In-N-Out Burger - Double Double

This is not meant to turn into a best burger list, nor will it, but I can’t in good conscience leave the perfection of the Double Double off a list of great things that exist between two pieces of bread. What makes the In N Out burger so special?

Beyond their “Never Frozen” policy ensuring fresh beef and potatoes, beyond the way they grill the bun to just the right level of crunch, beyond their consistently delivering an excellent product regardless of which branch you walk into, it is this: The product you see advertised in ANY fast food ad – a dripping, juicy burger with fresh lettuce and tomato - is actually what you get at In-N-Out. In too many fast food ads, what they show looks nothing like the helpless, wilted, brownish slab that’s slid across the counter to you like a battered hockey puck. Not so at In-N-Out. Consistently great. I don’t, by the way, advocate “Animal Style,” which comes with a sauce, since to me that diminishes the crunch of the bun (my editor vehemently disagrees). But if you want it that way, go for it.
