Best thick burgers around ?

THge Hangover burger at Katy Trail Ice House is hard to beat.
Damn!

Now I want to go to Angry Dog.

But I heard Deep Ellum is not safe, is it true?

Here's one recent news article from 2 days ago:

Sometimes you want a burger but it's in the middle of the late night and you don't want to leave the house to go to some place that's open 24 hours like Whataburger or a Walmart.

So you fall back on frozen burger patties that just takes a few minutes to prepare in a pan with some hot butter.

What brand are the best?

I've seen several brands at Walmart from Bubba's Burgers to Sam's Choice Angus Beef Patties to Walmart Brand Great Choice to some other national name brands.

Some I was able to find reviews that said good luck even finding any real beef in them and some had reviews that said they were marginally good.

I don't trust frozen foods. The only frozen food I buy is ice cream.

I don't ever buy frozen meats or frozen peeled shrimps or frozen dinners or frozen veggies or frozen desserts or even frozen pizzas.

But sometimes you crave a burger and you got to have a burger and frozen maybe your only choice and option.

I've never had a problem in Deep Ellum; but, about the only time I go at night is on Tuesday for half price dinner's at Maracas - Cocina Mexicana. Also, I'd walk the other way or into a restaurant if I saw a group like that gathering

--Back on to the thread; The 'Angry Dog' does make a good burger! Originally Posted by sjomann

As to the Angry Dog itself, there is parking either in front of by the side almost always available. They also have an excellent hotdog — the eponymous “Angry Dog” — and adequate chili (albeit with beans).

I hope this is good.

There are so many brands of frozen hamburger patties that are packaged in either a box or a long tube length plastic bag, I didn't know which one to get.

This was $7.98 for a box of 6 1/3 lbs patties and it's Walmart brand.

Yup, and their burgers are good. However they are thin like 50s drive in burgers. A double is like 1/4 lb of meat. They remind me of steak snd shake burgers.

I don't like steak and shake.
Being in Richardson, I got to mention Del's burgers (not open Sundays).
Get the root beer...

Yummy burger (open on Sundays) has a good burger too.

They also have BBQ

They are right near each other 2 on the same street.

312 feet apart according to GOOGLE MAP.

I may have to visit both places while I am down there in that area and get a hamburger at each place.

Never heard of these new places and one of them is not even a burgers joint, it's a Japanese restaurant :

There used to be a place on Greenville Avenue (South of University) in Dallas, next to Ozona, called Rose's... There was no sign, no parking and the entrance was hard to find (the first time there, I opened a door and walked through the kitchen...

Rose died several years ago and the place closed...

Rose's had some of the best burgers around - straight-up burgers & cheeseburgers on great buns... They were not thick burgers by any means, but they were amazing... She would spread a large, very thin layer of ground beef on the griddle and cook it quickly,,, When it was cooked, she would fold it over several times, create a thicker burger out of the very thin layers...

The end result was great...

I just ate at Kincaids a few hours ago.. It is a good burger. Very juicy and a generous meat portion. The vegetables were extra crisp.
The problem is I prefer a medium rare burger. honestly I did not ask, but they do not seem set up to offer a medium rare. The other knock is the fries are the crinkle fries.. not my favorite. It could use a bit more seasoning as well.. still a good burger overall...

If you like a medium-rare burger, try Snuffer's. I like the original on Greenville.
