Dry as usual. I always have to ask for extra BBQ and my son forgot. Back in the day (20 years ago) Carl's Jr had an ad campaign, "If it doesn't get all over the place, it doesn't belong in your face!" Obviously they no longer mean that.
That does lead to an amusing story though. I was living in Flagstaff. I-40 is a big drug run highway with the drugs coming out of LA and headed into the interior of the country. So a guy in a U-Haul truck stops in Flagstaff at Carl's Jr and gets a burger. Decides he is just going to eat while driving. It is a sloppy mess so he is weaving a bit down the I-40 trying not to make too much of a mess in the truck. Highway patrol pulls him over. Normal procedure, the drug dog comes out. Yep, many pounds of pot in the back of the U-Haul. If not for Carl's Jr and the burger getting "all over the place", he probably would have never gotten busted! :-) [Reply]

yeah that's funny - I tell ya' a $4 triple from Steak & Shake is pretty damned hard to beat - get it with cheese + Tax it equals $4.85 with fries incld'd - I get a water which is a nice sized cup for free. That's the go-to - from time-to-time. [Reply]

I like the single cheese there but I do burp that grease taste all night after. It is worth it.
I love a patty melt and Freddy's is my go to for that. [Reply]

That's a damn fine looking burger. I used to bowl nearby every week. Never heard of this place. Gotta check it out.... [Reply]
