5 Guys in Starkville.....

[drail14me]

I keep hearing this rumor. Location? Any validity to the rumor?

Guess it's that time of the year for that rumor to start. Been hearing it for 3 years.

[DamnGoodDawg]

5 Guys is 17'ing awesome. Their double with Cajun fries is the tits

While we're on the subject, can we end the idea that In And Out burger is any good? Very overrated.

For those who don't have Sonic.

I agree. It's almost like if you grew up on the west coast and moved east you gotta come tell everybody how awesome it is. Very much overrated

 

[Maroonthirteen]

I was told to try in and out when I was in LA. I did. I Thought it was a polished up McDonalds.

 

[KurtRambis4]

Speaking of overrated

5 Guys. I can practically play the same amount and get a burger 10x better at burgers and blues.

 

[121Josey]

But have you seen the menu?**

 

[121Josey]

I fixed it for you.

I was told to try in and out when I was in LA. I did. I Thought it was a polished up turd Checkers.

Unfortunately

You shut your dirty ***** mouth!! In And Out is 17ing the BOMB!! You must not be ordering correctly. If you didn't get the double cheese loaded with Cajun fries and a milkshake you haven't eaten In And Out!

I doubt Starkville meets the basic criteria that 5 Guys puts on new markets. They don't just let you put a 5 Guys wherever you want even if you have plenty of money to pay the $500,000 upfront fee.

 

[Bulldogg31]

5 Guys burgers are just ok, but their fries are ridiculous, and you get about 6 lbs of them.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

It's not overrated if you like paying $20+ for you and someone to go eat an exordinarily greasy burger. I'd much rather get a peanut butter or comeback burger from mugshots.

At least 2 of those 5 pounds is grease.

 

[Bulldogg31]

At least 2 of those 5 pounds is grease.

I only said they were good...not good FOR you...

At Christy's you get 6.5 lbs. of fries***

When I want one, just go to sonic/checkers/whataburger. They all taste similar.

I remember being taken to my first in and out years ago. My collegue was so excited. My reaction "yall arent use to good burgers out here".

That said, Hodads is absolutely a top 5 burger on the planet.

 

[MabenMaroon]

I only said they were good...not good FOR you...

Ahhh! The best were back in the day ( 40+ years ago ) when McDonalds cooked their fries in lard. I mean the kind of lard that they had to turn on the french fry cooker for about 45 minutes to get it to liquify before they could drop the fries in. Those were the best fries.

I looked in to Five Fuys franchise about 8-10 years ago just to see what it would take to get in on it. Way too much for the Avg Joe. If I remember correctly when you get the franchise, there is a 5 store requirement. Well I don't think the Amerigo guys have opened their 5 stores yet. Dogwood and Renaissance are the only 2 I know of. Are there any more in MS? I'd think Hattiesburg Oxford and Starkville would be the next likely 3 places

 

[Palos verdes]

Arguing about who has the best burgers is like arguing about NY pizza vs Chicago style pizza. It's always pretty split down the middle.

 

[FreeDawg]

There is one in Gulfport.

While I'm on the subject, it always amuses me when I see public voting on best burger. 5 guys uses fresh chuck and fresh cut fries. Nothing is frozen. It's a high quality product. If you read the best of lists you'll see multiple places that use frozen beef, fries, and basically every other thing out of a can, jar, or freezer. 5 guys isnt my favorite burger out there but I can appreciate their commitment as a company to not serving pre-prepared bs that the general public usually can't tell the difference.

Gulfport diberville and Hattiesburg aall have one.

 

[ronpolk]

But Chicago has the best pizza.

So this must be the modern-day equivalent of the "Starkville's getting an Olive Garden/Red Lobster!" rumor that was around when I was in school.
