Good luck with that, Bill. All the Culvers I've been to in the midwest have been pretty greasy.

For my money, Whataburger is the best. Followed by In-N-Out and Steak 'n Shake.

No Steak 'n Shakes in AZ yet though. Closest one is in Lost Wages, which is a tad further than I'll drive for a decent burger.

Maybe if it's new it could be better.

I forgot Nation's Giant Hamburgers. They'd actually be second behind Whataburger, but they're only in the SF Bay Area (I'd rather go to Vegas)...


Joe, hamburger connoisseur (OK, wannabe connoisseur).

For us foreigners, nothing bets an In-N-Out...wish there was at least one in New Mexico...

Greasy burgers are the greatest!! I like Lindy's on 4th for a good burger.. In N Out is ok but I don't like their "special sauce" and you have to atleast get a double double. They do have some tastey fries though..

I posted up some pics of my progress on my project so far..
