Best Burger/Grease pit NWI

[ROLEXrifleman]

In an effort to keep our discusion in the political section on track I'll post this here.

So what say theeeeeeee:

My Choices:

1)Red Robin: Gucamole Burger "MONSTER"
2)Penn Station: 13" Philly Mushrooms, Onions, Heavy Mayo
3)Schoop's: Double Mickey, Lettuce, Tomatoe, Ketchup, heavy mayo

Honorable mention: Any WhiteCastle with a grill over 10 years old!

My first choice would be Schoops, then Hooters. Before learning about Red Robins policy against gun owners today they would be number 1, but not anymore.

They gotta Schoops in NWI?

Is it affiliated with the place that used to be in Hickory Hills on 96th?

They got 2 that I know of. On Ridge in Munster 6 blocks from my house and one on Indianapolis just south of 169th in Hammond. No clue of affiliation

looked into it.... it's the same place.

AMAZING burgers.

If it wasn't limited to NWI it would be Bob and Claras tavern in Chicago Heights, only about 5 min. from the state line and the best burger I have ever had.

There's a Shoops down rte41 and 93rd in St John.......



Five guys in Schererville.....rte 30 and 41 in the old Blockbuster building....

I do like Red Robin.........

So far these places are great........not the "Best" just what we have..............room for improvement.

Schoops in Hobart, Portage, and Valpo as well. I guess Redamax isn't technically in NWI, but still the best place to get a burger in the summer.

Ditto. Worth the drive up the Red Arrow Highway for a Redamax. Schoops is always good.

NEVER had a decent burger at Red Robin, can't believe people even go there. Hooters has a good honest burger. Never tried Penn Station. Looking forward to trying Five Guys one of these days.

I used to love burgers at George's Tavern in East Chicago, but they closed a few years back.

We have a Schoops in Warsaw. I love their burgers. Reminds me of Whataburger's in the South West.

They have Schoops all over NWI. The Jalapeno Burger is awesome.


Culver's is one of the best fast food places out there too. They have good burgers, and even better frozen custard. I know there's one in Valpo, don't know where else in NWI. They have them in South Bend and Mishawaka too.

Aren't those all chains?

If I'm going to go to a chain, I'll just go to Portillo's.

 

[techno.m3]

for greasy, oniony, messy goodness go to powers in downtown fort wayne.

or five guys.

 

[ihateiraq]

steak n shake for the sole fact that they will feed me at 4 in the morning after an all nighter.

Hot Rods in Wheatfield or The Chocolate Shop in DeMotte

Another vote for Redamaks, darn good burgers!
Schoops and Culvers both have a good burger, they can be found in Michigan City in my area on HWY 421, both north of I-94.

Carlsons Drive In, great burgers, awesome food period! http://www.carlsonsdrive-in.com/

T-Bird Pub also has a rockn burger!

If I'm going to go to a chain, I'll just go to Portillo's.

Portillos is anti-gun. Why support people who oppose us?

Oh, and before anyone mentions the NRA posters on their walls please go do your homework. Those are not for National Rifle Association but rather for the socialist National Recovery Act that dramatically expanded our government.

FWIW, Schoops is locally owned, started in Munster on Ridge Road, there are now a couple dozen of them. Redamax is locally owned, I think they have only 1 shop.

Another that was missed, and I don't know why, is Miner-Dunn in Highland, awesome burgers, awesome fries.
