I'm hankering for a good cheeseburger...may have to break out the grill this winter and make my own....had a spectacularly crappy one the other day....maybe a trip to Fudruckers is due....my chitty memory suggests they did an ok burger.....I do like Ted's ....a lot, but it is a bit of a trip....and I sorta hate getting a $50 bill for two burgers and drinks.....Red Robin used to be ok, too....didn't it? Still?

I have been to both in the past year, and they are still good. The stack of onion rings at Red Robin is worth a trip. Fuddrucker's prices have gone up, so it may not be as good a value, unless you drink cheese sauce or make a salad out of the lettuce, tomato, onions and pickle...

I still hit Fudd fuddruckers occasionally for lunch. Decent burgers... I like that you can choose a size.

Only been to fuckrudders once but it was tasty... red robin, probably depends on which one you go to... i haven't had good experiences...

Chili's makes a good burger... eat lunch there about once a week or so.. bartender is pretty and friendly so that helps... 😟

Reminded me of somethin.. years ago I was in there and the waiter at the time asked how I wanted my burger cooked... he said because they use angus beef I could have my burger rare if I wanted... wondered who told him it was ok.. 😟

...dunno... maybe the angus beef salesman?

TW told him you liked it raw.

I think the concept of why ground beef has to be cooked just went way over his head... Steaks of course are different.. but this guy couldn't grasp it... 😟

Ground sirloin served raw on cocktail rye with slice of onion....heaven....usedtawas a holiday tradition where I grew up in Milwaukee...hope it still is

The Islands franchise also ask you how you like your burger cooked and do not put warning statements on their menus about under-cooked ground beef...:-k

I'll eat a medium well burger at home but I was surprised this was being offered at a restaurant.. the reasoning is what really got me tho... Is Angus somehow immune to bacteria and stuff..?? 🤔

Yeah no. Beef is beef; when it comes to ground, we're banking that the beef is ground in house. You can typically have a burger cooked to medium without issues most places that serve fresh never frozen beef but the fact remains there's a minute chance for e coli.

I always order my burgers medium rare. I've only had maybe 1 cooked that way. No one seems to be able to cook them less than medium. If the meat is ground in house and kept properly there is almost no risk.

True... true... but would the kind of beef make any difference.. 😕
