-- We're way overdue to discuss Steak and Shake in depth.

This is the best value + taste fast food out there, IMO.

Today I alternatively decided on a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit and a gigantic OJ (both were way above average) The sausage was well done - which I prefer. The Orange Juice was very refreshing.


Their lunch $4 options are a hell of a deal - occasionally I'll get the triple hamburger and fry after adding cheese and tax it's something like $4.86

Now I DO like Culvers, but all things in the mix; Steak and Shake is doing better things for the community by being MUCH more affordable.

What do you all like ordering at S&S...?

I need one of those forms.

Thanks for sharing.

Havent been there for quite a while due to convenience, but the Frisco Melt is just plain excellent, even if a double doesnt even amount to a quarter pounder... the secret is that super extra sweet Thousand Island dressing

Runners up, chili 3 and 5 way... very filling and tasty

Had a Smashburger at the Newark airport, I think it was. I liked it—much more than Steak and Shake's.

Never had S&S but I judge a burger place more off the fries.

You can have an awesome burger, but if your fries suck, I won't go back. Maybe that's weird?

I've covered Smash Burger experience on CP a couple of times in the past. I got a burger that literally had chunks of grill scrapings on it. So perhaps it was just an off-day - however it's not near the value of S&S - Now I am NOT a fan of S&S fries - but they're not god awful - you almost have to luck out and get them fresh. Culvers fries are turd too.

I have still never experienced Steak and Shake. I wanted to hit one on the way out of Fayetteville last fall but I ended up going to Sonic instead for reasons I can't remember.

Haven't eaten there in quite a while, but the bacon double w/ fries and cheese sauce is my shit. The cookies are usually really damned good, too. You can get all of that (w/ two cookies) for about $7.50 after tax.

Biggest issue I have with the food is that I feel like I need to use a Stridex pad after eating it. The wrapping on the burger transfers the grease everywhere and I feel like I've been perspiring oil once I'm done.

I have a Smashburger within a mile of my house and I've only been there once. There's better local hamburger joints around.
