Who doesn’t love burgers? The soft yet crusty buns, the thick, juicy patties, the oozing, molten cheeseburgers are truly one of the greatest gifts mankind has ever received. If you live in America, you have quite a few great burger options around you. Besides the usual fast-food chains, there’s a lot of delicious burger joints spread throughout the US, and we’ve listed some of the best ones for you.

Chris Madrid’s – San Antonio, Texas

This is another burger joint that runs on tradition, and artfully so. This family-owned restaurant was founded by Chris Madrid, then a fresh college graduate, in 1977, and is now run by his family after his passing in 2012.

You have a lot of choice in Chris Madrid’s in terms of food – you can stick to the safe, popular pick of the oozing Cheddar Cheezy, or indulge in their specialty – the Tostada Burger made with homemade refried beans, chips, and onions, or go for something else as well.

Fred’s Meat & Bread – Atlanta, Georgia

The name is kind of an understatement – Fred’s Meat & Bread offers way more than just…well, “meat and bread.” This small eatery in Krog Street Market, Atlanta claims to make sandwiches, but in reality, they are mostly burgers.
