in n out in colorado

+1 for Drifters. Love that place. Better than In-n-Out.

Another place that I miss is Tommy's Burgers. I love that chili on a burger covered in cheese.

Of course in n out is "sub-par" when compared to a $10-14 burger from a sit down restaurant.. It's fast food and all of there stuff is fresh. McD's Wendy's etc don't hold a candle to In n Out. I lived in Cali for a year and sometimes I wouldn't mind getting 2 double doubles with fries if I'm in a hurry and want someone fresh and delicious.

Sucks that Red Top closed all of its locations down in the Springs. I loved that place. Drifters is also a frequent choice for me...for those that don't know Drifters was formally called Classics down on Flintridge and Academy. One day all of his employees looted his store and left him hanging. He had to close down and after a few years he was able to regroup and open Drifters. Great burgers!

That being said, In-N-Out is in a league of its own compared to fast food burgers for my family. You can taste the freshness in the fries and the burgers compared to any other chain around. My parents live in Dallas and whenever we visit we hit the In-N-Out pretty hard!

Yeah, I&O is better than Rotten Ronnie's burgers, but I just don't even place it any better than Culver's or Steak and Shake or Freddy's. I did stop at S&S for a triple steak burger and cheese fries yesterday on my way home from work. [Lick]

I don't ever find myself wanting a In-n-Out burger, but I sure would love to have a Whataburger.

I was waiting for that to pop up. Wife is from Texas and even though she has lived here 16 years I hear about it. [handbags] I do not see the big attraction of both and I have had them.

Back in the day, when MMMMel Tillis was the front man, it was good. Not so much now.

I grew up on Dairy Queen. Couldn't drag me into that place now.

I had Whattaburgers in Texas a few times, wasn't impressed. Too dry and basic to me, just a big flat cheeseburger with no taste.

Seems that people from Oklahoma have more experiences with burgers having grilled onions on them, which I absolutely love! I grew up eating cheeseburgers with grilled onions and will always order that if available. Even better is if the onions are sliced thin and mixed in the meat. Oh damnnnn.....

And, when you go to Tommy's, don't stand there asking a bunch of questions, just order a cheeseburger with or without onions, don't make them ask you. Step up and order and move on. It ain't no have it your way kind of place. I have seen the guys behind the counter just ignore someone that is ordering like in a restaurant or asking too many questions and take the order of the person next in line. Funny as heck to watch when it happens.

Hahaha yea it's fun to watch those guys get ignored.
