What's a burger thread without pictures?
I'll eat at just about any burger joint given the opportunity. From major chains to the local Mom-and-Pop. I've eaten from all of the places listed below and many more.
I already voted In-N-Out as my favorite as I based it solely on the burger quality and value. Not their fries (which I actually don't like), not the shakes, just the burger.

Tried 5 Guys when they built one in our area. Good, but pricey.

Didn't care for Shake Shack. Burger was unimpressive and the bun was greasy.

Freddys was decent but the burger was unremarkable. The frozen custards are the draw here.

Whataburger - when I was recently in TX I had to try them as they are EVERYWHERE (see Houston area below). Good burger for what it is.

White Castle - actually ate AT a WC location many years ago, not the frozen ones, and personally didn't care for them

Smashburger - too salty

Umami (local chain) - pricey, but a good gourmet burger

Fatburger - a solid contender

Habit - easily right behind, if not even with, In-N-Out for me

Hopdoddy - just had a Buffalo Bill from there recently and was blown away at how good it was. Seem to be more of them in TX

Carls Jr - worked there in my youth and still think the Famous/Super Star is one of the best American-style burgers

McD - hey, I still like getting a Big Mac or double/triple cheeseburger every now and then

Jack in The Box - burgers are passable, Ultimate Cheeseburger is my fave there
