sounds like they are using doctored meat

I will try one next time I am in NYC and I will hand down my pronouncement upon the shake shack

this is where the shake shack meat comes from http://lafrieda.com

the meat's good for sure, the accompaniments are half-assed imo

times magazine piece abt shake shack / danny meyer http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/07/magazine/danny-meyer-is-on-a-roll.html?pagewanted=all

no wai the bun is tits xp

I think I just prefer a firm bun? ya ya no pun intended. anyway I don't think it's bad just not transcendent. prob better than 5 guys but I go to 5 guys more cause I like eating peanuts while I wait.

no bun intended

iatee how does shake shack compare to in-n-out

omg 5guys isnt in the same league as shake shack, in n out is great but its sort of a diff thing, more of an irl really good fast food burger

I agree 5 guys isn't the same league it does have peanuts and they are in the area I am when I am hungry, more often

in-n-out is better on every level, also way cheaper.

in n out is awesome and cheap but lacks the haut rigor of shake shack

yeah it's like low high-culture vs. high low-culture

shake shack burgers are tasty but they are so greasy that they make me feel a little ill and they are not quite delicious enough to merit that.

most other burgers make me feel ill due to their size/amount of meat. shake shack doesn't do that. five guys is so unremarkable.

5guys is good but kinda gross

ya that's why you have to prep your stomach w/ a layer of peanuts

for the burger that's fried in peanut oil and the fries which are fried in peanut oil

yo bro heard you liked peanuts

shake shack rules, by far the best burger in the city

This is ridiculous unless you regard a burger only as something you get at a fast food chain (or, as you indicate, you don't really like meat). It's very good as far as that goes, and certainly better than In 'n Out, which I guess might beat it on fries, as Shake Shack's aren't that great, but even those too are pretty boring there. Yes, In 'n Out beats Five Guys on most scores.

Shake Shack also has good dogs. Not quite Hot Doug's, perhaps, but more convenient.

Oh, and the alcohol offerings.

most other burgers make me feel ill due to their size/amount of meat.

i find the opposite to be true - the shake shack burger is just not filling, but the double is gross feeling in the stomach. the ideal nyc burger for me will always be paul's.

fast food style burger is best, fuck a lol hueg chunk patty, get w/the burger zeitgeist

C.K. Dexter Holland, what is the most you would pay for a really good burger

What does it come with? I'm going to say $16, maybe 18 if it's really special.

Solution - the shack stack, or a burger and a dog (which is a little much). I never eat the fries.

pretty satisfied to have my burger opinions called ridiculous by someone thinking about a really special $18 burger.

dont feel like ive had that many sliders, theres some place in the east 20s that I heard abt

I don't 'get' sliders

like how many are you expected to eat

only burger he'll touch

In fact, it contains at least one ingredient I won't touch.

3 xp

thick patties you gotta unhinge your jaw to eat, man, that's not good

smh @ all of u

you throw in some toppings, maybe a thick slice of tomato, you gotta be some kind of deep sea jaw fish to eat it

And anyone paying attention knows I'm on the other side of the aisle from molecular gastronomy.

In fact, it contains at least one ingredient I won't touch.

is the burger made w/ love?

That's not generally how the foie gras production process would be described.

i think the prime meats burger is $18 or so, i've never tried one, but thought about buying a pre-made patty from their store for $6 the other day.

if i'm going to pay $18 for an entree it is not going to be a burger - though i've paid ~$12 for the burger at henry public which was worth it.

the birds have to be treated inhumanely, strapped down and force-fed huge amounts of food.

is this really that much different than how cows, chickens, and pigs are treated in factory farms

that's what generates heat in the cultural capital of America these days, burgers.

i find this burger's tempo inadequate and its melody uninteresting fuiud

I elected this burger for lunch and it's not as good as everybody said it was. In fact, it's worse than those burgers everybody here hates!
