-Burger Tex
-Mighty Fine (from the Rudy's people)
-Elevation Burger
-P. Terry
-Five Guy$

A huge number of others I'm forgetting.

Ill add one to the this list and probably the best burger(s) I've had anywhere in the country.

Hopdoddy (there are several locations but I've always gone to the one at Anderson and MoPac)

Austin has almost too many to list. I agree.

Eating a burger with soy sauce on it is like eating a fried tofu burger.

I agree. We visited Hopdoddy while in Austin back in March and it was delicious!

Stomps in Bacliff.

Stomps should be good and compared to Tookies as after Hurricane Ike, while Tookies was shutdown, before it was decided to reopen, I hear there were a few from Tookies that opened Stomps.
I have never been to Stomps personally, I would suppose they are close to the same as Tookies, which means DARN GOOD!

I will also recommend Tookie's. It's our family favorite (3 generations of local Tookie lovers). Squealer is my favorite. Love the rings. Wife and FIL get their fries extra crispy.

Thanks for mentioning Stomps. Never heard of it before. I'll give it a shot. We don't usually head that far South on 146. I have much love for an excellent burger. We'll go check it out.

I knew a Shasta in high school. Not a common name I suppose.

I also enjoy a Beck's Prime burger over on Westheimer and Augusta under the big oaks on occasion. Don't get over there much anymore. Pretty pricey and I don't work close by as often.

Not much mentioned from Houston yet. In no particular order, and not necessarily all that I know...

The Counter (on Washington, not The Woodlands)
Bellaire Broiler Burger
Stanton's City Bites
Beck's Prime
Christian's
Lankford Grocery
Mittelstaedt's (the bar/restaurant/farm stand on Stuebner Airline)
Jax Burgers, Fries, & Shakes (not to be confused with Jax Grill, which used to be good...)

Oh yeah, forgot about the Bellaire Broiler and Jax.

Also, someone else mentioned Burger House. They are pretty good. There are more than one in Houston, not just the one on Hwy 3 at Ellington Field.

1. Mixed Up Burgers in Grand Prairie
2. Johnny B's in Southlake
3. Chris Madrid's in San Antonio
4. Ruddock's Grocery in Guadalupe (On 87 between Port Lavaca and Victoria). I dunno if they still do burgers, but when they did they are spectacular. Hopefully they are still open.

Just my .02,

Storm's in Lampasas is a great place for burgers.

Joe Lee's South Shore burger in Kemah gets my vote. Old school style burger. Millers Cafe in Clear Lake is also quite good.

Had forgot about them. Not bad burger at all. Didn't Elvis used to go there for cheese burgers when he was Stationed at Fort. Hood? They also have a location in Burnet. Can not even count the number of Saturday nights I hit that place in the late 80's.

I don't get out that way much (I grew up near Hobby) these days. There seem to be 4 Burger Houses around SE Houston.

For those of you around Baytown (maybe east of Baytown), there was a burger place in a gas station (Shell, Chevron, or maybe Exxon) right off of I-10 that was pretty good. Anybody know what it is/was?

In Boerne, I really like Cheesy Jane's

Cheesy Jane's in SA is good too. One the east side Biff Buzby's.

Mel's Country Cafe in Tomball is excellent. Red Robin is pretty good for a chain/franchise type place.

I've never had a burger at Mel's... The last time or two we tried to go there, the line was out the door.

The very-coarse-hair-in-the-iced-tea at Red Robin pretty much ended the trips there. I even have/had an unused $50 gift card for Red Robin...
