Long story.

I was at the Kia Dealership picking up our car with my wife. Before we left, I asked the Service guy, "Where can I get a good burger close by?". He said "Chapps", and another guy said "Kincades".

So I opted for Chapps, but the one that the guy referenced was back up in Grand Prairie and I hate GP.

So I told my wife, "Follow me to Chapps.", figuring to head back to Carrier and I-20.

The wife started out 2 cars behind me, then 4 cars back, then 6 cars back, until I lost sight of her all together. I turned off on the Carrier exit, and saw her still on the freeway headed East to parts unknown.

I just went home and ate leftovers.

Little bit of a drive but the Oso Grill in Capatin NM has the best burger I have ever eaten. Top burger on the menu. Yeah I know it is not in Texas but if you are out that way you need to try it.

I used to stop in Denton on the way to Vernon and meet a friend at hooter since they were close to 35 and had lots of space for a trailer..

I still think they make an excellent burger.

Don't forget Stackhouse in deep ellum.

If you don’t mind an upscale atmosphere and paying $25 for a burger, B&B Butchers in Ft Worth has a burger that will knock you out. It comes with huge potato wedge fries and are killer too. I have loved burgers for 70+ years and never had one as thick and juicy. I recommend no veggies so all you taste is meat and cheese.

Nic’s is a special place, ate there every week I went OKC during a waterproofing project at the Museum of Art.
Last week I had a really good burger and onion rings at a Valero Gas Station on 455 in Sanger,

Had the “Storm Special” in Lampasas a few weeks back. 2 or 3 paddies I cant remember with handcut fries and a large cherry limeade. $12 bucks. Used to stop at the Storms in Hamilton when I was commuting to the metromess. It was Spring Break when I stopped in Lampasas (Hwy 281 and 183) and I got the last drive up spot! They pack em in!

I've paid $30 for a hamburger. Las Vegas.

Can't member his name but he's a famous chef. All the taxi cars had his advertisement.

Gotta be good, right?

Hamburger was $30. The fries were $8 and the glass of tea was $6(?).


It was the nastiest burger I have ever had. So bad, I swore if I ever got a chance to meet the chef in person. I'd punch him. Should've name it the Pissed Off burger. Cause all it did was make you mad.

Never had Chapps so no comment I agree with BigBob regarding Kincades and in my opinion there is only one Kincades.
If you are willing to drive a little to the west, try the Malt Shop. IF you want sprouts, bean curds or some other california topping on your burger, then don't bother. If the opportunity presents itself, try the burger while the parker county peach festival is going and get a peach shake or malt. Aint none better in the country, if you like peaches
