Tookies in Seabrook was always my favorite but Ike then DOT closed them for good, thanks for all the great ideas, my calendar is full now. Bellaire Broiler Burger is worth a visit as well.

I’m trying to find the entry on his blog, but Michael Berry had a best burger in Houston contest on his radio show on 740 KTRH a couple months back.

In his blog post, it listed all the nominations and listeners voted.

Little Bitty Burger Barn won, but there was an impressive list to be had. I think anyone would die of a massive coronary blockage before they could finish all the good places in the course of a year. Props should go to the local restaurants in the region that give us all a chance to call one our favorite!

I agree about Christian’s Totem/Tailgate!! I’d also add the Hub Cap Grill on Prairie in Downtown. Very small place, but totally worth it!

Try the swiss mushroom burger (even if that’s not usually your thing) at Christian’s Tailgate and the buffalo burger at Pete’s Fine Meats. You won’t be disappointed!

I haven’t tried the fried egg thing at smashburger, but I have tried it at a burger joint somewhere in the midwest. It does add a nice touch to a burger!

If you are trying Smashburger, I recommend that you consider the fried egg topping. It really puts the burger over the top.

Smashburger…there’s just something about them I can’t put my finger on. But hands down, the best restaurant/fast food burger I’ve had. Especially the 1/2 lb. mushroom swiss.

For it’s time, Beck’s was fabulous.

I don’t care for Beck’s burgers, but it’s hard to beat their milkshakes and their patio on a nice day, especially at the Augusta or Dairy Ashford locations. :)

In other news, yay for more Smashburgers! (Although I still prefer Five Guys for all my chain burger expansion needs.)

My vote goes to Miller’s. I’ve only been to the Garden Oaks location at N. Shepherd and 34th, but there are a couple others around town. The sloppy chili cheeseburger is my favorite. There’s usually a long line at lunch during the week, but it’s worth the wait in my opinion. My only complaint is that they close early on Saturdays and they’re closed on Sundays.

Smashburger at least tries to be a little different. Their rosemary fries are great. Their vegetable frites, while not out-of-this-world, at least offer an alternative side to fries and rings.
