.

Anybody tried the burgers at Workhorse Bar on North Loop?  

[KaiserSoze 998]

I have, but it has been a few years since my last visit. My memory is that it was above average - pretty darn good.

[jimmyjazz 45891]

Answered my own question -- burgers were very good, fries were "eh".  Cool bar.

How long has that been there?  I live relatively close by and drive past that area all the time, and frequent Foreign & Domestic and Drink Well.  I've never paid much attention to the vintage shops and other places on that funky strip off North Loop and Avenue F, so I easily could have been missing Workhorse for quite some time.  The beer and cocktail menu look pretty strong.

[stc 1460]

must've been there 10 years at this point.

Echoing this, I think they have an underappreciated burger.

At least 12 years; my wife and I had out first date at The Tigress and it was there then.  I like that both places are very much neighborhood joints and not loved to death.

[jimmyjazz 45891]

2nd-grader couldn't eat a whole Workhorse burger, so I ate the other half for lunch.

That's a DAMN good burger.  Thick, perfect medium rare plus, juicy, seasoned appropriately.  Combined with fries and select local pints for less than $14, well . . . new hangout for Mr. & Mrs. JJ.

Tigress is my favorite cocktail bar in the city. Super friendly workers and guests too.

[dirtonia 269]

Workhorse is awesome and the owner is a good dude.. check ‘em out fo sure.

Highly recommend Bill's Burger at Bill's Oyster of Third and Colorado.  I didn't take a picture because I was starving when it came to the table so I just scarfed it down without thinking to take a shot with my phone.  The burger meat is a combo of brisket and short rib.

[Hook1997 5351]

Leroy and Lewis smoked brisket burger, delicious.  

[HenryJames 66038]

Sourduck, imo.

I'm sorry, but that's fucking nuts, inheritance or no.

[Deej 76755]

Shit, man, it's 10 bucks for a Whataburger.

Yeah I checked the menu. It comes with fries, too. Not bad.

And you'll get it 20 minutes faster than a Whataburger. 

[Deej 76755]

I paid $12 for a shiity Which Wich sandwich three doors down this week.

If I'd gotten the large, it would have been $17.

That's not a bad deal for that burger and fries.

People have mentioned burgers like the one at Roaring Fork without any indignation over price, and that’s an $18 burger.

Sometimes a really good burger cost more than a place like Dan’s or Dirty’s, and that’s okay.

[HenryJames 66038]

[4th&Five 41519]

Had a burger at Top Notch tonight and ran into this crowd…

[Hermanator 7032]

Getting the striped socks for the Darla is commitment to the character 

[4th&Five 41519]

The dude dressed as Pink nailed it but he was setting up their camera so he’s not in it. They said it’s their yearly tradition. 

[MAUFRAIS 6619]

Ambivalent towards those redheads.
