@Jan

First, to mention In-N-Out and a Big Mac in the same sentence is just wrong on so many fronts.

“Worst hamburger in your life?” Sorry, not buying it. And the special sauce nasty? That sauce is amazing! I’m surprised that the person that created it hasn’t one a Nobel Peace Prize or something.

And to second Eric, yes one less person to hold me up from sinking my teeth in the best.burger.ever. Yummy

You have GOT to be kidding me! We just got one here in Fort Worth, Tx and I have seen the lines. I waited until they abated and finally went last night. It was the worst hamburger I have ever had in my life! I could eat only a couple of bites. Nasty ‘special sauce’ like the Big Mac. Meat was freshly cooked, but bland.
There are hundreds of private shops that make burgers a million times the taste.
I won’t be returning.

I could feel the enthusiasm, trust me!

Just read your battle post with Five Guys. Here in CA in my city, a Five Guys just opened a few months ago across from the In-N-Out down my block. At first, there was so much hype and people were saying Five Guys was going to take all of In-N-Out’s customers. I went and gave it a try the first week. Two thoughts: too expensive and nothing special.

I drove across my In-N-Out today on the way home from work and there was a ton of cars at In-N-Out. Not so much at Five Guys. Enough said.

Also – have you ever tried 5 Guys Burger? In-N-Out Burger reminded me a lot of 5 Guys Burger. They’re located in New York, Atlanta and probably a few other places. (NYC and Atlanta are the only two places I know for certain. Oh wait — scratch that, three places. I went there once in Montgomery, Alabama). They have the same concept: “real” food, a simple menu. And they’re delicious.

It’s funny you ask that, because you need to check out my follow up post that puts the two heavyweights together: Five Guys Vs. In-N-Out: Who Has the Best Burger?

Let me know what you think about my decision.

Jeff, this post is hilarious!

Californians/California get a lot of flack on PF blogs about horrible government, taxation, and other things (deservedly so in most cases…)

But every time I just close my eyes and thank the stars I live 5 minutes away from an In-N-Out. Now excuse me while I make a late night run….again!

I just ate my very first In-N-Out Burger literally less than two weeks ago! I was raised in Ohio, went to college in Colorado, now live in Atlanta. Needless to say, I’ve never lived by an In-N-Out Burger, and yet my friends would talk about it all the time (living in Colorado, you meet a lot of people who have lived in Nevada/Arizona/Utah). So when I went to California a few weeks ago, I declared that I HAD to try it.

I loved the burger, though I wasn’t such a fan of the fries. They were a little … off, somehow. Not fry-ish.

I’ll try animal style next time. I had no idea about the secret menu.

Colorado has a place called Good Times, which is the closest approximation to In-N-Out or 5 Guys that it can muster, but it doesn’t compare.
