I recall having a hard time getting the ribbons they wanted. But, the me at 16 was also anti-authority and my supervisor was an ass so there may well have been some of the latter (we ended up at the same company 15 years later and I ate his lunch performance-wise).

Mine was Dairy Queen. I did enjoy a nice DQ double cheese burger with the chili topping normally put on hotdogs. Mmmm. I want one right now.

Surprised it took this long to get a vote for Ted’s cheeseburger grinder (or are you talking about the place in Meriden?). Honestly, don’t remember ever eating one sober but, as I recall, they were great.

I was referring to Ted’s Steam Cheeseburger in Meriden (I’m a Middletown kid). Are you referring to Ted’s Montana grill? I’ve heard they have good burgers too.

Two best cheeseburgers in Central CT area are Red Fox and Celtic Carven (especially if you like with bacon).

I live 2 mins from Red Fox and never tried it. I always get their Chicken Parm at lunch with peppers. I’ll give the burger a shot next time.

Yeah, they have a really outstanding cheeseburger with bacon.

Seasoning is more important if you're cooking on a flat top or in a pan to get some crusting and hold in the flavor. I use very little salt and pepper if it's going on the grill.

Lately I've used salt, pepper, onion powder and chili powder for burgers on a cast iron grill. Have to say it's pretty good.
 
Ever been to Riley’s in New Britain? Hearing good things.
 
Bumping this to deliver word of a new abomination from Heinz that I imagine some of you will be all over while the rest of us suppress our gag reflex...

Kranch.

Bacon McDoubler no onions. Yum. I usually hate Mcky d food but this is good. They use to charge $2.00 but after awile it went up to $4. That’s when I stopped buying.

No disrespect because I respect you but those little onions are one of the best parts

Sounds good but hold the mushrooms, I hate mushrooms.
Many years ago my dad used to take my sister and me to the Owl Restaurant on West Ave in Norwalk. Had a burger on toasted buttered white bread! So good.
It was aChinese restaurant. Anyone here remember it?
 
Fries:
shoestring...

steak and shake are the best.

I have not found a restaurant or bar in CT with better fries when looking for thin fries

Rooster’s in Newington are good.
their chicken cutlet no pickles add bacon with mentioned fries is the ultimate. Burger from them is second place

Places with a good thin fry in no order
Bill’s Diner @ MGM Springfield
Plan B
Wood n Tap are OK
The bar fries @ Chelsea Piers rink in Stamford
I think MAX burger were good( its been awhile)

Any other places with really good thin fry?
