[Killer Bee]

what a coincidence - four co-workers and I were at the Habit for lunch today and the in-n-out animal style subject was brought up

as I alluded to in my post above - in-n-out is not the absolute best however excel or lead in some key categories regarding food

extremely consitent and reliable - you will get the exact same burger and fries at any location, any day, and any time. it will be hot, fresh, and tasty every single time. you will be hard pressed to find any other fast food service that can beat in-n-out in that category. so go ahead and look back at those times you were starving to death, working late in the field, or whatever circumstances you were at the mercy of a fast food restaurant and received something barely edible. Working long hours in the field, I can recall many many times this has happened to me.

friendly and courteous staff - always cheerful greeting and pleasant interaction with staff at in-n-out, always. Don't even need to ask, I know everyone reading this has encountered fast food servers you wanted to bend over your knee.

strict food quality standards - 100% fresh American beef
y'all can read more about that here In-N-Out Burger products

100% American family owned - no foreign interests or investors where quality suffers for profit gains. Everyone here knows exactly what that looks like in today's market.

like I said, not the absolute best but definitely excel or lead in a lot of ways.

and the bottom line - no red-blooded American in their right mind can honestly say in-n-out burgers are bad whether their favorite or not.

Well Said!
I buy my red meat from a private business, it's always consistent in texture, marbling, flavor, etc. What it tasted like 30 years ago it still taste the same today, and buying in bulk cut to my specs its actually a little cheaper than the Piggly Wiggly.

Welcome to the animal style club, I usually get the double or triple. Killer bee’s assessment is one I will agree with. Definitely consistent in quality and taste across all the locations I’ve been too in Vegas, Phoenix, Utah, and California. Not the best or even top 3 in my book but it is still a good burger especially when you order some of the hidden menu items.

Ha! I guess it’s not for everyone

I ate at 5 guys once. Got food poisoning. I get nauseous driving by that place still 15 years later.

May just be me . I do like Chick-fil-a though

[MySons68C20]

Wish we had a Chic here in Wenatchee.....never been to one but they look great on the commercials

I'm a junk food junkie. I guess because I grew up on it. My mother didn't cook and if she tried it was horrible. It just wasn't her thing. To me junk food just tastes like home. I love me a big ole Ribeye smothered in butter and a Lobster tail smothered in more butter right next to it but I'll take a greasy cheeseburger and fries just as well any day. It's all the same. It all comes out brown. One of my favorite burgers is one that you can get while you fill up your gas tank although I don't know what kind of meat is in them? Aardvark? I don't know. But I like em. You can dress them yourself with wilted, stale, and left out all day toppings too.That's a plus.

In N Out may or may not be the best but I wish that I still had one by me. I'd be going there right now.

i dunno,, im a whataburger guy, but then...we dont have an in n out yet here in albuquerque, but when i go to AZ ill stop at in n out...

[71CHEVYSHORTBED402]

I do like their double cheese burger and fries. Shakes are pretty good too.

Hmm, five guys. Well, I tried them once. It was recently after a long hard week. I really needed the weight, but didn't expect a 4 pound bag. I thought the fries were excellent. The burger was real tasty too, real nice ladies doing the work.

We never heard of In-N-Out back in the early '70s. We worked a few blocks from the original Tommy's on Rampart and Beverly in L.A. Somebody would go through the office taking orders around midnight and head off to Tommy's to wait in a long line which was crazy long on Fri. and Sat. nights. Well worth it though. There was a guy working there who was so fast, his hands were a blur. Was a sight to see for quite few years.

This is Lynsi Snyder, the Billionaire owner of In-N-Out. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Lynsi_Snyder Oh, she's married (4th time) so forgetaboutit. -BA

She is quite an active gal! Sounds like she is exceedingly smart in the business world too.

5 guys rocks best burger and the trick is order small fries and they will then throw in 25 lbs of more fries I usually will go in with my 2 wheeler so I can get the fries in my truck

The line for that is longer than the lines at In N Out!

I like Five Guys too. Just so expensive to eat there (everywhere these days).

I dont get the animal burger, looks like a regular patty with standard hamburger fixins, what am I missing? We dont have in and outs around here.

Found on the 'net:

What is an In-N-Out Burger animal style?

Grilled onions cooked down in the collected meat juices on the hot griddle can be added to any sandwich, and come standard if you ask for your burger or fries Animal Style. An Animal Style burger also includes extra Thousand Island spread, mustard grilled patties, and extra pickles.


Also this:

What is the difference between animal style and regular?
The most-popular items on the secret menu are the "animal-style" burgers and fries. Ask for your burger "animal-style" and you'll get a burger with mustard fried into each patty, plus pickles, chopped grilled onions and an extra helping of In-N-Out's famous sauce.

Don't make it to In-N-Out very often, but can't remember ever eating a meal that wasn't Animal Style because it's so good there is no need to switch.

My daughter works at the Keizer, OR location. She likes the job and they pay better than any other fast food place around.

They claim it's the busiest location of all. Still can get a 2+ hour wait if you time it wrong.

I'm not a fan of the food or the wait times so I rarely go. Her favorite is an animal style lettuce wrap ( no bun) and extra cheese.

I had 2 animal style 3x3’s over the weekend while in Utah. Was a nice cheat weekend as I’ve been watching my diet pretty close the last several months.
