Freddie's burgers are pretty good, but WTF is up with those fries? He'll, I want some REAL fries, not them itsy-bitsy wannabe fries.

Pretty sure they're real potatoes, which McD's aren't anymore. I remember when you could get a coke, fries, and a burger, and change for a dollar from McD's, once upon a time...Freddie's burgers are pretty good, but WTF is up with those fries?

Roberts is better than Sids IMO. And I know the owner. Nice guy.
yep closed on Mondays and maybe Tuesday also, not sure.
Call your friend up. I believe Roberts is open 7 days a week.
Maybe i'm thinking of Sids, I just remember going there on a Sunday or Monday (cant remember) and it was closed.
I dont have his phone number but he comes out every Sat. night to shoot pool at a club that has nice Diamond tables, and I usually get in on his table for a couple games.
I see.
I'm so old I recall when ALL the drive-ins had car hops, no drive thru. A mic and a speaker if it was a state of the art place. There was a great mom and pop joint that offered a "tomato burger" plastered with tomatoes and mayo or ketchup I can't remember. They also had a slaw burger plastered with slaw and I think mustard. Whenever I make beans and cornbread I always get a big container of KFC slaw, it reminds me of my mom's and whatever's left over I make slaw burgers with.
I was going to say I “did” 5 Guys once but the nuts were stale. Sounds a bit gay SO will say I ate at 5 Guys once and the food was average and the peanuts were stale. Just east of 5 Guys in Edmond is SB Burger Joint and it is awful. They use precooked patties and had poor service. The Garage on Bryant is “better” … hadn’t been to Flat Tire over by UCO in some time. I liked their fried pickles.
The pizza thread got me thinking about my very favorite "go-to" meal, the good ol' USA classic burger and fries.
I've ate lots of different places. Some chain restaurants and some small town, hole in the wall, geasy spoon diners, and I must say, I've never, ever had a "bad" burger. Some were much better than others, but I've never left one on my plate and walked out.
I'm not real picky. I mean, it's kinda hard to screw up a simple cheesburger, right? I guess the worst I ever had was a Carl's Jr. bacon ranch burger. Of course, I'm not a big fan of ranch dressing anyways.
To me, if I were gonna describe a perfect cheeseburger, it would be cooked medium rare on an open flame, served on a Kings Hawaiian sweet bun, topped with Miracle Whip, French's yellow mustard, with iceberg lettuce, fresh garden tomato, dill piclkes and lots of red onions. Pair that up with a big pile of steak fries or crispy onion rings and an ice cold Coke or IBC root beer and I'm in hog heaven!
Some of the best burgers I've had actually come from some very unsuspecting places such as Chilis and Cracker Barrel. Whataburger is good stuff too. Especially their patty melt, muy bueno! But for a plain and simple no frills burger, I like Braums.
Now I realize that some of you here are absolute burger snobs and would scoff at some of my picks, but that's ok too. You do you and I'll do me. But I'm always searching for an awesome cheeseburger. So please, tell me your pics and maybe someday, I'll check em out!
Can't talk about cheeseburgers without our dear and departed buddy, who left this world way too soon.
Burgers and fries and cherry pies life was good and simple back then.
