The Best Chesseburger in the United States of America

[gutshotdraw]

Bacon Cheeseburger at Toby Keith's in Mesa, AZ. Hamburger Habit in SBA is pretty good. In-n-out? Meh... Jalapeno/Cheddar or Bleu-Cheese burgers from the local upscale store, grilled at home over charcoal--not propane.

Best from a defunct establishment: The Chili Size (open faced chili cheeseburger with onions) at the Scenic Air Terminal in LAS. DAY-UUUM!

Default: ANY cheeseburger you have when you return from a multi-week trip to somewhere they don't have cheeseburgers.

Good stuff.

Oh. And In-n-Out blows...

Last few visits to In-n-Out were for a t-shirt.

Burgers in New Orleans

For years, the best was at "Port O' Call" (Esplanade Ave), but Chef John Besh's "Restaurant Luke" (St. Charles Ave) is now the leader, IMHO.

Well, I have had many great hamburgers. I love In-n-Out, Five Guys.....but still my favorite is the double b.b.q. bacon cheeseburger at Cheesecake Factory.

The Juicy Blucy burger from The Blue Door Pub in St. Paul, MN.

Angus burger stuffed with blue cheese and garlic. The one stuffed with jalapenos and pepperjack is good too. And unlike crappy fast food places, they have a wide selection of bottle and tap beer (lots of local brews).

Gutshot--Not a "ditch dog" but I've never met one I didn't like. Just flew with a OZ/TWA/AA guy who flew the 402's for Scenic. Great guy.

I flew for StatesWest in '87 and we used the Scenic terminal. Good times--back when the Shorts was the biggest airplane you could take into Bullhead City and Havasu.

Best Burger and DEFINATELY the best ICECREAM!

A bit out in the middle of nowhere (but quite a scenic view both on the ground and from the air).....

Polar Scoops in Oneonta, NY (Identifier: N66, not far from Cooperstown)

The owner makes his burgers with 100% organic USDA PRIME beef. This is the top 1% of all beef in America. The restaurant is about 5 min ride down the hill from the airport. He has a whole host of different combinations of toppings/cheeses etc.

His iceream is even better! Puts Ben and Jerry's to shame!

Tell the owner Bart and Scott told ya about the place on this board!

Rudy "The Shoe" refugee eh? What a scumbag that guy was. Knew a few guys over there.

I just saw two 402's flying for Cape Air that still have the same tail number as when I flew them in the Ditch NINETEEN years ago. Yikes.

But you're right about the chili-size. Didn't want to do a South Rim turn after one though. Especially in August.

Las

Bison Burger at Table 34 in Las Vegas. Warm Springs Road 5 minutes from McCarran. Huge slab of tasty Buffalo on Brioche with all the fixins.[/QUOTE]


Do that for lunch, then for supper, (or dessert) from Table 34, go south on Bremuda to the next major street, Windmill, and grab a burger at "Bachi Burger". (From Signature or Atlantic, south on Las Vegas Blvd, left on Warm Springs for Table 34 or left on Windmill for Bachi Burger--about 5-10 min drive)

I'm back in the AF, going on my first cross country tomorrow in the T-38, plan on checking up on the "Tinker Burger" for lunch.

Someone mentioned "Port Of Call" in New Orleans, which is excellent but "Swamp Room" on Veterans, a few miles east of MSY, is the best in the US hands down... grilled onions, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 1/2 pound very rare and juicy burger... call the FBO and have them pick you up one on your next quick turn.

The Gin Mill - KDED
Deland, FL

Swiss Burger on a Kaiser Roll.

Being the cheeseburger connoisseur that I am, with the gut to prove it (ask my wife), the Gin Mill has by far the best.

Please disregard my last transmission.

The Gin Mill has been slaughtered by Colonel Mustards in Atlantic Beach, FL. Holy mother this place is amazing! The Yo Baby Burger is the shizzle! - Fresh coleslaw, 1000 Island, and cheese piled on a 1.5" thick chunk of ground sirloin.

I have eaten cheeseburgers all over the country and this place destroys them all.

Matt's Burgers in downtown Summerville, SC. 10 miles from CHS airport.

in-n-out burger

-double double with grilled onions, heavy tomato.

-double cheese burger with heavy lettuce and heavy tomato, grilled onions.

If you can substitute caviar for cheese, you are eating at "snob-burger"!

A royal with cheese!!!

+1.........
