Fast Food Chains That Use The Highest Quality Beef In Their Burgers 

Who do you think makes the best burger?

I will always have a place in my heart for Dave Thomas

2:52 Though, not directly. Shake Shack actually sources much of its meat from Pat La Frieda Meat Purveyors in NYC, the exact same butcher shop that supplies luxury steakhouses like the Press Club Grill and Peter Luger.

Culver’s Hands down! And the fountain root beer is amazing,brings you back to life after being out in the scorching heat

In Oregon and sw Washington we have a place called Burgerville. Everything is sourced local. All meat, milk, bread etc. Delicious

Interesting that Five Guys didn't make the list....

One thing I can say about Wisconsin burger places u will get quality beef. Solly’s Grille, Sobelman’s, Kopps and many other places in the Milwaukee area.

I had Wendy's yesterday. It was so good and the bacon really looks and tastes like bacon.

Thirty years ago I had a friend who had worked as a cattle buyer said that White castle consistently bought the best quality cattle at every sale that he was at.

The hamburgers look beautiful, in this video. They don't look like this in the restaurants. TO ME WENDY'S HAS THE BEST BURGER.

My home made open faced burger sitting on a thick slice hearty grilled Texas toast with home made mashed potatoes covered in gravy beats any restaurants burger any day .

The only chain from this video that I've ever seen is Wendy's. Grotesquely overpriced, the stupidest employees of any fast food chain, filthy bathrooms, bad atmosphere. The only good thing they make is chili. I would never ever go there without a coupon, and the odds are that their moronic employee wouldn't get my order right even with a coupon.

Just had a Wendy's burger today. It was great!

After this video, showing that Burger Fi does not use antibiotic beef, I will try them today. They have been here for a few years, thanks.

~ This is total crap when it comes to Wendy's! I would say this is true for their original patties but not their new processed ones. They changed their patties about four years ago here in Canada. I used to love their burgers and they were my favorite fast food outlet but shortly after Dave passed on, the corporate suits started to make changes. First it was their fries, then their buns which made me feel a bit nauseous. Then for a short time, they started using "pretzel buns." I only had one of those and after smelling it, I almost threw up! It smelled like a wet dog's ass. Next, they changed their beef paties and everytime I've eaten one of their burgers with the new patties(only three times now), I literally have gotten sick afterwards. 🤮 I tried contacting them three times to ask what is in their meat patties now that could be making me sick but they refuse to answer me. 🇨🇦

I live in New Mexico and have only heard of one of these chains, Wendy's. Fortunately we have a few local burger chains/restaurants with great burgers; Blakes, Laguna Burger, and Burger Boy.

Wendy's has always been a great, fresh burger for a fast food place. BTW, I miss their super saladbar....it was a great value!

As a wisconsinites myself Culver's has the best burger on the list. 🍔

I live in a metro area of over 500k and we only have 2 of the 11 chains in our area. I've been fortunate to eat at a few others in my travels but 5 of these are brand new to me. I'm just wondering how these particular 11 were selected?

The only place I have heard of or is around me is Wendy’s and believe me they are not the way they used to be-not by a long shot. I’m old enough to remember when Wendy’s first came out and they were delicious. Not now. Plus, they really have gone up in price the past couple years.

Wendy's, In N Out and The Habit are the closest to me. Shake Shack is there but it's a 40 minute drive to the closest one lol

Don’t understand why people like In & Out so much. To me it tastes exactly like Steak & Shake but there are much better chain burgers. Love Culver’s and Whataburger is a close second.

Thanks!

Thank you for the video. Blessings to you.

Wendy's and The Habit Grill are the only two in my town and surrounding towns within a five hour drive. Guess two is better than none if and when in the mood for a junk highly processed burger.Good to know.

I just saw an article about the 10 worst meats in the restaurant industry. This video answers my question about the best

I’ve had all of these. Shake shack is the best quality in my opinion.

I live in the southern Adirondacks: the only chain you mention, that I know, is Wendy's. The other problem is, your documenyary needs clear breaks between the chains reviewed, instead of running-on without a pause, so we don't even know right away that you are talking about another chain.

Until more confirmation comes regarding distribuitors of ground beef, I no longer eat out - period. Only one that I have seen and read about has somewhat substantial sipporting evidence of reasons to be more thsn concerned. It is not on this list. There are several others with less supporting evidence to be concerned by, though nothing more than word-of-mouth unlike the first. They also are not on this list. There may be very good reasons that they are not on this list. Upon learning of these very major concerns several years back, I stopped eating out completely. I once picked up breakfast at one of these places on the regular. If ever these concerns are completely substantiated and confirmed publicly, I honestly don't know how many of us are going to live with ourselves. Obviously, if true, it wouldnt be the fault of the majority but just the notion or idea in mind that we could have unknowingly been subjected to participation is sufficient to make anyone cringe in horror. And don't forget thst it isn't just ground beef. HEK-293 is used in many of our food products ostensibly for "flavor enhancement". If you research, be sure to read beyond the lying, narrative-controlling, "fact checkers" who will obviously say this is not true. It is in fact true and can easily be confirmed. The story about what is done to our food is a deep and dark rabbit hole. The only way to ensure that what you consume is safe is to research and learn of all the good and bads. This puts every one of us in a very precarious position in many ways. That you can believe.

Wendys is super underrated, they are way better than any comparable fast food burger

The Big Mac looks smaller than I remember it was . I don’t eat at McDonald’s very often . I never get the meal just the sandwich

The only 2 places that I have seen near me are Wendy's & Culvers. I used to eat at Wendy's but the store near me closed 3 years ago. I haven't eaten at Culvers yet. I just watched a guy review a Mooyah burger & he said it was the worst burger he had ever tasted. He didn't even finish his first bite, he spit it out & threw it away.

1. Culver's 2. Shake Skack 3. In-N-Out

Whatabuirger, if they continued the practice under the new owners, run their own cattle feed lots so the beef is controlled from hoof to burger.

A meal at Five Guys is almost $20 but they didn't make the list??? 🚩🚩🚩

I am drooling for a delicious burger 😊

Wendy's burgers are really good! I also love Culvers!

I’d like to see you find out which kind of oil is used at fat food joints for frying?

Burger Fi!!! Please build in my city.

No I didn’t expect they would😊

Don't have 1/2 these places near us, and we live in a densely populated east coast area

Love me a Culver's burger. We have one here in Florida 😊

Sonic.... Thats my fav

They should have added the price of these burgers 🤣🤣

The Habit is the only one that tops In-N-Out for me. The fries are better, too!

I frequently eat breakfast at Mc Donald's, but NEVER eat anything else there. I also like Wendy's breakfast baconator. Most calories come from fat, not carbs.

The Habit is easily the best fast food burger joint. I'm in Santa Clara, CA and have easy access to The Habit, Five Guys, In-n-Out, Wendy's, Burger King and McDonalds. The Habit is the best of the group. Five Guys and In-n-Out are second place with the others being a distant third place.

Half I have never heard of! We have a Wendy’s near us but rarely go to it. Not that we have one, but how does Wahlberger’s stack up? Their grocery store version is pretty good. I haven’t seen them in our stores lately though. My husband has done a good job grilling them at home. The times we were able to find them in the store anyway.

I knew there was a reason i love everything Wendy's!! They have real fries too!! Unlike the deep fried cardboard froM a competitor 😅

In and out id always freshly delivered.

The Moooyah burger I had a few years ago was delicious, I admit.

Love ❤fast food 🧀🍔🍟

However if fed corn its doubtful its gmo free!🤔😉

I noticed 5 Guys was not one of the burger restaurants you listed. Interesting.

Man I miss the Smash burger we had in our area. The pandemic took it out. Was one of my favorite places

The meat is bought from feed lots, it's every type of cow/steer/bull that is sent to the auction. There is no such thing as 100% Angus beef! Thats all a marketing brand. Angus beef is actually the worst beef when compared to Charolais, Herford or Limousin. When you buy "Angus" beef at the grocery store, you are just buying beef from the feed lot.

The regional fast food chain "Dairy Cheer" marketed itself as "Home of the Smashburger" all the way back in the 1970s, years before the fast food chain "Smashburger" ever existed. Is this a copyright infringement?

non mentioned are in my area

There's only Culver's in my area

I love Culver’s

Mooyah burgers are amazing the best I've had in Massachusetts. Wendys is the worst

Burger places need to butter their buns and slap them on the grill for a few seconds. It elevates the flavor of the burger.

Only buy the best burger . Free from any pesticides. Happy i watched this video as very careful what take aways i eat 😊 you are lucky in America 🇺🇸 with delicious burger bars 😊

I am appalled at how small Wendy’s burgers are!!! They look like small hamburgers!! Nothing like in the past!!

Whattaburger! And burger republic for sure

I couldn't watch the whole video because of your music background. What is that kind of 'music' called?

Five Guys is a great burger and the fries are yummy.

I'm sorry, Wendy's is a lie. Their beef doesn't even TASTE high quality. I also used to drive an 18 wheeler with a reefer trailer and delivered to Wendy's distribution centers and when I delivered, it was hard as a rock frozen. So I know from personal first hand experience that Wendy's beef is frozen before and at the time of delivery to their district centers .

Is this video based off the report from these companies, or was actual investigations done to ensure proof? I quite eating Wendy’s because I could actually see the soy beans with the beef. No Five Guys?🤔

Burgerfi can’t be pasture grass fed beef if there’s corn feed in there…

The cattle in the BurgerFi section are NOT Angus.

What about Freddy's frozen custard and steak burgers? They're really good! 😋👍

What if this is just a clever advertisement?

Red Robins😊

I like Wendys, but they changed their fries long, long ago, then changed to their soda machines that always suck, so now don't go nowhere near as much... and liked those new ghost fries (sauce), but now they got rid of that, too, their regular fries taste like dirt.

I have been to a lot of burger joints over the years...but there are only two I consider eating here in Canada....1 is A&W burgers....always a great burger....and the West Coast based White Spot burgers...every ohter burger pretty much sucks......from too dry to too greasy.

Chains. Shouldn’t be a regional joint. Not sure how many people drive or fly 1800 miles for a burger.

Never heard of most of these chains

What about WhataBurger ????

Culvers butter burger 🍔

Wendy’s , you never get the repeat best burger ,way down on our list.

In and Out Burger. Ester does not hand make the hamburger patties.

Look folks - the quality of mass-produced ground beef has gone WAY WAY down in the last 20 years. Unless a place pays way more for the really good, grass-fed prime it is not going to be good. Modern beef is grown so so fast that it is tasteless, rubbery (tough) and stringy. Or haven't you noticed? I am a beef lover, and it has been super, super hard to find good beef now - at any price. Find a local supplier if you can. I'm lucky I live in S Texas where there are small cattle ranchers I can buy from. It is not cheap though.

Fat burger, and Freddy's didn't make this list?! Fat burger is the King of burgers, and you can taste it! ❤

Where’s A&W?

The BEST!?? Hardee's/Carl's Jr

gotta say...so far as fast food burgers : 1) read the book Fast Food Nation or 2) see the b@stardization of that book with the movie of the same name.... whom can you trust in the fast food business for "quality"?

Burger King/ Wendy’s have the best beef. Me too

Smashburger??? Are you real?? Absolutely the WORST burgers I've ever had. And I'm 70! Tried them 3 different times thinking it was just taste buds being off - nope. Grilled cardboard with condiments describes it best. Threw them in the trash, couldn't finish. And I wasn't the only one!

I go to a local place for my burger, much better, costs less and my money stays in my community, not in a corporate account overseas.

No McDonald's, Burger King, or White Castle on this list. Not surprising.

Love five guy

7:34 “Halal”?

I have no idea why 5 Guys isn't on this list. I've had Culvers, Wendy's Burger Fi, and In-N-Out and none of them are better than 5 Guys!

You put Wendy's on the list but not Five Guy's??

No Five Guys or Red Robin????

Culvers is dank

Why does In N Out still taste like most common fast food burgers? It's not like a Mooya or any fast casual. It's way too plain and ordinary tasting.

5 guys did not make the list in my opinion. Because they have something not good in the beef. And they did not want to put that out and then end up with the lawsuit. So they only put hamburger joints that we're all good.

Noooooooooooo..... McDonald's not on the list....nooooo
