My all-time favorite is still Mad Dog's in Austin.

Haven't been to Austin past few years, is Mad Dog's still open?

No idea. Haven't eaten there in probably 15 years, but that still stands out as my most memorable burger.

I find the Pointe burger to most closely resemble the Mad Dog burger. That may be why I like it so much.

Apparently, it is no more.

Up-N- Smoke BBQ House - Keller Texas.

To me a burger starts with quality meat cooked with just a tiny hint of pink in the center. Flavorful yet moist. Second I don't want it molested with condiments . I want it on the side so I can adjust to suit my desires . Third and most importantly is the bun! It must be almost a wheat and grilled to perfection. Never thick and dry, then delivered warm and fresh.
UpnSmoke delivers this Consistently.

mentioning a place in Southlake reminds me of another good burger just down the road from there. Johnny B's in Southlake. Good place.
